- Top Ten Worst Disney Sequels

"Chick: Interesting that when the Beast acts like an asshole like this, it always ends up fine despite him learning the lesson over and over. Every time I try this with a damsel it never pans out. Chick: Wow, I sure do have a bad disposition. I think I need to be fixed. Todd: You know, this didn't work the first five times you did this, Nostalgia Chick. I need to go to the bathroom. Chick: (drunkenly singing while holding a teacup in the air) Oh, oh, inanimate object! Todd: You want me to go to the bathroom in that?"
 * cut to Todd tied up again*

- Top Ten Worst Disney Sequels

""Entertainment is the only product in our kids' lives where parents will go "So what if it's crappy? It's just for my children." You don't say that about anything else in their lives. "What? It's just a car seat! So what if the belt barely works?" "What? It's just food." And do you know why that is? Is it because you want your kids or yourself to be enriched? No. It's because kids are stupid, and you don't care what they watch, you just want them to shut up. So you can blame Disney for going crazy with direct-to-video shit but you know what? It's your fault, parents, for buying shitty awful movies for your kids based on the standards your company used to uphold. Oh wait! You don't care, because kids are stupid, and they want the same shit over and over, and you're okay with them watching shitty movies.""

Nella: I mean it's not like I'm getting paid for this, or letting you use my cable or... Chick: Gotta go do another review that you're not in see you later. [runs off] Nella: ...or letting you wash your clothes in my washer/dryer..."

- Sister Act

"Nun!Nella: It's not as if I did all those dishes in your name when I should have been doing them in the name of our Lord. Chick: [facepalming] Not the Catholic guilt again. Nun!Nella: Or all those times I watched your dog when you ran off to stalk Todd in your futile attempts at fornication. Chick: It's not fornication if we were married in a previous life. Nun!Nella: Oh don't let me judge you, God will do that for me."
