If he'd watched one he might have known deserted streets was pretty much par for the course of the show. It's interesting to hear a point of view from someone who isn't familiar with the episodes though and most critics seem to come to the same conclusion. He was spot on about the "answer the telephone" bit; it doesn't make sense and misses the target completely. Uma Thurman is so bloody useless in that scene too.Cariheart wrote:Yes, he's clearly passionately pissed over the movie. Shame he has not seen the tv version, maybe then he'd understand that surrealism is a major component of the show & along with the banter- part of the charm.Dandy Forsdyke wrote:Something called Nostalgia Critic reviews the Avengers film with annoying sarcastic loud person. Why is screaming effing and blindsing expletives supposed to be amusing?
Subsequently, I'll have to agree with this comical fool that it was a lousy film adaptation.
The film was made by people that pretended to get the show but really didn't.
I didn't know the full episodes were YouTube - thanks.Andrew Pixley wrote:Check it out if you ever get chance. Absolute gem of a series - imaginative, stylish, witty, fun ... and effectively slaughtered at birth by BBC scheduling.Whiskers wrote:Virtual Murder? I'm afraid I don't remember it at all.
I can't see it ever getting a commercial release, so hope you enjoy the first episode. Got me hooked!
