A snarky young Brit, Mathew "Film Brain" Buck hosts "Bad Movie Beatdown", formerly on Channel Awesome. By his own admission, Buck is following the Nostalgia Critic's example, but there's nothing nostalgic about the crap he reviews. Before he became a video contributor, Buck wrote articles for the site and was a moderator on the forums.Compare and contrast with Buck's other series; Projector.See his YouTube page, his Dailymotion page, his tumblr and his Twitter.On April 3, 2018, Buck announced his departure from Channel Awesome after ten years with the company. His departure ultimately marked the end of this show, with the final episode — a review of Stormbreaker — being released on May 12, 2018, though Buck did not confirm the show's discontinuation until four years later. | |

Villain Ball: Film Brain's interpretation of the actions of the Colonel Diaz in Mega Piranha. And indeed it seems very odd that he'd follow them to the U.S. and shoot down a U.S. navy helicopter just so he can try to capture the heroes after they killed the piranhas. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Film Brain points out that Albert Einstein was attending university when The Time Machine takes place, rather than already being a patent clerk as the film asserts. He also points this out in Hudson Hawk. The movie explicitly said it's set in 1981, which only makes the multiple Nintendo references confusing.note (Though Donkey Kong was released in arcades in 1981, it was in the tail end of the year, and few people would've known who made the game.) Also in 10,000 BC, where he points out the use of boats, pulleys, scaffolding, and telescopes, all of which weren't invented until thousands of years later. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: As of the 2013 episodes, he seemed to get a lot higher-pitched and animated, sometimes sounding rather whiny. His voice returned to its usual pitch in 2014, but the more upbeat delivery has stayed. According to his Twitter, he changed his delivery on purpose to counter complaints that he was too monotone, but feels that he overshot it a little. | |

Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_401d4116 | comment |
Broken Aesop: Pointed out in his review of Stealth, where a big theme is the debate on whether machines should fight human conflicts. The protagonist thinks they should not, as he feels that would desensitize soldiers to combat, and we are expected to side with him... except earlier in the film, the same character had pulled off an absurdly difficult bombing mission in a populated area with no collateral damage, which played out like an achievement in a video game. Crosses over into a bit of Harsher in Hindsight as well, as unmanned military aircraft are now science fact and the same debate has crossed over into Real Life. | |

Comedic Sociopathy: In his own reviews he comes across as pretty stable, but in crossovers he moves into outright sadism, taking gleeful pleasure in subjecting his fellow reviewers to his terrible movies; he's kidnapped people at least twice for the sole purpose of forcing them to do reviews with him. It's implied he murdered the person who loaned him Equilibrium, but the character reappears alive in the Seraphim Falls review so who knows. | |

Unfortunate Implications | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_4bc5e1e8 | comment |
Unfortunate Implications:invoked In his crossover review of Sunday School Musical with Todd in the Shadows, they point out that the film seems to indicate "the blacker you are, the better you sing". Case in point, the rival choir is all black and the Crossroads choir is all white and sucked before Zack (who is black) was forced to join them. He rails quite hard on Michael Bay over Skids and Mudflap, claiming their portrayal to be tantamount to blackface. Also calls this on how the "slutty" character in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning died; apparently for the crime of liking BDSM, she is tied up in the same way she tied up her boyfriend earlier in the film and raped by the Hewitt family's Creepy Uncle, then has all her teeth pulled out one by one and finally gets her throat slashed with scissors. This is easily the most torturous death in a film replete with chainsaw-murder, and it's very easy to interpret as the filmmakers feeling she deserved it just for being a bit kinkier than the other characters. In Prometheus, it's revealed that the automated surgical unit is only calibrated for male patients. As Film Brain says in the review, WOMEN AREN'T AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SPECIES!!!! Film Brain criticized what he saw as a Distinction Without a Difference approach to stereotypes in The Love Guru; the main character is an American raised in India, and as such the film treats it as okay for him to act like a ridiculous Indian stereotype. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness: In the first season, Film Brain would sometimes include out-of-place scenes paralleling similar subplots or stupid moments in the movies, such as getting into a confusing chase with a homicide detective and losing his day job as a salesman. Now the show is just Strictly Formula reviewing. He was a lot jokier in his early episodes. While he still maintained a sense of humour, he took things a bit more seriously. | |

Invincible Hero: Film Brain considers On Deadly Ground's Forrest Taft this. In his review of Ultraviolet (2006) Film Brain calls both Violet and Preston from Equilibrium this. He also points out that Jackson Curtis of 2012 is this, actually comparing him to Jesus later on in the review. In John Cena's The Marine, he repeatedly lampshades Cena's ability to shrug off explosions at point blank range. During the cameo from Critical Marine, he asks at what point during the marine training he acquired superpowers, to Critical Marine's obvious disdain. A Good Day to Die Hard leads to him concluding that John McClane had superpowers to explain how he managed to survive so many long-distance falls into painful things. | |

Alternative Character Interpretation: In-Universe he makes several about the characters in the films he reviews and about the people behind the films. Film Brain thinks God from Evan Almighty is evil and Will Smith from Seven Pounds is a sociopath. He also thinks Mary from All About Steve is mentally insane. Steven Seagal's character in Out of Reach has Psychic Powers. Seltzer and Friedberg and Craig Moss; the creators of infamous spoof films like Date Movie, Epic Movie and Breaking Wind, are deranged maniacs who make gross-out spoof movies to satisfy their own scatological sexual desires. John McClane has suffered some kind of psychological warping from his time fighting terrorists, to the point where he's degenerated into a Blood Knight who mostly experiences pleasure when killing people. He may also have superpowers. | |

Jerkass Has a Point: In his Blade: Trinity review, Buck states that Wesley Snipes became a difficult man to work with later in his career. During the filming of Blade Trinity he was especially bad, as his hate for the movie meant he could only be bothered to show up on set when close-ups were filmed, made racist remarks to Ryan Reynolds, and reportedly made death threats towards the director. While Snipes' behavior was wrong and his contempt for the movie bleeding into his performance is among the issues Buck brings up, he also states that Snipes was right about the movie's quality, and it would have been bad even if Snipes brought his A-game. | |

Once Done, Never Forgotten: In a couple of skits, Film Brain wrote The Nostalgia Critic addressing him as "Equilibrium douchebag". Lampshaded in his 50th episode (The Riddle), where he expresses surprise at having made it past the Equilibrium episode. The whole point of Spoony's guest appearance in his video review of Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen is to berate him for giving it a 3.5/5 in his written review. | |

Queer People Are Funny: One of his main complaints with I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry was that despite claiming to be a movie that promotes tolerance, all the gay characters are flamboyant stereotypes. He found Duncan an especially notable example of this because he started out as a homophobe in denial of his own sexuality, but as soon as he came out, his personality changed entirely. | |

Also seen in The Ugly Truth, where an antagonist turns out to be a rape apologist because it's the only way the misogynist protagonist can look good. | |

"Not Making This Up" Disclaimer | |

"Not Making This Up" Disclaimer: He states that he's not making up that Urkel from Family Matters (Jaleel White) starred in an Asylum movie while he was in the middle of editing a review of another movie starring 80s pop star Tiffany. He also didn't make up the teacup and saucer explosives from The Specialist. In the crossover with Obscurus Lupa, he states that Arnold Schwarzenegger choking a bear sounds like a joke, but really happens. During the review of "Bear", he explains the ludicrous twist the bear is sentient and aware of the character's various misdeeds and arranged the entire scenario to punish them and bring it all into the open, in a dramatic fashion as if he was joking, the groans and tells the audience he wished he was making it up. | |

Designated Hero | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_8e11040f | comment |
Designated Hero:invoked Complains about this trope if he spots it in a movie. The robbers of the eponymous Money Train show no real heroic traits to Film Brain. Similarly, Slim from Steal is considered to be this. Ronnie from The Dilemma (a homophobe who ruins his girlfriend's parents' wedding anniversary and kills's a man's pet fish in a rage). Neil Shaw from The Art of War III (thanks to The Reveal at the end that the Mooks he'd been mowing down the whole movie were actually South Korean Intelligence and the seemingly-innocent woman he saved from arms smugglers was actually their boss; Matthew points out that this would be "one of the greatest spy fuckups in history" and yet the film treats Shaw as an indispensable member of the intelligence community). Lt. Ben "Big" Gannon in Stealth will do anything to get his girlfriend (Lt. Kara "Guns" Wade) back... including launching unprovoked military strikes on Russia and North Korea, who have nuclear weapons. Dr. Larry Lupin in Awake (2007), due to being set up as the Red Herring villain, only to turn out to be the only good surgeon on the team. Meaning he's still an alcoholic, lazy, slovenly excuse for a doctor... whom we're expected to root for. FDR and Tuck in This Means War, who abuse their CIA credentials to stalk the woman they both have a crush on, and torture a terrorist in a scene Played for Laughs. FDR is the bigger jerk of the two due to Tuck having a Morality Pet son, so naturally he's the one the Love Interest chooses at the end. Film Brain is extremely disturbed when Steven Seagal's character in Mercenary For Justice participates in a bank robbery, including killing several innocent guards trying to stop him, simply to get the crooked CIA agent who organized the heist to incriminate himself. | |

Coincidentally, they also filmed the review for Transmorphers the same week Spoony reviewed its sequel on a whim. | |

Two years later, and he finally has reviewed it. After reviewing Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen, he replaces his poster of Transformers (2007) and puts up a poster for the maligned film Gamer, which he then later reviews. During his crossover review of Big Momma's House: Like Father, Like Son with The Rap Critic, Buck makes a comment about saving the Alvin and the Chipmunks sequel for Todd in the Shadows. Three months later, he and Todd do just that. Pointed out that the dad's list of "do not do that" actions in Project X (2012) were essentially a laundry list of what was going to happen. | |

Take That! | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: 2 Fast 2 Furious feels less like street racing and more like a stupid episode of Miami Vice. Or your average episode of CSI: Miami. From Gone Fishin:' "You know, it's scenes like this, where Joe Pesci repeatedly punches and kicks a clearly fake prop alligator in a scene that even kids would likely find stupid, that make me wish they could revoke Oscars. Well, that, and the entirety of Cuba Gooding Jr.'s career." At the beginning of Jack and Jill, there's a slam against The Nostalgia Critic for taking The Master of Disguise when he knew Film Brain had been wanting to do it for months. In his Bad Movie Beatdown review of 2018 (the year he left Channel Awesome): | |

Precision F-Strike: From All About Steve, Sandra Bullock was doing a monologue about curse words and the right time to use them. FB's response is a simple "Shut the fuck up". Before that, and probably his most effective use of this trope, in his Seven Pounds review: "The movie is literally telling us that suicide is okay as long as you donate your organs. What the fuck kind of message is that?" And again during his review of Ultraviolet, when reacting to the chasm-sized plot holes created by the reveal of Daxus being a hemophage. And again in his 2012 review: "If Yellowstone erupted, we'd be fucked. Really, REALLY fucked." | |

Berserk Button | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: The movie Seven Pounds. His review is one thing, but the commentary for said review shows it even more. Mentioned specifically by trope name in the interview/Q&A with FreyaMau. Never accuse him of not doing his research, because he does. He does not like disproportionately long credits. As many of his reviews show, such as The Dilemma, he does not like homophobia. Sexualized violence against women, too, judging from the disgusted tone of voice he uses when describing such scenes. The ending of The Cavern in particular (which ends in the middle of a rape scene played purely for shock value) sends him into a rage, where he says the movie can go fuck itself, and says it may be the worst movie ever. This is a man who has watched Fat Slags, Bear, and The Asylum flicks. Relatedly, he does not like it when female villains receive messier death scenes than male ones. The Condemned seems to do it for him, as well, judging by the fact that he actually interrupts his summary of the movie to deliver a several-minutes-long rant about the film's hamfisted, hypocritical, and just plain unfortunate message. In Film Brain's introduction for his review of Prometheus, he says how the more he thought about the movie after his first Projector review, the angrier it made him. This anger comes out over how the scientists of Prometheus are acting unscientific. He absolutely despises racism and is genuinely furious each time a movie expresses it. | |

Slasher Smile: An incredibly psychotic looking expression in his Darkness Falls review when he says "I'm a ventriloquist too!". And if possible, an even creepier one in his crossover with Nash and Linkara for the Wonder woman pilot. He also does this in his Hudson Hawk review to point out how ridiculous all the mugging for the camera in the movie is. Employed to great use in The Nostalgia Critic's review of The Purge, where FB does his version of the hammy villain. | |

In Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, both he and Todd repeatedly refer to the character of Toby as "The guy from Chuck". | |

Self-Deprecation: In the scene he wrote, in which he discusses his lack of success with the Powers-That-Be, he has Doug refer to him as "the Equilibrium Douchebag". In a scene parodying the freeze-frame character descriptions in Mega Piranha, his description is "Mathew Buck: Whiny British Douchebag". In Just Go with It, he points out that a character's fake German accent is worse than Professor Celluloid's. In Awake (2007), he says that Hayden Christensen has an "infamously whiny voice that makes mine look subtle by comparison". The crossover review of Metal Man opens with Obscurus Lupa cheerily claiming she was voted the most annoying reviewer on the site. Film Brain checks and realizes that, worldwide, he is still the most annoying. | |

Dude, Not Funny! | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_cdd835ce | comment |
Dude, Not Funny!: Pointed out in-universe, often with the phrase "That's not funny!" His reaction to The Ugly Truth and All About Steve overall. Most of the comedies reviewed have at least one Dude Not Funny moment pointed out; Hudson Hawk having several. He made a joke about Michael Jackson being an alien in Men in Black II and was immediately called out on it by his sock puppet. Gratuitous and crude sex jokes, as seen in Fat Slags. He calls one on himself in the second part of his 2012 review, where he halts the review momentarily and explains that in his original review, what was to immediately follow was a joke that would have been in very bad taste in light of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. He instead explains why the scene the joke was about is pointless, exploitative, and pathetic (at the time of the film's release), and states that his purpose is not to mock any tragedy, only the film. When the review was uploaded to his YouTube channel in late 2017, the scene of him explaining about the joke's removal is cut, and the joke that was originally removed is played without edits. The scene in Deck The Halls where the protagonists, who are Sitcom Arch-Nemeses to each other, trick each other into catcalling their own daughters also got this reaction. This was also his reaction to the mean-spirited attacks on twihards in the credits of Breaking Wind In Project X (2012), he points out that just making a really lewd Wild Teen Party by itself does not a comedy make. Arguably his best use of this ever? Epic Movie. Twice. He doesn't even need to speak. Two incredibly lame jokes are simply followed by a reaction shot of him looking pissed-off while comedy "waa-waa-waaaaa-waaaaah" music plays. The scene in Hudson Hawk where The Brute nonchalantly asks if he can rape the heroine. | |

Additionally, he named The Art of War III: Retribution as the worst action film he had ever watched, and also found it to contain both the worst opening sequence and the worst gunfight he had ever seen (though at least found the latter to be hilariously bad). | |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep" | |
Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_d7b34c31 | comment |
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": During Seagal Month, he doesn't even bother learning the names of Steven Seagal's characters, reasoning that he plays basically the same role in every movie he's in, instead just referring to each of them as Seagal. Their actual names are, in the order Mathew reviewed the films, William Lansing from Out of Reach, John Seeger from Mercenary for Justice, Jack "The Shadow Man" Foster from Shadow Man, and Tao from Against the Dark. While in the earlier On Deadly Ground review he refers to Seagal by his character's name, Forrest Taft, it has an example of its own in The Dragon Magruder, played by John C. McGinley, whom Mathew only refers to as "Dr. Cox." Even before that, in the Seraphim Falls review, he refers to Pierce Brosnan's and Liam Neeson's characters as "Pierce" and "Liam". In the film, their names are Morsman Carver (Neeson) and Gideon (Brosnan). In the direct-to-video Wesley Snipes vehicle The Marksman, Snipes' character doesn't have a name, referred to only as "The Painter". FB refuses to call him that so he sticks to Snipes. In the The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning review, Film Brain and Welshy declare the names of the four deadmeat young people (Eric, Dean, Bailey, and Chrissie) aren't worth learning and refer to them as Deadmeat 1, Deadmeat 2, etc., through the entire review. | |

Bad Movie Beatdown (Web Video) / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: Adding up the years in Hudson Hawk put the movie ten years before it was supposed to take place. Also in Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen, he takes note that while five Decepticons went down to the ocean floor to revive Megatron, one had to be torn apart for pieces and yet over the radio, a soldier claims that six Decepticons are at the bottom floor. In his review for Texas Chainsaw 3D Film Brain nearly has a stroke when he points out that Heather was born in 1973 and the movie takes place in 2012, therefore she should be 39 years old and not the 20-something we see onscreen. | |

This turns into Red Oni, Blue Oni when he reviews on enthusiastic mode along with someone a little more ill-tempered, such as The Cinema Snob or JesuOtaku. | |

Narm: invoked In the remake of The Time Machine, the protagonist saves his original love interest from dying in the first timeline but then she gets killed anyway, proving that You Can't Fight Fate. Unfortunately, the way it happened makes Film Brain burst out laughing over how silly he thought it was. Film Brain laughs at the ridiculous CG fish in Mega Piranha twice. He finds Awake (2007) to be full of this, mostly because of the acting of Hayden Christensen and Jessica Alba, and the sheer failure of portraying medical procedures accurately. 2012 features a scene regarding an earthquake Mathew finds hilarious for displaying the characters' stupidity (as a family is somehow ignorant of the destruction all around the world before being killed). Another from 2012: he finds the scene in which animals are airlifted to the arks so stupid, he states that he would have walked out of it if he had seen the movie while it still was in the theaters. | |

The Oner: Criticized in a scene in One Night Stand where Wesley Snipes's character walks down a street and exposits to the camera. He states that doing this serves no real purpose as the scene only serves as blatant (clumsy) exposition, and it (along with addressing the audience) just seems awkward and out of place with the rest of the film. He even notes that the movie couldn't even pull of a oner as it's noticeably cut in the middle, presumably because Wesley Snipes couldn’t get through the whole thing in one take. | |

Crossover: During the second anniversary, he reviewed McBain with The Cinema Snob, and The Spirit with Linkara. Notably during 2011, he appeared in no less than seven crossovers. Even he was surprised. Lockjaw with Phelous, Sunday School Musical with Todd in the Shadows and Hercules in New York with Allison Pregler during the third anniversary. The following year, he and Todd reviewed Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel. A two-part review of The Matrix Revolutions with MikeJ. A review of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning with Welshy. A review for The Incredible Hulk Returns with Nash, in the same style as the latter's crossover with Linkara. Speaking of that review, Linkara, Nash and Film Brain would team up in 2012 to watch the Wonder Woman (2011) Pilot. Spoony and Film Brain reviewed the Tekken live-action movie together. A review of Bloody Mallory with Sad Panda, Phelous, Welshy, Obscurus Lupa, ChaosD1, Andrew Dickman, and Critical Marine. He opens his 2012 season reviewing Sucker Punch with JesuOtaku. Then he does another one, this time with The Rap Critic for Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son. And now another with OanCitizen ("Brows Beat Down") for The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Helped MikeJ in his Shameful Sequels episode of The Matrix Revolutions, and in turn both made "Shameful Sequels Beatdown" for Nutty Professor II: The Klumps. Reviewed Killers with Sursum Ursa. Reviewed Forest Warrior with The Nostalgia Critic. Reviewed Stormbreaker with Dominic "The Dom" Smith. | |

(or "[Actor name] is a ventriloquist!") - complete with deliberately out of sync lip movements (or none at all). "Because when you need to add substance to your shitty movie, just add Nazis" "BLEURGH! BLEURGH!" "InnuENDO!" Seagal Month gave us "Seagal Body Double Count" and "Seagal Voice Double Count" "Get it? It's funny because he's fat" (particularly for Kevin James) Whenever he runs across a movie that uses text to introduce characters, he does the same with a bit of Self-Deprecation. He's compared Peter Weyland from Prometheus to Mr. Burns several times. Any time we are introduced to a character who is obviously going to die within the next five minutes, Film Brain refers to them as "Dead Meat." He always refers to Jordanna Brewster as "Jordanna what's-her-face". | |

Brick Joke: In his review of The Hangover Part II, he consults a thesaurus to look up the word "again" in an attempt to make his commentary less redundant and is pleased when he finds the word "recurrently." He then uses the word later in the review. | |

Shown Their Work: Film Brain clearly puts tons of research into the movies he reviews for his Bad Movie Beatdowns. In fact, when he was the guest for Transmission Awesome, he was asked a few questions about film trivia by the hosts and answered all of them correctly, save for a rather obscure question about Transformers (2007). | |
