Well, this is the guy that insisted that whales don't eat plankton because Finding Nemo taught him they eat krill only, don't expect research from him

It's been a while since I've watched it, but did Finding Nemo even actually say that whales eat krill and nothing else?
I don't remember
But that was Enter's interpretation
I looked up the quote. Dory says "Whales don't eat clownfish, they eat krill."
Notice how she doesn't say they only eat krill.
The lesson, folks: don't take lessons in marine biology from Pixar films, especially from a character who's supposed to be kind of ditzy.

Oh, but Enter learns everything from animation. He learned how to be a regular person through MLP, fo reelz guis!!1!
Well, that's just one more reason I don't give a fuck about Finding Nemo and never will - eh, Pixar's overrated, anyways... There need to be someone who can challenge them, because Dreamworks clearly can't, nor can anyone else, in terms of storytelling and character memorability. Off-topic, I know, but I feel as a Western animation fan, it's something to worry about after awhile!
Still, for me, anyway - this was better time wasted than harping on a POS Easy Target like Rocket Power, if I must be really honest with all of you.
I'd almost like to see Enter talk about Finding Nemo - too bad he won't do a good job ever convincing me to change my mind about it as of late...
I have to agree, I mean I have nothing against the company, but I feel they've really been overblown in regards to popularity.
Back on topic, that review did have a few good points (then again, I didn't really care for Rocket Power when it was on). But at the same time, there were plenty of flaws. That whole "Repeated footage" thing gets overplayed to the point where I just had to listen to the review audio-only. On top of that, his tangents get pretty bad and frequent. And the comparisons to Sanjay and Craig seemed to exist only because he hates the show.
I will give him this though, it's short.
It's amazing that he has the chutzpah to call a show "dated" when he himself put My Little Pony references into his own show, which will definitely date it.
Exactly, how exactly does Sanjay and Craig "oozes with 2010's"?
I'd say "edgy" remakes of fairy tales/child stories are going to be a mark of the late 2000's early 2010's, not fart jokes and dude-bros being dicks.
Fart jokes ONLY ever existed in the last few years, gang.
Yeah, weren't the latter two long standing traditions in fiction?
@Jewelsmakerguy: I recall that Ren and Stimpy's Christmas special involved Stimpy searching for his first fart.
Geoffrey Chaucer.
I recall a few of those in my childhood. I thought Disco and CB Radios were cool.
The pilot/first episode of the classic Fox series "Get A Life" had that premise covered.

I really don't get what's his problem with the "it's for kids" phrase.
"It's an excuse for what is crap."
How? Shows like Steven Universe and Adventure Time were also made for kids. Deos that mean that they are crap? No. Where did I said that?

The idea that kids could run the world is entirely silly and unrealistic, given how most of them lack the maturity or wisdom to make long-lasting decisions that would benefit a country in the long run nor can they be trusted not to turn petty incidents into international catastrophes, Growing Around.
Growing Around might work as a good dystopian story or some KND-like story but not the way Enter has it.
This one wasn't bad. Rocket Power had a very early-mid 90s feel with bright colors and what old people thought kids were saying during that time, so it was pretty dated (the show aired August 1999)
This and his Captain Planet one did this thing where he explained how kids felt, and he was right. I mean, the carnival at school cliche is pretty bad, or maybe I went to the only three schools in the world that never had surprise carnival day. I talked about that other guy where you need to view these with the mentality of the target audience, and that's what he did.
He's still a weird dude, but he's got some brains when it comes to reviewing kids shows.
