That's possible, I mean for all we know, he might even like some of the shittier movies he's reviewed as of late.
I'd say it's less that his tastes have reverted to shit, and more that he's always been into blockbuster capeshit and children's movies (ones with dark/adult themes, anyway). And both types of media are experiencing a sort of golden era - every superhero movie is designed to jumpstart years of sequels, and if a kids' flick isn't jampacked with outdated memes then it'll only get greenlit if it's "deep" - so it makes sense in a way that that's all it'd seem like Doug likes now.
Although I grant you that Doug's case would be different in that he's never been self-consciously a fan of "bad movies", it's sorta par for the course for internet reviewers to start liking shitty movies, really. Or at least to begin to feel more excitement for them at the expense of better movies. Because there's the recognition of "this movie looks like shit, and it also fits within the niche of things I review, so I can profit off of it".
I may watch it when it finally gets on netflix. Also on a sidenote I think Rob and Doug deserves a thread the most. Linkara is just generic and his show isn't that bad actually, Spoony disappeared but i remembered liking his older episodes, Film Brain I have not watched (same for Todd), and fuck if I know anything on Oancitizen. All of which I did not watch any of these days save for Linkara's stuff, and his dirt is completely generic porn stuff (you know the term"A man has his needs") and getting ditching a girlfriend after transitioning.
It's my favourite film
He's really reaching now.
For a character that's so achingly earnest, it was strange to see him take apart one of the most achingly earnest films by an achingly earnest filmmaker.It's my favourite film
Doug made several utterly moronic points in his review. Most of his criticisms were just that he didn't like the style of the film. The part where Nostalgia Chick says Christian slut-shamed Satine is also utter nonsense because all that was done as part of the play in the film and wasn't literally connected to the events outside the play. You might think that's just Lindsay being Lindsay, but apparently Doug wrote the script for the review and she had no input so I hold him responsible for that.
Well Doug, your opening/end credits suck, if that's any consolation.
Truly! It's ear rape. The guitar is just painful to listen to. Dreadful version of a dreadful song.
Lindsay actually enjoys Moulin Rouge and considers it a well-made, stylized movie, and seems to regret taking part in the review because of how negative and unlike her own opinion it was.It's my favourite film

Don't question it. Move along. It's the least of your worries on the internet. There are many worse things out there ready for the frier. MANY.
In speaking of which of which, did Lindsay consider leaving channel awesome recently?
In speaking of which, anything about Lindy leaving or even considering to ditch channel awesome or am I behind the curve here. Or anything about the other guy in the review. I.E. the guy who, for a lake of a better term, plays Javert in the Les Misérables review.
