** Of course, it also had a bit of self criticism added to it.
*** According to [[Little Kuriboh]], most of the "Abridged 101" video was self criticism.
** In a bit of a subversion, [[Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series|Little Kuriboh]] and [[Naruto the Abridged Series|MasakoX and Vegeta3986]] seem to like taking not-really-subtle digs at each other...but they're actually almost certainly intended as [[Shout -Out|Shout Outs]], judging from the fact that they occasionally ''guest star'' in each other's shows: this means that at least one joke about ''[[Naruto the Abridged Series]]'' was actually said by ''the guy that made it''.
*** The joke in question would likely be the one in Episode 29, when Tristan decides to watch the newest episode of ''Naruto:TAS'' and proclaims it the best internet parody series ever. The clip he watches itself looks like a cooperative dig, aimed at people who think calling somebody "emo" is inherently funny.
** Abridged Series do this all the time, even the more obscure ones. Hbi2k and Khenpoe actually justify the existence of their ''[[Berserk Abridged|Berserk]]'' and ''Bleach'' series by saying they were tired of watching crappy parodies; Bennett The Sage called ''Code Geass'' a pussy abridged series; and Megami33 proclaimed [[Sailor Moon Abridged|her series]] the only good one on Youtube.
Line 44:
* "''[[Pacman]]: [[The Movie]]'' by [[Uwe Boll]]". Trailer is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWL6j0SvqV0 here].
* Screwattack took a jab at the viewers who refuse to click a link to the daily Hard News on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBBA2gHbA78 a Dec. 18 YouTube posting.]
* At least one of the [[Whateley Universe]] authors have it in for ''[[Twilight (Literature)|Twilight]]''. The typical fourteen-year-old girls at [[Super -Hero School|Whateley Academy]] love the books and can't wait for a movie to come out; the sophisticated kids with the advanced literature backgrounds despise the books.
* [[College Humor]]'s [http://www.collegehumor.com/video/3980096/we-didnt-start-the-flame-war "We Didn't Start The Flame War"] (itself an [[Affectionate Parody]] of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start The Fire) is a big [[Take That]] against Internet [[Fan Dumb]].
* There's a reason that the [[The Salvation War|Ninth Circle of Hell]] has a spot for Robert McNamara... also see ''[[The Big One]]''.
Line 68:
** Also, the only movie available to watch in Hell is [[High School Musical]].
** Eddie Cohen, being an not-so-affectionate parody of [[Twilight (Literature)|another fictional vampire]], is chock full of these. Sarah, the closest thing to a love interest Eddie has, could also count, seeing as her independance and ability to fend for herself effectively makes her the "anti-Bella".
* [[Akinator]] has no opinions on his own on the characters, real and fictional, he's guessing; but since his knowledge base is made up of contributions by millions of people worldwide, his questions tend to betray the sympathies of the Internet at large. So, when you're trying to guess [[George W. Bush]], Akinator will innocently base his guess off questions such as "Is your character arrogant?" or "Is your character generally disliked?"
** Also, the picture for the character "You" (the player) depicts an ape.
* Network Executives are NOT well liked on the [[Nerdist Podcast (Podcast)|Nerdist Podcast]]
Line 79:
* Metokur is like this most of the time towards deviants they write insulting articles about, sometimes it's so horrible the artists have to deactivate their accounts. Metokur = jerkass central.
* The creators of the ''[[Global Guardians PBEM Universe]]'' '''really''' don't like the New England Patriots football team. A football-themed superhero named "The Patriot", who based his costume on the team's uniform, is seen by the general public as more of a dirty-fighting, grand-standing loudmouth with no actual talent, rather than as an effective crime-fighter.
** According to the settings timeline, shortly after the Patriots pulled off the infamous "[http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowplow_Game:Snowplow Game|Snow Plow Play]]", a group of supervillains (all of whom were major Miami Dolphins fans), hunted down and murdered the entire team's lineup. It was nearly ten years before the owners restarted the franchise, and the team has been at the bottom of the NFL rankings since that point.
* [[SCP Foundation (Wiki)|SCP Foundation]] has [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1550-j SCP-1550-j] which warps reality and turns it into [[X Men]]. It does take several jabs at the series:
