A PANTRY DOOR??!! Reacting to "Signs" by Nostalgia Critic

[@smugsneasel]

The dialogue he gave the aliens have stuck with me for years. I remember the syllables, the inflections and DEFINITELY their word for the almighty wood.

[@SapphireDragonDX]

"DOOGAH!"

[@ThePreciseClimber]

@@SapphireDragonDX Hmm. Sounded more like "TUCO!" or "FUKO!" to me.

[@hawkpunch]

"Ask for a desert eagle!" came right out of nowhere for me and cracked me up so hard. Did NOT expect that. Great reaction.

[@matthewaven3802]

Dude I watched that entire intro and I must say, you have got to be one of the kindest KZbinrs I've ever seen. Keep doing this as long as you enjoy it and do what you do enjoy.

[@theduckgoesmoo]

Awww thank you so much!!

[@hermannmakuta3311]

Please do Nostalgia Critics Lady in the Water Episode (For some Reasons its split into 2 Parts - But its ONE EPISODE)

[@drakeware655]

I think Critic was going through a copyright strike at the time, and one of the strike rules is that you can't upload a video more than 15 minutes

[@jeckjeck3119]

Human body is mostly water, they could have literally bleed on the aliens and it would kill them, LMAO.

[@nathanieldenson2054]

It is really funny to me that when the little girl asks for a glass of water and you go "Ask for a desert eagle" my first thought was that the glass of water was the better choice of weapon.

[@johnmichaelchance1151]

18:23 That was Alf, and yes he’s an alien.

[@DieselWeasel]

That's even what his name means: Alien Life Form

[@Elf_Ranger]

he really loves cats! especially with a side of applesauce

[@ericb9252]

While we wait for Toonami and Kids WB, I say we do another M. Night crazy movie, the fantasy that is Lady In The Water. That's Rory Culkin, Macaulay's little brother. 18:23 That's ALF, an alien from Melmac.

[@thehonestreviewer7754]

Probably should've warned him the review in question is split into 2 parts because Doug was suffering from a community guidelines strike at the time.

[@thehonestreviewer7754]

Happy Halloween, Duckman. In the spirit of the holiday I know how to scare you... (Pull out can of baked beans, open it up, and proceed to drink it)

[@theduckgoesmoo]

Pls don’t

[@thehonestreviewer7754]

OK. Instead, I'll use the beans to spell out a phrase that'll haunt you for the whole week. When Helluva Boss?

The NC's imitation of Kermit the Frog was more scary for me that the actual movie. Scary Movie 3 is actually the better movie ;p

[@SapphireDragonDX]

Signs DID make Charlie Sheen right about something.

[@ChamarM]

3:47 No it's his brother Rory Culkin

[@Pylo-ry6ff]

Yes. I have waited so long for someone else to react to this one. It's not really a scary one, but you should do his Lady in the Water review. It is the funniest Shyamalan movie ever. The critic has so much fun with it, and the open skit is one of my favorites. Edit: Actually, just watch all of his Shyamalan reviews. The happening and Devil reviews are also hilarious.

[@totallynotmozziesaccount8506]

My grandfather lived around where this movie was filmed. He shared this fact with pride, he also cut off his ring finger as a teenager, so it's probably the only source of pride in his life.

[@DarkknightChris]

Between the Critic making fun of Spider-Man 3 and the recent JonTron video comparing Star Wars: Attack of the Clones to the Hindenburg crash and ISIS, you can tell these are really old videos. Opinions towards them have changed over the years. That's Rory Culkin. Macaulay was in the height of his popularly in the early to mid 90s. M.Night Shyamalan was called "The next Spielberg", during the early 00s, Macaulay was an adult by then.

[@SapphireDragonDX]

Happy Halloween, Duck. And remember... "DOOGAH!"

[@peair2000]

Between these aliens and the Psyklos from Battlefield Earth, who's stupider?

[@SilverHairedFreak25]

At least the Psyklos (somehow) managed to conquer humanity.

[@trekkieraccoon3343]

This is by far one of his funniest reviews to me over the years. Cant wait for you to get deeper in the movie rabbithole via The Critic Kyle

[@TnT_F0X]

Scary movie 3 was the real end of the Scary movie franchise. I salute you president Neilsen if you ever do TheDuckGoesMoovies add scary movie 1 2 and 3 to the halloween week reactions... along with HalloweenTown and Hocus Pocus. cause you were a sheltered duckling and probably never saw any of them xD

[@YukoValis]

As bad and silly as this movie is, it doesn't hold a candle to Lady in the water. Which the Nostalgia Critic also reviewed. That movie will cause your brain to melt.

[@danielscott5673]

3:40 that's Rory Culkin, one of Macaulay Culkin's 2 younger brothers. the other younger brother, Kieran Culkin, who plays Fuller McCallister from Home Alone 1 & 2.

[@chrisbowers7523]

Duck goes moo, the Muppet KZbin channel is real .

[@thehowlinggamer5784]

I got into an argument with someone that lasted I don't know how long in the connent section of the original video. Idiot kept claiming he was part of the production if the movie saying that the dew and humidity that collects on your skin the second you step outside or walk in the grass at night during the late summer this supposedly takes place in for the corn to be so tall and still so green somehow miraculously wouldn't affect creatures supposedly so affected by water that it eats their skin away like acid. Said it was discussed during a production meeting, was never given any reasonable explanation as to such in the movie, and the idiot kept repeating he was there and it was discussed while the whole point was no real argument was given in the movie, thus q major plothole.

[@chriswihulu]

you know, that theory that the Aliens are actually Demons and that the water burns them because Gibson as a priest made it holy, is looking a lot better after reading... this...

[@thehowlinggamer5784]

@@chriswihulu Never heard of that theory, but that would make a whole lot of sense.

[@averagegamecritic]

Yes! I love it but acknowledge it’s crap. This or Leprechaun were my choices (Child’s Play technically they started for Xmas with Phelous, but it’s a horror movie) It’s nice you keep us clued in. I don’t know the ins and outs, so it helps to understand why sound goes out or you don’t do something or wait. Last, as Regenades React do, do you have like a week or two week waiting gap so the original videos have their views? I don’t know KZbin, so is that a thing?

[@tylerstokes4124]

Phoenix has looked mid 30s for like 20 years.

[@ghostewriter]

He doesn’t mention it but the little girl is the one leaving glasses of water around the house. Because...I dunno God told her to?

[@arlenfreeman3439]

She was raised on distilled water and won't finish any glass with the slightest impurity.

[@DamionStingerDrake]

One theory I saw about the ending of this movie is they weren't actually aliens but demons and that the water was holy water and this is was a test to restore Mel Gibson's characters faith.

[@HB-fq9nn]

How can they be Demons if they use Spaceships? Also, how can it be holy water if they simply got it from a tap? They aren't on sacred ground or anything, they're on a farm.

[@cjkalandek996]

@@HB-fq9nn In the case of the spaceships, did we actually SEE the spaceships outside of those lights in the sky? So, who knows what else they were? As for the water, remember the scene when Graham is telling his kids the stories of how they were born and in Bo's story, she didn't cry when she was born and all the nurses gasped at the mere sight of her, saying she looked like an "angel"? So, it's possible her taking a sip of the water and saying it's "contaminated" means *_she's_* the one contaminating the water; contaminating it for the aliens (or demons, in this case).

[@HB-fq9nn]

@@cjkalandek996 In regard to the lights, they are clearly flying saucers, not to mention that they leave crop circles that look exactly like crop circles we believe aliens would make. Also, even if the idea that the mother was making holy water simply by drinking it was correct, that’s unbelievably dumb writing, which I guess is par the course for Shyamalan. If they want us to think they’re demons, they shouldn’t try so hard to make them exactly like stereotypical aliens. Furthermore, if these are demons, then they just got beaten by Earth’s forces in just a few days. Satan’s must be slacking.

[@cjkalandek996]

Okay, a lot of the things that NC points out in this movie that don't make sense (to him) are literally ALL explained by Chris Stuckmann in his video on _Signs._ *How come the alien can't get out of the pantry?* The alien that shows up at the very end that Merrill beats the shit out of is the one that was in the pantry, so he obviously got out. *How did the alien that got out of the pantry know how to go to Graham's house?* It's said in the movie that the crop circles are landmarks for the aliens building a map so they could coordinate their attack. So, the alien was going to the nearest crop circle to find his buddies only to find out he was left behind. *Why couldn't the aliens just bust through the windows and wooden planks?* Uh...if you look at the windows in their house in the 3rd Act, they've all been broken into. So, the wooden planks didn't hold them back forever. They just only delayed the inevitable. *Why did the aliens come to a planet that's mostly covered in the one thing that could kill them?* First of all, does EVERY alien species in science fiction have to be perfectly adaptable to our atmosphere and resources? NO. Because if that's the case, then these things would be unstoppable. Second of all, Chris Stuckmann said in his video on the movie that the problem is we're not considering the possibility that these aliens were desperate to go anywhere to find the resources they need to survive. Maybe this was a race that was on the brink of extinction and they were doing whatever they could salvage themselves. Also, if you watch the found footage scene where they watch the alien walk out of the bushes and past a corner, you can actually see it in the bushes, looking like it's trying to see if the coast is clear to make a break for it. Maybe that alien saw some of its own kind perish due to being on Earth too long and succumbing to the moisture of our atmosphere. After all, that military guy talking to Merrill says whoever or whatever they've been seeing around the neighborhood is doing something called "probing", which is a military tactic of where you send a few scouts ahead to check the layout before you make your full move. So, that alien in the found footage scene has probably been on Earth for a week at most and realizes something is wrong. Third of all, there's an interesting theory out there that the aliens are actually NOT aliens, but demons. And the reason they seem to really gravitate towards Graham and his home is because of his lost faith, thus making him more vulnerable to a spiritual attack. And it's not just the water that was deadly to that one alien, but it was the water Bo left all around the house and Graham tells Bo the story of how she was born and the nurses and doctors all said she looked like an "angel". Plus, water is seen the Spirit of God in the Bible, so if the aliens are demons, THAT'S why the water could kill them. *Why did God have to kill a reverend's wife so he can lose his faith all just so he can regain it again but with his wife still dead?* The Bible literally says that the Lord gives and the Lord takes and everything happens for a reason. This review is one of the reasons I started hating Nostalgia Critic.

[@HB-fq9nn]

These aliens are still very inept if planks of wood could hold them at bay for hours. Also, that's a lot of hoops to jump through to justify the reasoning behind the aliens trying to take over the planet covered in their main weakness. Plus, since when do Demons use Spaceships? Not even Warhammer 40K gives its Daemons spaceships. Despite that being a bible message, it still makes for a bad character arc, since the turmoil is caused by God, and by the end they end up back to where they were before God made them suffer. He essentially learns nothing, because if God didn't kill his wife, then he would still believe that everything happens for a reason. God broke a man just so he could teach him a message he already knew (since he's a Reverend). Just because it's in the Bible, doesn't mean it makes for a good character arc. Also, I think you take this film way too seriously if you start hating a person simply because he has a different opinion about a movie.

[@lukelichtenthal5407]

The movie still blows and just another reason Shaymalan fails. I mean seriously would it kill him just once to let his movie characters act like actual people instead of emotionless robots?
