Anime Abandon: The Guyver (W/ Nostalgia Critic) 

Right? I love how even the costume is like "what the fuck am I looking at?" Speaks for the whole audience.

+Adam Hoffman even the heisei era?

i read your comment and it made me laugh til wheezy. the thought of Kamen Rider made more cheesy. i could have just said 'lol' but thats too easy. So I made up a rhyme that was breezy. Boooooy!

+Adam Hoffman Yeah except Kamen Rider is great

I mean the manga is better thoo

Krow From The Krow's Nest Oh, I like Kamen Rider, but you know most of the mainstream would find it cheesy. I embrace the cheese, myself.

And his acting. God, you really believe EVERY and each one of his stupid faces he makes How can you not love this guy?

Kevin hates fun.

ugh my ears but like NC commitment to the scream

CASPER!!!!

It takes guts to run stupidly through a convention and embarass yourself where there are already a ton of other nerds um...doing the same shit? I get where you were going with it, but if there would be anywhere to flock around insanely and feel no pressure to be judged its a convention lol

matt fahringer hey to each there own, no need for violence. Plenty other, better things to watch and enjoy.

bajan13k I just lit a candle for your friends soul, may he find redemption and peace.

You, sir/madame/undecided, have just won the Internets, and provided me with much joyous mirth!

Don't tell me he was sent here to kill Sean Schemmel

***** now, you make me want to watch it....

You too?

docdave15 That's a good one!

I think he looks more like William H Macy

who???

Hell, I'm pretty sure Sci-Fi channel already plays Guyver now and then.

@@AkuTenshiiZero It used to

bigoldinosaur ha

he's with the guy he believes is Satan himself, would you be nice to him?

That was part of the joke. As I recall, a lot of reviewers got together to do crossovers during some con or other (hence why they're in a hotel room), and they all had a theme of being mean to each other (also explaining why Bennett yelled at Hebert at 19:48).

@@HiddenWindshield I've also seen that when Nostalgia Critic teamed up with Todd In The Shadows to review "The Wizz", and in a crossover between Todd and The Rap Critic.

Big Steve 300 I reviewed the live action Fist of the North Star. You should check me out if you ever get the chance.

+Big Steve 300 he said whenever he does that it would be a crossover review with Spoony and The Cinema Snob

Aka the sequel that was good as the director of Guyver 2: Dark Hero actually did his homework and made the successful attempt of doing a decent American Adaption of Bioboosted Armor: Guyver not only was the fight choreography better, so was the script/writing finally Sean was acting more like Sho aka hated killing but was willing to get brutal and kill bad guys if need be, special effects, costumes, and most importantly we had a far much better cast including a then-unknown David Hayter as lead protagonist Sean.

Groovy Dude Yeah, I'm not a huge manga fan, but I watched a bit of the 12 part OVA anime as a kid, and the second movie seemed to take a lot more cues from the anime and manga, and took itself a bit more seriously. The thing with Guyver is that I get the feeling that that it's more-or-less essentially an "adult Power Rangers" for lack of better word. Fundamentally, it even kinda follows the same sort-of formula and structure as a Power Rangers series. (Introduce alien weapon-suit that a teenager acquires, introduce villain that generates monsters-of-the-week for him to battle, have a monster-of-the-week battle for a few episodes, have a plot-episode peppered in here and there... repeat.) I think they tried too much to lean on and exploit the inherent silliness of the whole concept with this film and took it too far. Whereas the second film did the smart thing and realized that the appeal of the series was that it took a relatively silly concept and played it as straight as possible. So they did a much better job and delivered a much better film the second time around. (Granted, the second film is still kind of a bad movie... but it's a lot of fun to watch, has some cool low-budget effects and monsters, a few genuinely good action sequences and is entertaining overall without being too painful like this one.) Plus, having David "Solid Snake" Hayter playing the lead character is a lot of fun. (I wouldn't be surprised if he did some uncredited script-work as well.)

+Eamonn Deane huh. Pretty neat

The OAV was my first full Anime experience, and still can't be matched. If only we could get a complete story but Guyver's like Berserk, going on hiatus and publication hell, without an ending in sight.

+Cameron Alidor I know he was only 54 too

David Hayter is in this movie?

He's the damn lead actor.

for the sequel I mean.

gato23 Oh please no :D. DAVID.....why.

its a actually WAY better than this piece of crap. darker even.

It was too "expensive" so they decide to use CGI, god i missed the practical effects

+Scsigs Critic watched that?

Yeah. Look it up. It's hilarious.

Not to mention the starring role in the sequel went to David Hayter, a.k.a. Solid Snake! :D

the 2 is awesome!

Leon Kennedy because, the force and the dark side are a pathway to many abilities, some consider to be unnatural

because he was popular then

I think it's fair to say you could've done much worse :)

+xhandbasketx Think there might be a chance judging by the stinger of the Kekko Kamen review, soon.... can't wait. :Squees:

Anime abandon Speed Racer

+tabuu9 Well, we all know that now. Personally waiting for another Sage and Cinema Snob crossover.

+PKMN37 In general yes. The Guyver Dark Hero/Guyver 2 is alot better. (My opinion of course)

+PKMN37 In general yes. The Guyver Dark Hero/Guyver 2 is alot better. (My opinion of course)

+WarriorTRZ I agree, the second one was an improvement despite being a direct to video release. it was as tonally confused and openly embraced the camp with a much better mix of Hong Kong styled fight sequences. it was just more fun to watch and remains as one of my favorite anime adaptations. Personally I think it deserves a second chance.

um the rurouni kenshin trilogy wants to say something

Maybe if Hollywood and Japan worked together. Especially if it's an anime that has a setting outside of Asia. But that doesn't mean Cowboy Bebop. DO NOT MESS UP COWBOY BEBOP.

Someone actually did compare this to Venom.

Dune :)

Technically, Ben 10 was a rip-off way before the Guyver. Ever hear of "Dial H for Hero"? It's almost the exact same concept: a young boy comes across a device enabling him to change into several different superheroes for a short amount of time. If anything, Ben 10 is a rip-off of both "Dial H for Hero" and the Guyver....

BeelzeRider but imo better

matt fahringer no it isn't

Dial H for Hero has never received the respect it deserves. recently, the most merecne tmand modern apperances of The Dial H or roby reed were in the comic adaptation off the teen titans comic H-E-R-O and in the new 52 comic dial H. is currently in comic book limbo

+BlueWaffle1929 The first series I ever watched and it remains one of my favorites

Your wish came true. They reviewed the new speed racer movie together

Really? Great!

Y, they’re acting

It's a cross over though so the rules don't really count here.

Still garbage for so many reasons.

...Yeah. Have you by any chance seen Kamen Rider?

the movie Dune (1984) based on American Epic Science Novel named the same thing Dune (novel, 1965).

Agreed. They actually got a real fight choreographer for that one

Was John Kerry evil?

Who even is John Kerry?

An evil globalist warhawk politician that helped destroy Libya/Syria back in 2011, and is now pushing the climate change (scam) agenda to enact a "carbon tax" on people. @@matttestani8105

nezerac There are actually 3 live action movies i think....
