Legend of Zorro - Nostalgia Critic 

Darth Zaida I can't imagine what happened in that review

Why, what did they do?

Doug beat a bunch of people to death

Darth Zaida Neighbor 3: That’s nothing. He was in my old neighborhood before we both moved here. You should have seen how he was reviewing Casper

I'm pretty sure in the Cat in the Hat commentary Rachel said "the neighbors think we're a porn studio"

megamarsonic Me: Wait, what?

megamarsonic 10:38!

Batman: "I can do gasoline drawings on a bridge!"

Tristan Hartup "WE DON'T CARE"

"I am so done with this gig."

Geoff Jacobs Yeah, and marriage only sucks if the relationship is unhealthy somehow. But Legend of Zorro falls into the depressing trope of man-freaks-out-and-abandons-wife-over-problem-that-could-be-easily-talked-out. So, Zorro, you want to look like an idiot, too?

I went on HBO Max to see if Mask of Zorro was there and I read the Legend of Zorro description: "Alejandro de la Vega has spent the past few years fighting injustice as Zorro, but now he has to face one of his greatest challenges: A crisis in his marriage with Elena."

@@nkbujvytcygvujno6006 Lets be fair, Alejandro is being an idiot with his extended drunken moping, but Elena going along with the pinkertons without any attempts to explain things, and then taking her own potshots at him while sucking up to the most pretentious person in California, doesn't do her any favors. Also as the critic said, the Pinkertons' (who while it doesn't come up in the review, were killed off screen and we were only shown the bodies, so the bad guys figured them out at some unspecified point) plan makes no sense. I I mean Elena is a badass, and perfect for the mission skill wise, but they didn't know that. None of her awesome moments are common knowledge and they blackmailed her litterally the day after finding out Zorro's identity, which only raises questions, why were they spying on him if they weren't going to blackmail HIM or something. Instead they force a woman, who's skills they have no reasonable way of knowing about, who is married with a kid, to seduce and spy on the local leader of an extensive conspiracy. The Marriage wasn't the problem, the problem was a forced out of nowhere made up relationship conflict. Yes Elena wanted Alejandro to spend more time with their son, and apparently they had been going on about such things enough for Alejandro to buy that as the reason for the divorce, but I would have enjoyed a movie about Zorro and his family, and balancing those relationships along with the greater plot far more than the movie we got, where they only spend about 10 minutes as a family and the rest separated and mostly doing their own things. Imagine if the divorce wasn't part of the plan and the pinkertons forced the whole family into the plot- force Alejandro to bruce wayne it up to give Elena chances to sneak around, or her covering for him to go off as Zorro. Instead the family issues could focus on the kid, like Elena was worried about, as they try to be good parents while increasingly forced to be busy with the plot. Heck then you can get the kid to run into Zorro more often, you could end up with a dynamic where Alejandro takes an opportunity or two to be there for his son as Zorro in passing- where the son would understand that Zorro is busy while being ignorant to why is father is never around- making the reveal more poignant. Tone down the slapstick and give the villians more chances to be competant and or scary and that would go a long way to fixing the film.

RIP

I ship it

Malcom shoud be the new joker

No you literally did not

+Justin Forsythe that is a pretty balsy claim, do you have any proof to back it up?

Wish it had more moments like that

That's the case with 90% of all sequels

The first film was great and I haven’t even seen the sequel.

This sequel makes me appreciate the original black-and-white series even more.

@@moustachmallow559 And now that Diego is dead I don’t really see any interesting story which is why I skipped this one.

nah

Lucifer morningstar: really

Important to have references though.

Turned on? Like... you mean by the horse?

Original? As in 1920?

Adam Fletcher I heard in that she was turned on in the stable scene when he cuts her dress.

That sounds...Interesting to talk about *Exaggerated facial expression of shock and amusement*, but I would like a source, please

It's like hentai; it both disturbs and interests you. XD

Ares The Lord We all did.He was my favourite part

Ares The Lord I enjoyed his performance in that as well as The Skin I Live In.

Yeah and still like him in the spy kids movies

Yeah Banderas is actually a good actor. The problem is that this wasn't a good movie

Wasn't he still Zoro but as a cat

+omerta0414 CONSPIRICY!

PKMN37 yup

PKMN37 yup

Yep. At least they score a win or two every now and then.

Very true and they were also a lot of fun too.

He dose have a name

They really dropped the ball in the sequel on the bright side Catherine Zeta-Jones was the only good thing in this movie 😏

The Mask of Zorro is one of my favorite films. In addition to what you said, James Horner's score throughout is just phenomenal. 👍

Tristan Hartup Harley: no no my puddin!

oit

Don't worry. That's the GOOD Joker.

klimmr3021 Heath ledger or jack Nicholson

Heath Ledger

so zorro inspired batman ?

Actually it was the Mark of Zorro, not Mask, which didn't exist at the time Batman was created. But Mask was basically a remake/sort-of-sequel of Mark (both were origin stories but Mark was for Don Diego De La Vega, the original Zorro, and Mask was his retirement and succession by Banderez' character). But yeah- Batman was inspired by Zorro both in real life and in-universe.

Old comment but it was a coincidence. Terry's origin was an amalgamation of all three Robin's. Dick=kid who's parents are offed by a crime boss and wants revenge. Jason=kid who is a trouble maker. Tim=Kid who has living family and seeks out Batman to be a hero.

The Gay Blade

@@lessonmet5291 both actually and maybe even opera but still the creators of Batman actually said that Zorro inspireduch of batmans hide out.

Jules

Nah, at least SOME of those made some sort of sense. I bet the person who wrote this film though, "Those quotes would make sense in a Western right? They loved their religion in the US back then. I'll put it in..."

Ah prodastints they make no fucking sense

10/10 spelling

Anyone as Joker > Jared Leto as Joker

#MALCOMOVERLETO!!

Wait, was there a black guy playing Joker in cinemas already? I kinda want there to be

However Heath Ledger > everybody else who's ever been a superhero film.

@@Grim_Sister Not in the movies, but in the 2004 znimated series, it was Kevin Richardson.

Did they fire her?

So much like Zorro in this movie, she too was a drunk mess.

he should do it now in 2022, 7 years after the original

@@eldiegoxter7517 too late

would've been great with the new puss in boots but Doug's a coward

All of it

many or money?

We've got to have MUNEH

Zel G. Ka-ching! $$$

What we *nee-e-eed* is *more* *MONEY* ...

ChronoShenron like how the Tom Cruise Mummy was written by the same gays who wrote Transformers and the 1st 2 rebooted Star Treks. Clearly there is money to be made in being a hack.

Well years later Sony animation studio make Spider-Man into the spider verse

And now Sony took him back

Those are the writers that can ruin a franchise with just a script

That's probably the best way to describe this film

That’s actually a perfect analogy if you think of the history of the Batman films!

The show is fantastic, and not as campy or corny as this movie. It is simply fun.

"Why so OY!" That is the ship name

lol

Why aren't you hugging Judy in your prof pic? You two need to get together.

@@MrPiccoloku Who do you think you're talking to you knuckle head ;/??

Oh, trust me, a lot of bad movies I’ve seen or heard felt like parodies.

Take Batman & Robin, Ghostbusters, the mummy, MIB international, and Superman 3 & 4 which betrayed what came before them

Except SNL would actually make it funny.

@@jordangerardpotier Superman 4 is an enormous guilty pleasure.

Nah, SNL would make it funny. This is just stupid.

+Paradox Acres It's been so long that I completely forgot which one was the terrible one and which one was the great one lol.

SomethingCireMovies Yeah, I know what you mean. I keep reminding myself "You like the one with Anthony Hopkins" :)

it is supposted to demonstrate power, but they use it wrong, its completely unecesarry thus it does not add up with the rest of the movie. it's precisely what ruins most movies they make, its not the cliche thats wrong, its why its used. :F

I get your point, but I still think it's a boring cliche.

It's far better for the villain to demonstrate they have the ability to kill them without actually killing them. Since the entire point is to inspire loyalty through fear of death.

StephaniethePenguin Was he a henchman? He seemed more like an evil councilman.

I dunno. He was listening to the main bad guy so I assume he was a henchman.

Knowing the internet, there already is.

Rule 34

Fist of the Joeden empire. but in a catholic country? In 1850? wouldn't they become pariahs in their communities? even in the 1960s having a Divorce was like having a social stigma over your head at all times.

My20GUNS True which is why i said frowned upon. It happened and was only overlooked for very good reasons like for one if the man tried to kill his wife or if the wife slept around with every man in the town.

I am assuming then the divorce destroyed Alejandro's and Elena's reputation then...

They were probably treated like pieces of shit for that, but they could do it...

I know this is an old comment, but I don't think the legal ludicrousness was the divorce per se, but casual divorce. A woman at the time would (depending on her location) basically have to prove to a court that her husband was abusive, adulterous, a felon, a drunk, impotent, or had abandoned her. It was sure to be a messy process that would damage reputations even apart from the divorce itself.

You can barley compare these films and call them the same

One phrase explains it all, "family friendly"

@@adamloga3788 No question. Although it still kind of amazes me. I wonder what the people behind it thought would happen to families that saw the sequel first and went to check out the original movie...the one with the guy that keeps body parts in jars!

I thought Small Wonder was the last one.

I thought there was at least one more after it? Other than the WTR episodes, I swear I remember another review following this one.

***** There were. I meant full blown reviews though

+Todd The Toddler Howard because copyright is a bitch

+Scott Sandler RIP

Then God help us all.

***** ZORRO, ZORRO!!! GOT RAPED BY THE CREATOR OF THE THE GREEN DC SUPERHERO!!!

+Mats Tenor holy crap yes XD funny as shit rite ther

Mad Max for sure

What were you trying to say?

The Jam Man I'm saying that Ghost Protocol & Rogue Nation puts in a lot of effort when it comes to stuntwork.

+Alex Aceves ah. Gotcha.

True but, IIRC, NC was referring to 90s action movies when he made that comparison.

That's because he's the Joker. Unexpected is how he rolls.

My boy didn't growl but he did got up from his nap

I know right, it actually sounded like something the Joker would do minus the gay relationship.

wdym?

Joker in fact is quite thoughtrough. A genius. A made one, but still very intelligent... HE MAKES SENSE- in his realm.

I thought the Joker's purpose(according to himself, mind you) was to spread chaos?

Especially since Batman was inspired by Zorro.

I mean, especially in the first season, they could actually be occasionally threatening. He'll, the whole reason that you're so hung up on Ash's Pikachu is that it managed to make them blast off for the first time.

He makes eggman's robot assistants from Sonic x look intimidating

just because they are requested does not mean they are granted.

Did you not see the part about making a "donation" to the church?

+Mike “Deck” Minkov Sometimes straight-up happened too. My mom roped me into watching a few episodes of "Who Do You Think You Are" and one person had a relative who divorced like 3 times over her life.

And if I remember correctly women could also get an annulment if the husbands dick didn't work, since marriages were mostly just about makin babies and establishing a family the husband was bound to care for. There's some other BS about not conceiving a child within a certain amount of time, but I don't remember the specifics of it.

+Capt. Tin Zorro! Zorro! So drunk he cant even walk...

I'd collapse and throw up right after the intro songs ends... XD The refrain have ''Zorro'' sung at least 4 times!

Do I look like I have Brain cells to spare?

I don't where am i but i have this video opened and alcohol next to me, what happened :-D

Christ, you'd for after the first minute or so. It's in the opening song around a dozen times.

Hi, Phil Swift here with Flex Tape! The super-strong waterproof tape! That can instantly patch, bond, seal, and repair! Flex tape is no ordinary tape; its triple thick adhesive virtually welds itself to the surface, instantly stopping the toughest leaks. Leaky pipes can cause major damage, but Flex Tape grips on tight and bonds instantly! Plus, Flex Tape’s powerful adhesive is so strong, it even works underwater! Now you can repair leaks in pools and spas in water without draining them! Flex Tape is perfect for marine, campers and RVs! Flex Tape is super strong, and once it's on, it holds on tight! And for emergency auto repair, Flex Tape keeps its grip, even in the toughest conditions! Big storms can cause big damage, but Flex Tape comes super wide, so you can easily patch large holes. To show the power of Flex Tape, I sawed this boat in half! And repaired it with only Flex Tape! Not only does Flex Tape’s powerful adhesive hold the boat together, but it creates a super strong water tight seal, so the inside is completly dry! Yee-doggy! Just cut, peel, stick and seal! Imagine everything you can do with the power of Flex Tape!

I don't get. wuts wrong with stunt? I'm prolly overlooking something simple lol

When Your Body Is Ready Even Pistachio Disguisey, the "Master of Disguise" from the pathetic amoebalike substance of a movie called "Master of Disguise" has better disguises than Zorro. And what a coinkidink, both of these movies were reviewed by Nostalgia Critic and both of them contained Shrek references!

The problem's the kid. Terribly written

The problem's the kid. Terribly written

because zorro is otherwise terribly written. he got saved in the first movie too but nowhere near as often and he was still an intimidating badass.

Because the legendary Zorro is being saved by a little kid who is his son. That’s hella embarrassing.

At least GB 2 had actual funny moments and shit-your-pants scares.

Ghostbusters 2 was just as adult as the first.

What a country!

+Hezekiah Bennetts Reading reponse's like this actually makes me ponder if anyone even bothered to watch TDKR before tearing it apart for the stupidest reasons possible. Literally none of what you put down was actually true,.

Personally, I blame TDK more than TDKR. What was the lesson in that film? "Batman is the silent guardian, the watchful protector..." And then BAM! No longer Batman. Imagine Luke Skywalker coming away from ESB and saying, "You know what? I'm going back to farming." Makes for a bit of a crap movie, doesn't it?

Hezekiah Bennetts That's not the same thing at all. The reason Bruce stopped being Batman is spelled out in one line of dialogue "The Batman wasn't needed anymore, We won" He didn't abandon Gotham when it still needed him, He simply achieved what he set out to do, provided a symbol to shake Gotham out of apathy, He never set out to be Batman for the rest of his life in that series. The lie about Harvey Dent needed to have a concrete result of some sort or else, What would have been the point?

The film does have a host of problems, though. Anything after the last fight with Bane isn't worth watching. That lame twist? Bah

YOU LOGICAL BASTARD!

+angelowl89 Oki, then it got weird. XD

One would think that Alfred has a better taste in men.

It’s like the neverending story, Alien vs predator, the matrix, zoolander, even the fucking Blair witch, the first ones are great while it’s sequels are fucking trash

The man was in the SAS. He does not need to prove anything.

I wanna see Andy Serkis Alfred kick ass some Goon in the Batman 2
