Line 82:
* [[Butt Monkey]]: While he tries to act like a successful [[Bad Boss]] during crossovers, either the others get the upper hand or his own patheticness does him in.
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: The look on his face after he just can't get up the nerve to hold the Chick's hand in "Thanks For The Feedback" (and she doesn't notice) is almost depressing.
* [[Cannot Tell a Joke]]: When whatever it is refuses to give him any more film clips for ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' and tells him to actually make people laugh on his own, he's completely clueless about what to do.
* [[Can't Act Perverted Toward a Love Interest]]: Before his [[Freak-Out]] at the end, the date with the Chick was probably the first time we saw him mind-splittingly shy. Having [[The Masochism Tango]] benefits them much more.
* [[Can't Get Away with Nuthin']]: {{spoiler|The Critic never suspected that God would be watching his "Old vs. New" video of ''[[The Ten Commandments]]'' vs. ''[[The Prince of Egypt]]''. He thought God was a benevolent and kind being, but God didn't let him get away with that statement.}}
Line 88:
* [[Can't Hold His Liquor]]: Five minutes into the ''[[IT]]'' review and the audience was already spinning. Five minutes ''later'', he's having to knock his head on the desk to get some sense back into his brain.
** Even earlier in the Snob/Phelous crossover, he was drunk and weepy by 6pm, not even knowing who Rob was, messier than usual, craving Ninja Turtles (even the third movie) and crying that he used to like ''[[The Garbage Pail Kids Movie]]''. Snob called it "shockingly depressing" and Phelous wanted to hang himself.
** When playing the ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'' [[Drinking Game]], he passes out after six shots of Malibu.
* [[Cant Keep A Secret]]: He might have [[Undying Loyalty]], but his promise to Chester that he'd keep the Search For The Necronomicon just between them lasted for about twenty seconds.
* [[Casanova Wannabe]]: Before he got a [[Fan Service Pack]] and morphed into a [[Chivalrous Pervert|perverted]] [[Ethical Slut]], he was portrayed as an unattractive, overweight, chauvinist prick.
Line 147:
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Remember that video with ''Bebe's Kids''? Remember how he complained so much? Remember how he did not complete the game? Apparently he is a good enough gamer to slam Angry Joe into next week in ''Marvel vs Capcom 2''.
{{quote|'''Angry Joe:''' This man WHUPPED MY ASS!"}}
** He gets a [[Break the Haughty]] [[Curb Stomp Battle]] once Joe gets a [https://web.archive.org/web/20130923125609/http://www.blisteredthumbs.net/2011/02/mvc3-grudge-match-angry-review/ brand new joystick though].
* [[Crusty Caretaker]]: The only other job he's had is Doug's factory cleaner gig (this was when Doug was still in school) and he got in trouble for hitting on "Amanda" too much.
* [[Cute but Cacophonic]]: In his early days. His normal voice wasn't animated enough so when the shouting/screeching happened, it made him seem more like a howler monkey.
Line 187:
** Teddy Ruxpin forces a gun in his mouth and makes him write a more positive review, killing him when he screams for help.
** Before Ma-Ti comes in to take the brunt of the abuse in the brawl, he spends most of the beginning on the floor. Both [[Chronic Hero Syndrome|Linkara]] and the [[Violently Protective Girlfriend|Chick]] joined in specifically to save him.
** Looks to be the case in Linkara's [["Previously On..."]] for ''Countdown'', with Chester in control and shot with [[HitlerLow-Angle CamShot]]s, and Critic being shown in the opposite camera angle and surrounded by darkness. He recovers (with snark) better in this instance than he does the others.
** The amount of [[I Have You Now, My Pretty]] moments he's been subjected to would make this list even longer.
* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]: He's nearly always barefoot when playing around in his house.
Line 252:
* [[FBI Agent]]: Special Agent in the Department of Criticism, if you believe the ''[[The X-Files]]'' expy intro.
* [[Fetish]]: Plenty. As stated in a few reviews; strong, toppy women, charming black guys, masochism, being humiliated, dildos, roleplay, bondage, fingering, crossdressing (for some reason ''this'' is the one he's ashamed of the most), fictional incest couples that are the right age and not parent-child,<ref>he says this is the only way He-Man and She-Ra could get his attention</ref> the Chick's firey temper and [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick|six-breasted cats from outer space]].
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20110902131609/http://whytheyrehot.com/post/376763884/why-hes-hot-hes-the-nostalgia-critic-not This] "Why He's Hot" entry makes a pretty good case for his appeal.
* [[Fluffy Tamer]]: He hates meant-to-be-liked animals in movies (and they usually hate him right back), but falls completely in love with the gross ones, like the targ from ''Star Trek III''.
* [[Foe Yay]]: Invoked with the Nerd. "Nerd-on-Critic action" (which was lampshaded by Chester), the retrospective with "[[Nightwish|Ghost Love Score]]", one of the TGWTG women telling them to make out in the Brawl bloopers... what more could you ask for?
Line 289:
** "[[Tom and Jerry|A cat and mouse]] are driving a ship trying to save the daughter of [[Indiana Jones]] while being chased by a purple people eater, a dog on a skateboard, a performing ship captain, his hand puppet Squawk, two Mexican wrestlers and a doctor riding an ice cream cart. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the [[Mind Screw|Mind Fuck]]."
** He does this in his ''[[Jingle All the Way]]'' review. He has a "WE DON'T CARE" outburst when the chase scene pisses him off.
** The opening of "[https://web.archive.org/web/20130924030936/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/30972-the-other-animated-titanic-movie The OTHER Titanic animated movie]" is a parody of [[Star Wars|Darth Vader's]] birth in ''[[Revenge of the Sith]]'', where Rob dressed as Palpatine tells the Vader-Critic that he has to review the movie... cue [[Big No]].
* [[Green-Eyed Monster]]: Part of why he's a [[Bad Boss]]. This is the only thing he has so he's freaked out by people going into his territory and doing it better than him (or so he thinks).
** With [[Teens Are Monsters|what happened to him in that time period]], he's pretty sarcastic towards the lead's problems in ''[[Airborne]]'':
Line 648:
* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: Mostly [[The Nostalgia Chick]]. Naturally, she likes beating on him just as much.
** Although it seems he only does this with women who can give as good as they get. He's disgusted with ''[[Good Burger]]'' for Carmen Electra getting beaten up and having it played for laughs.
* [[Yaoi Fangirl|Yaoi Fanboy]]: He sees the [[Ho Yay]] in [[Superman|Superman/Lex Luthor]], [[The Lord of the Rings|Frodo/Sam]], [[American Idol|Simon Cowell/Ryan Seacrest]], [[Batman|Batman/Robin]] and [[TMNT|Leonardo/Raphael]].
* [[Yank the Dog's Chain]]: Looking forward to ''[[The Neverending Story (film)|The Neverending Story]]'' theme at the end of ''[[The Neverending Story (film)|The Neverending Story]] 3'', Critic? {{spoiler|How about a montage of extreme [[Character Derailment]] instead?}}
** When he starts to be sure that ''[[Jingle All the Way]]'' has ended on at-least-not-so-bad note, the movie proves him wrong. He doesn't take it well.
** He was on the verge of solving world hunger and cure all unknown diseases when ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'' popped into his head and broke all concentration.
** After having an adorably fun time with the creators of ''[[Animaniacs]]'', he fucks up at the end because of an immature request.
** In ''[[Simon Sez]]'', when [[Obscurus Lupa]] accepts him not wanting to do a crossover with her, he's almost heartbreakingly delighted that someone actually ''listened'' to him. Of course she's only messing around.
Line 919:
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: So far.
