* I may be the only one who thinks so, but Film Brain's rant at the end of ''[[Seven Pounds]]'' deserves a spot on this list:

** The opening deserves a mention too:

** Especially since, according to [https://web.archive.org/web/20100810113436/http://blip.tv/file/3975694/ his commentary], he was afraid it would be "[[Equilibrium]] [[Internet Backdraft|times ten]]," and ''still'' didn't hold back.
** And in the commentary, he reveals that someone in his family committed suicide, so doing the review was very hard for him and he worried he was too close to the material to make it a good video, on top of his fear of the film's fans. Doing the commentary also allows him to let out the rage he was holding back on during filming, and you can hear genuine anger as he brings up how Will Smith's character has had a better life than him and could do so much more than save seven people if he lived, finishing with "He has NO RIGHT!"
*** Specifying further, just ''admitting'' the personal nature of the review to his viewers took serious guts.

* "I think I'd better take that down." At the end of his ''Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'' review, he tears down the ''Transformers'' poster that had been hanging on his wall from the very start.

** Not to mention that he ''destroys'' one scene where a reporter calls out the [[Big Bad]] for not [[Think of the Children|thinking of the children]], explaining why that trope is stupid as hell and [[Straw Man Has a Point|even sides with the villain]] in the argument. And this leads into him pointing out the [[Broken Aesop]].
** Also his [[Precision F-Strike]] before he points out how hypocritical the anti media violence message is by pointing out it was made by lionsgate (famous for producing the Saw series) and the WWE (A wrestling company) and the fact that the marketing for the movie was built around its violence.
** The irony in that is even better from the WWE standpoint; when WWE was in the Attitude Era (known for rampant sex and violence), they mocked the [[Moral Guardians|Parents Television Council]] by trotting out the Right to Censor.
* The opening of the crossover for ''[[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (
