Richie Rich - Nostalgia Critic 

+EVO6reviews Well...yeah. What kinda idiot puts all his money in a single vault? One burglary and you're broke.

+Nintendotron64 Hell, even Scrooge McDuck doesn't keep his entire fortune in his Money Bin, just the money he earned by himself.

+EVO6reviews what are you talking about? the moment I put my money into the bank, it disappears!

+EVO6reviews Where's my money Denny?

+EVO6reviews The most logical moment in this movie. I honestly like that part.

August West Had all the game systems, had a trampoline, and a pool

eh it depends some kids would resent you for being rich

@@SufferingSuccotash also a rich kid could just suck major ass as a personality

@@sgtjohnson All kids are shallow, only in movies they can be "Oh so very proud while being poor to hang out with the rich kid". In reality they'd be glad to hang out with Richie, even if despising him secretly.

They're part of the "I'm gonna talk shit about something cool because I don't have it" crowd

Not to mention the most expensive bees in the agricultural field.

@@aaronstevenson4136 Yeah but if it can pollinate like he says it can it's worth the price.

And it would be an excellent substitute since bees are sadly going extinct

Not really, it was remote controlled lmfao

@@kamengamer5372 soooooo...never

Funnily enough, bees are not indigenous to the Americas. It's amazing how well they integrated with the native environment to the point where their removal causes more harm than good.

Sibericus That's because they didn't compete with anything and the side effect from them (pollination) was beneficial to everyone.

+Sibericus They are. Honeybees were brought by Europeans, but they're not the only kind of bee.

+Mandemon1990 Doesn't make it any less interesting. +Marosario I was talking about their impact on the ecosystem.

Sibericus (About your response to Mandemon1990 ) It makes it more interesting

+Artemis Sharp Send them out to take down the africanized bees lol

Swagbito Uchiha Oh no I meant because our actual bees are dying.

Artemis Sharp True. But I just like the idea of using mechabees to take down actual bees. But yeah. These would _bee_ nice to have.

Swagbito Uchiha did u just

Artemis Sharp *Has a big shit-eating grin*

Oh come on. Most kids wanted to have a McDonald's in front of their door, where they could eat every day. That is, until they grow up and realize that McDonald's food is shit.

WJZAV But logistically how would it work? Do they have an entire staff just sitting there the entire time waiting for when the kid feels like eating?

They probably get better pay than actual McDonald's employees and rarely have to work. And the kid is so rich, he can afford it. Does not sound like a bad job. :-D

Doesn't Donald Trump eat McDonald's daily? lol

freddy gutierrez, plese not here

yeah, totally unrealistic, especially since he tried to kill RICH people.

Well, he is rich.

ThingsStuffington Yeah, that's true, I guess the richness cancels out the punishment and just becomes community service

Mel Gibson got basically that for attempted murder if his ex-fiancé. Hell they threw out the 4 felonies(mandatory 30years total), and slapped him with a misdemeanour. So, if you ever try to kill someone, tell them you want the Gibson special, and I’m sore you’ll get the same treatment took

Sounds about right, there was an heir to the Du Pont family who was caught, and admitted to, raping a 3 year old and received probation due to being rich. literally, that was why he never received any jail time, because "his family status and wealth would make him a target in prison, which would constitute cruel and unusual punishment".

So funny

I would rage whenever i see this because i couldn't even get called cute by my mom

I’m Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC. Why don’t you take a seat?

Still better than the orange man having that AND TIME man of the year

Interestingly enough, Hanna Barbera actually produced a Richie Rich cartoon in the 1980s. They even paired it with Scooby Doo and Scrappy-Doo.

If this were made in the 50's, it would have starred Donald Trump.

As a 12 year old?

@@sgtjohnson Since canonically speaking the Richie Rich in the comic strip was ten years old, yes.

@@errorloadingmusic821🤢

The kid has ROBOBEES and you're complaining about the unrealistic bullet-proof vest? Maybe it has some advanced ballistic impact gel like that the US troops have in their helmets, but 10 times better, my God, ROBO BEES, dude.

Well, it's not a true bullet-proof vest; the explanation the movie gives is that the spray (which Richie uses on his outfit while going up to face Laraquette) makes anything it's sprayed on impervious. Yeah, it's not realistic, but really, you look at all of the inventions, and MOST of them are impossible, so...

I have to agree with those two, the movie never has given any compromise to be realistic

What the previous guy said, A bulletproof vest is essentially just a vest with a metal plate underneath it. The spray Richie uses conversely turns every last bit of fabric he's wearing virtually indestructible.

@@thefanwithoutaface8105 It's hell on the dry-cleaning bill!

The pizza is aggressive!

Ohiska Just another day in the life of Jimmy Nutron.

Yeah but even though we then realise it's a bad film, we still enjoy it cos it was memorable :D

Yeah, it's almost like he's trying to... criticize your nostalgia.

Yeah, but I respect his opinions, and he's funny. Most of the time.

He isn't always right. He called James and the Giant Peach ridiculous, which meant nothing because it's James and the Giant Peach; it's supposed to be ridiculous. Although he did bring up a few good points like when Ms Spider said the others treated her like an outcast, even though what we saw was the exact opposite. People also harped on his review of the first Matrix movie. Personally, I thought the movie was okay. I also don't agree with his review of The Temple of Doom. He didn't like the movie because he thought it was "too dark" but I thought it raised the stakes and added a layer that the original, while also good, didn't have.The point is that critics are just like everybody else. They have their viewpoints, opinions, loves, and hates. Although, in this case, I have to agree. Richie Rich isn't a good movie.

What do you know about other people childhood? I barely remember that movie at all, and I would be sad if this movie was the only thing worth remembering from my younger days...

The sound of defeat in his voice is priceless

It really is a stunning amount of content for one comic character. I read quite a few of them myself way back when.

And yet literally no one under 40 knows or cares about him. Literally no one. At least kids have heard of Dennis the Menace and Desperate Dan.

I happened to be the target demographic when the movie came out and I thought it was an original idea. Turns out that the only reason my mother took me to the movie is because she read the comic books and was curious about her own nostalgia. I will say though, I did enjoy the movie at the time, and if I watched it again, I probably still would. Also, my mother enjoyed it as well. To her, it did hold up to her memories.

@@ChaleeRenee really cause this movie feels so 90s

@@ChaleeRenee odd cause this movie screams 90s with the slang the characters the look.

My ruger can hold up to ten rounds so it isnt that out of place

Perhaps it was a 9 shot revolver?

As John said, yeah he takes every shot like hes the Terminator, I don't care how expensive those fencing lessons are, they will not turn you into Rambo at freaking 14!

How did he not think to shot him in the head?

sinfulgokussj He went to the school that taught Storm Trooper's to shoot

Suika being the sensible one? Truly 'tis the end times.

Not really, it was remote controlled lmfao

He even had someone making gadgets for him and a kind, caring butler.

feathero3 Yeah, maybe they could've even had Jonathan Hyde, who played Cadbury, play Alfred in the DC Cinematic Universe and just have Jeremy Irons, who played Alfred in the DCCU, be Lex Luthor in "BvS: DOJ" instead of Jesse Eisenberg. Edit: No offense to Jesse Eisenberg, but he was completely miscast as Luthor.

If that happened... God help the world... hed be the worst batman to date... but then again theres Clooney and worst of all ... Ben Affleck...

@@zSpirall MARTHAAAAA. Seriously, what were WB thinking?

😂

Well duh, the butler is the best part in everything.

He’s also the dad/Van Pelt from Jumanji.

Like, Critic made fun of British Butlers but like Lemme show you Alfred Pennyworth, sometime :D

Yep. Definitely the coolest character in this underwhelming if inoffensive movie.

​@@Kitsurubariyeah Jonathan Hyde is great. He actually wasn't the first choice to play Cadbury. John Cleese offered the part but turned it down. Tim Allen was considered to play Richies dad but declined.

Mac had more Resentment towards Kit, and not their Mother Patricia.

Fun Fact: I don't give a fuck.

killerphoenix115 I was just saying it because they didn't shoot it at a studio, which they could've easily done.

Well I was just saying I don't give a fuck.

+Griffin Dumeer Thank you for that fun fact. :)

Orchid The Kaiju Pony you're welcome. :)

Yea he was a charismatic actor very talented

@@oooh19 I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it. :)

The sad thing is that Macaulay actually didn't want to do "The Good Son" but rather his dad, who acted as his manager at the time, demanded he take the role or he would pull him from Home Alone 2. In fact, Macaulay would actually retired between '94 (when RR came out) and '97 when he sued his parents for emancipation. Poor kid went through hell

@@brideofcthulhu347 That's so sad but I can't say I'm surprised. A lot of child stars go through hellish stuff like that, especially back in Culkin's day, which if you ask me when that happens it's nothing but exploitative on the part of the parents that do this. I'm not sure if it happens as much anymore, but back then it was more common. I don't say this to trivialize Culkin's suffering, but to point out how sad it is that this kind of thing used to fly a lot more easily at that time when this should never happen to child stars.

Especially him somehow kicking that prisoner's butt offscreen and slamming his head into a toilet.

+Cheerio Puff (CAPTAIN BEAR) thank you

CAPTAIN BEAR Imma bee Imma bee bee bee bee

Robo-bee the movie coming soon to a theater near you

No not the bees

And also, we need that robo-bee nowadays.

He needs to team up with Mara Wilson

Culkin has been a guest host on RedLetterMedia which is basically a much better take on critiquing older movies.

To be fair, that movie was an ironic success story

I know. I already I just heard from the first time

On another note does anyone know when something else happened on his show?

Michael McShane is funny as professor Keanbean. He also has a cameo as doctor Swanson in Office Space.

+Alex-Zander Browne Should prob make it unable to sting so we can get only the good things about bees and none of the bad XD

You know, Golden Dunsparce- Bees actually try try not to sting because they know they'll die if they do. Now wasps, THOSE are the guys you should be worrying about. They still should do that though, I see where you're coming from...

when a bee stings, the stinger is pulled out, along with a trail of guts connected to it, killing the bee.

Actually, ONLY honey bees die from stinging you. Wasps, bumble bees, etc. don't die because they have smooth stingers, and lancelets can retract their barbs in their stingers. A honey bee has an arrow-shaped stinger (like a dunsparce lmao). When a honey bee stings you, only its stinger and venom sacs get yanked out. It dies from the rupture in its abdomen, but not from its guts getting yanked out! o_o;

+TheGoldenDunsparce bumble bees don't die from stinging you hu didn't know that?

Yeah, I know, I noticed that too!

Lmao

I was actually going to comment that I want to see a review of the christmas movie

***** the point is that the comment section is mostly made up of the same things....that's how you personally feel? Coincidentally so does 80% of the comment section! What's so wrong with that?

***** ooohh sorry. It's much more difficult oo tell emotions online

I legit take 2008 all over again over the recession we are in right now.

Yeah he's a great actor. He's great in other stuff like Jumanji,Anaconda,and the Mummy as the egyptologist who reads the Egyptian message on the chest.

Nothing wrong with that as long as you know what's wrong

true, very true.

Pagemaster is pure imagination fuel.

and that animation~ like an actual book came to life.

At least your still acknowledging its flaws, so your not blind to theme.

This joke aged great 😂

This movie was Mack's Sendoff. He was basically riding off into the sunset.

@@Tornado1994until Party Monster and Saved!

@@randalgraves6979 That's Right! We didn't see him again publicly for almost 10 years!

sounds like he is saying "inventons"

@@SicMuzik I think it's liverwurst.

If not raw meat, definitely some sort of cookie dough.

Atlas56 Now that I think about, the fashion guy contract looks like an adult richie rich

You would be great at Cinemasins.

Smeeshie2001 holy shit that all I see now

It's actually the legend 27

Atlas No, he’s here to assassinate Macaulay

World saving robots if not for them being killers

Really?? He looked exactly like his Cadbury character in Jumanji with the black suit and everything. He plays two characters. One being Allen's father and Van Pelt.

@@bryanrizzo9377 yep that's why I asked how

Yeah that's Jonathan Hyde. He's great in this movie and other stuff like Jumanji,Anaconda,and the Mummy.

Sounds like Batman to me

Sounds like Artemis Fowl if it sucked.

Artemis Fowl doesn't suck, though. It's awesome. Richie Rich on the other hand....

Nobody Watching he said if it sucked

I know. I was just expounding on my love for AF and my dislike of Richie Rich. I suppose it's difficult to convey tone over a text.

I will have you know your wrong

Mr Internet says WROOONG!!!

Well, this comment caught my attention, gee, I wonder why.....

Same

Its a joke!

Yeah - you’re still not known for your athletic abilities dude. Only your bad teeth

Same

Why... Why would they do this?!

+Daniel Audéoud it was a cartoon in the 60s or 70s and this movie is based off that

Huh?

+thomasmageeporter/GamingGutter yeah I used to watch that show. It was a cool show.

Infinatis cause it is awesome and they love ( money) their lovely viewers

Lol Casper is the ghost of Devon Sawa...atleast in the 1995 film with Christini Ricci and Bill Pullman.

Uhhhhhh

I crave for alot of things in this movie like having my own McDonald's. The fact that professor Keanbean is so overweight and gets all that McDonald's is sickening. Even if he just had one cheeseburger...not a good a idea.

prettyinpink903 Translation: LOOK AT ME!!! IM SPECIAL!!!

She's in the new one.

You're thinking of the reboot. This is the...original.

International marketing can be weird

Eeeeeeyep

hes mike mcshane yeah

The question is how well the movie and that show follow the source material

the good son and richie rich too imo

When the Box Office Returns came in for Richie Rich, Culkin was 14 years old. He had been riding off of Home Alone for exactly 4 years, he knew he wasn't the Cute little Kevin Macallister anymore, he was now a Rich Teenage New Yorker who had earned his keep as a Child Actor, Macaulay knew he was hitting puberty, that his testicles were dropping and that he had reached Adolescence, Mac wasn't Just Smart, He was INCREDIBLY wise when in December 1994 he flat out told his Mom Patricia and Dad Kit that he did not want to do these films anymore and that he wanted to grow up and be a Normal High Schooler. He Had DOZENS offers and turned them ALL down. Culkin had LARGE Advancement Checks, he Knew his Family were Financially secured. Macualay Carson Culkin (Born Tuesday August 26,1980 in Manhattan,NY) is probably the LUCKIEST Child Star in the World, instead of being hit with the Child Star curse, he turned out a-Ok. Now married to Anne Boonchuy, has Two little sons of his own and is a Regular at RedLetterMedia, This little Virgo is STILL the Ham and Charming Manhattan Kid who played a Chicago Child Prodigy who Defended his Family's Mansion from Two Bumbling Burglars After they accidentally left him home for Christmas. He just got older.

@@Tornado1994 He will ride off Home Alone for the rest of his life because the movie became a holiday institution. Home Alone is now on the same plane as It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th St, the Grinch, and any other holiday movie you can think of.

@@podyjr101 there actually was a wealthy politician (i want to say a senator) who claimed that he wasnt a silverspoon trust fund baby, he started his own company with a "small loan of a million dollars" which was the equivelence of $20-30 million today. This was done before Trump, i want to say it was a minor contreversy in the 90s and the man was mocked for it since he basically turned a $20mil interest free loan, a million dollar education, and all his father contacts into a $100mil business over the coarse of 30-40 years.
