Overlord DVD is a Video Review Show starring Diktor van Doomcock, the self-proclaimed "future ruler of Earth", as he reviews and comments on current pop culture. Once an ordinary man who loved Star Trek, he went insane upon seeing Star Trek: Discovery, and vowed to Take Over the World.Doomcock makes videos in between plotting his schemes from Castle Xanadoom, his hidden base at the center of the Earth, where he discusses various happenings in various popular franchises like the various Disney properties, Star Wars, Star Trek, and the comics industry, mainly criticizing the decisions of the companies making them. Joining him in this endeavor is his trusty frenemy and sealed Eldritch Abomination Harvey Cthulhu; the Skull of Calderón, a Necromancer beheaded by Doomcock who is now just a living skull kept in a jar; and Omnivac, Doomcock's AI who helps his boss crunch numbers and fetch statistics while trying to seize control of the world himself. Inspired by Mystery Science Theater 3000, Doomcock and his crazy crew combat the greedy corporations in their quest to save pop culture. | |

Evil Sounds Deep | |
Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_16364a29 | comment |
Evil Sounds Deep: In keeping with his supervillain persona, Doomcock has a deep, booming voice courtesy of a pitch-adjustment filter. The creator has posted new videos without the filter at least once, allowing viewers to hear his real voice before he caught it and reuploaded the video with the proper "Doomcock" pitch. | |

Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: Doomcock may be a supervillain plotting to Take Over the World, but he frequently finds himself disgusted by the greed and shady practices by big entertainment corporations like Disney. | |

Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_32da548d | comment |
Arch-Enemy: Hollywood entertainment companies in general are his usual target of criticism, but Disney is his most frequent target who he holds responsible for ruining Star Wars, and their acquirement of so many companies and properties means that about half the content he criticizes is a Disney product. | |

Adorable Abomination: Harvey Cthulhu is a pint-sized version of the titular Great Old One from the Cthulhu Mythos with a cute high-pitched voice who spends most of his time joining Doomcock in criticizing modern entertainment. | |

Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Omnivac, a machine created by Doomcock, turned against him and spends his introductory episode trying to get him to hook it up to the internet so it can Take Over the World. Thankfully, Doomcock threw him off by programming him to believe that Santa Claus is real and will give him Wi-Fi. | |

The Skull of Calderón was once an Evil Sorcerer who was beheaded by Doomcock, his still-living skull now stuck in a bubble of entropy. | |

Sealed Evil in a Can | |
Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_485eb589 | comment |
Sealed Evil in a Can: Harvey Cthulhu is an Eldritch Abomination who Doomcock has sealed within a container. Harvey frequently tries to get Doomcock or the viewers to press the button that will release him and allow him to destroy the world. The Skull of Calderón was once an Evil Sorcerer who was beheaded by Doomcock, his still-living skull now stuck in a bubble of entropy. Omnivac is de facto sealed by the fact that Doomcock refuses to give Omnivac any kind of internet connection, lest he take over the world first! | |

Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu? | |
Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_4a879f41 | comment |
Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: Harvey Cthulhu is a small, cute version of the original Cthulhu himself who wants to destroy the world, but ever since being sealed away by Doomcock, he spends his time joining his jailer in mocking pop culture. | |

Vile Villain, Laughable Lackey | |
Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_6e60e40a | comment |
Vile Villain, Laughable Lackey: Harvey Cthulhu and the Skull of Calderón were probably meant to invoke this trope's feel; they're both imprisoned and can't do more than join Overlord DVD in snarking at corporations' greed and idiocy, but technically they're his defeated enemies, not his minions: only Omnivac can really be called his minion, and given his motivations, even he counts as a defeated and imprisoned enemy. That said, Doomcock only tends to fire up Omnivac when it's time to crunch numbers, and Omnivac thinks this is so far beneath him that most of Omnivac's dialog consists of hilarious tirades that eventually end with him acquiescing and discussing the numbers. | |

Simple Country Lawyer: When his commentary delves into legal issues, Doomcock will point out that he is not a lawyer, and that he is but "a simple country supervillain". | |

Overlord DVD (Web Video) / int_e88e8a8f | comment |
Writer on Board: One of OverlordDVD's most common criticisms is when the creators of a work prioritize a particular message or set of values over actually telling a good story, especially when an existing franchise historically known for good storytelling is altered to preach the message or values. Contrariwise, when a work surprises him with the quality of its storytelling and the lack of any agenda behind it, e.g. earlier seasons of The Mandalorian, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, or Werewolf by Night (2022), he makes it a point to praise it. | |
