"She's an ancient creature called a narf-" "Oh honey you can't do this"
kattastic9999 best quote of the video.
"bitch you for real?" nostalgia critic 2016
"They're Pinky and the Brain..."
So all this time Pinky was the holder of ancient arcane knowledge ? Explains the insanity
2:42
_"Oh honey, you can't do this."_
_I fucking _*_LOST_*_ it._ 😂😂😂
Same
Frozen
Ant-Man
The Lego Movie
Nice reference there.
It took me a bit to get The Lego Movie.
What was the Ant-Man reference?
Near at the start of the video, they mention a movie about a man who shrinks to the size of an ant.
ReasyRandom I was trying to figure out the third reference for so long...
The followup: "You got me there with the LEGO Movie, but everyone loves LEGOs. No brainer that it would be a hit. Care to raise the wager with something more?"
"Fine. Double or nothing. I'll make a sequel based on the LEGO Batman character. Not only will it be good enough to get nominated for tons of awards, but also it will be arguably the best Batman movie since the Dark Knight."
Everytime I watch this I die when Rob is like: "Oh, honey you can't do this."
For the alliance
I KNOW! RIGHT?
TOO FUNNY!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

Ss anos após ano e passo passo mal de rir sempre
When I was a kid and saw the scene where Paul is running while holding the Narf, I didn't see the wolf and literally just assumed he was being empathetic and like, "Oh, you're screaming! OK! AAAAHHH!!! I'M SUPPORTIVE!!!!"
Lmao XD
That'd be a great scene for, like, a ghost movie parody.
Just imagine it: A guy is talking to a girl or something that can see ghosts. All of a sudden, the girl looks at a seemingly empty corner of the room and gasps. The guy looks at the corner and gasps too. The girl asks, "Do you see it too?", to which the guy replies, "No, I was just humoring you".
I'm pretty sure that was actually what was happening.
Hahaha! XD
me too! lol
The drunk mother bit in the end was hilarious xD
I thought it was very funny.
+Ruko Michiharu I've watched that part about 5 times already :D Made my day
+Ruko Michiharu and made more sense how the plot came about
The more I think about that scene the more I laugh
+Ruko Michiharu same here, to all the above replies.
I would love it if directors in real life really sat around and bet each other to do seemingly impossible movies.
That needs to be a sketch series or something haha. Some other people involved could be the Russos and James Gunn.
“Hey James, I dare you to make a movie about an obscure Marvel property that not only becomes a hit, but makes audiences feel emotion towards a talking tree and a talking racoon with a bad temper.”
“Pftt, you’re on. Oh and just for extra fun, I’ll cast that fat guy from Parks and recreation and make him attractive.”
Tony3Productions .... GENIUS!! I will do anything to help make this happen!
Assuming the resulting movies work. I’m afraid we’d get a bunch of less offensive Emoji Movies.
Maybe not a movie but I do know about at least one case where this was true for a TV show. An indie animator named Danny Antonucci, best known for creating gruesome and bizarre adult animated shorts and MTV filler material, was dared by one of his friends to make a kids cartoon and actually get it on the air. And that's where Ed Edd n Eddy came from.
I do not know about movies but I vaguely remember interview with King where he alluded to writers doing exactly that.
"Well it's better then the time she said the trees did it."
Priceless. Drunk deadbeat mom Tamara might be my favourite NC character yet.
tamara is fucking awesome, lol. I didnt liek her at first, but now i dont see hwo they could do the series withouth her.
I didn't like Drunk mom in the Cats & Dogs review. She felt thrown in and was mean for no reason. But I agree, that cameo was hilarious.
nah my favourite is bill
Hudson Williams lemme guess Malcom is Uncle lies
Nope, Critic wearing a sweater.
12:20 “Take a good look Shyamalan. That’s the closest to story you’ll ever get” that’s pure genius 🤣
Lady in the Water is a work of art and a masterpiece. I enjoyed it from start to finish without dozing off after coming back from work long hours. I typically get tired and go to bed after work, but this beautiful film kept me awake. Until the very end of the movie when Cleveland and Story say goodbye, I shed a tear. You, Nostalgia Critic, as well as many ignorant fools in this world, are lost and not aware of an amazing movie when you see one. But that's alright to be an fool. As the movie says, every person has a purpose. There is meaning for fools in this world.
@@DanielMazahreh I think you meant to post this on the main comments
I read this at that exact moment and you beat me to the comment by 4 years
7:24 When you realize how well-written Gravity Falls was and how much sense the climax made, even though the antagonist of the show was literally trying to bring about something called “Weirdmageddon”!
Why does everybody keeps on hiring me? All of my work is shit ♫♫♫♫
Calila PloyPloy best intro ever!
Love itttttttttttttt
Best intro they’ve done
And I have a weird uncle named Creepy Story...
...I don't talk about him much.
Origins of Split? (Not that Split was a completely bad movie)
And an even creepier uncle named Scary Story, plus a dead aunt named Bedtime Story
I have a younger cousin named bad story
He swallowed a reporter named Inside Story
I also have a clown brother called Funny Story.
I guess you could say this movie was... dead in the water.
YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
awesome Lol
+DeenStayNightAbridged AAAAAWWWWWW SNAP!!!
+Mr Penguin dang better get some water on that burn
Badum tssssss....
Does she have a bro named "Cool Story"?
THANK YOU. I was waiting for him to make that joke and was disappointed.
Your pic is weirdly adorable.
This is 2016. You're now allowed to bring that meme back.
bruh
And does cool cat have a dad named "daddy Derek"
That Rice Crispies joke killed me! It's kind of lonely up here but at least we get internet connection
AAAAAAGH - SNAP!
Up where

Actually, I believe the "narf" come from the Pinky and the Brain lore.
NARF!!!
+Zach The Passionate Aspie Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand he makes that reference in the second part. Who knew?!?

I love that reference to Mermando from Gravity Falls.
so many gravity falls references
+KTChamberlain
13:22
I spy a Waddles plushy!
+KTChamberlain He probably would have made this film better...:D
Agreed. It took him long enough to get a GF reference in considering Doug's vlogs and the present-day cartoon editorial he did.
+Dawn Wayfinder A Waddles Plushy! Shit man! I need to get myself on of those!
NC should do a Top 11 Dumbest Movie Character Names
Cypher Rage
Jupiter Jones
Pluto Nash
Agent Prime story
Speaking of which you want to make Cypher rage sound badass. Add bill to the beginning.
Maybe I'm super lame or an idiot, but Cypher Rage sounds kinda cool in a sci-fi setting, but for like a cyborg criminal, a bounty hunter, a master hacker/computer expert, or maybe like as a codename
@@fleetadmiralauto6506 it's a cool nickname, but fucking ridiculous as an actual name.
Tomas A. Anderson (Neo from the Matrix)
"Better than the time the trees did it"! Couldn't stop laughing!
I didn't get it
Entertainment Corp. It’s a reference to another terrible Shyamalan movie, The Happening, where trees cause people to commit suicide.
It's narf or nothing!
Princess Unattainable beckons you
These 2 comments are awesome!
This is the hilarious side of the Internet
I like how you two have gravity falls character as your pitchers but nether of you pointed out waddles
+Rachel Kozlowski I have Princess Unattainabelle locked in my tower~
3:56 - "they inspired us, man listened, and it became real."
4:01 - "but man does not listen very well..."
Wow...I mean, I know that NC pointed this out, but I have to say...just wow. It takes a special little genius to literally tear a hole in your own story within the first few seconds of the movie...
I hate to say it, but in a way, it's actually plaussible. You can listen to others, but when you're beginning to be distracted with other thoughts, you forget some thing you hear.
I've had enarf of this movie!

"Oh honey, you can't do this"😂😂😂
OH MY GOD! A POOL! THAT IS SLIGHTLY SCARIER THAN THE TREES IN THE HAPPENING!
+RGS No... I think she wanted to hide in the pool. But shyamalan just didn't express it right.
+AT Productions There was woman screaming bloody murder after she saw a puddle of mustard on a screen...this wasn't in a movie or scripted show...
NOOOO! NOT THE TRESS!
+Fat6amer THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!
I hate chlorine pools as much as the next guy, but you dont see me running and screaming bloody murder
Love the about Frozen movie and Antman. How back in the day no one thought those movies could work.
no. Hollywood just needed to rape the industry a little bit before the population would respect movies like those.
+Al Hoyt what was the movie the other two made?
+rikacheer I think that was The Lego Movie
ok thanks
+DrChadd990 Good point.
You forgot about her uncle, the actually successful Toy Story
And her little brother Yoshi’s Story, and her cousin from Japan the Lost Story, and her obscure nephew twice removed Cave Story.
And her grandma Christmas Story, her geek niece A Star Wars Story, her great grandma NeverEnding Story, her Peurto Rican nephew West Side Story, and her grandpa A Ghost Story.
Lego Movie , Frozen , And Ant Man
Ronin Cruickshank yup
all three being amazing movies
thanks
your allowed to think that, but for me I thought it was great, for many people the movie touched people on a personal level including myself, and I believe thats why it got everywhere so quickly because those first people who saw it loved it so much.
Frozen was good. Very good, in fact. But it was overhyped and not nearly as good as people made it out to be.
I just now noticed that Malcom was holding a plushie of Waddles from Gravity Falls at the end.
Stuffed toys.
For a second there, I thought you typed Waddle Dee plushie...I'd take both to be honest
Malcolm and the plushie are SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!
+Donnel Waddle Dee same XD
Her family lives in the swamp alongside their uncle, Folk Story
They have one neighbour called Side Story.
They have another neighbour named Shrek
I completely lost it at "We have to save the nye-nye-nyes!!!"
11:25 I just dyed laughing now I'm a ghost typing this down
Rainwingstar LLeopard what color?
Ahhahah snap !!
The only way this movie could have been improved was if Story was replaced with either:
Ariel
Mermando
Lapis Lazuli
This film would've been way better with Android 18 in it xD
I don't think that's the Lazuli they were talking about...
... did you read "Lapis Lazuli" and really immediately think of DBZ, before anything else...? x'D
What about Kevin Costner from Water World?
Replace Story with Vulgaris Magistralis. If you can catch him, that is.
Did Rob just pop a chip in his mouth then spit it out?
Yep.
that makes no sense
You repeated yourself!😆
+namsivad did not mean to do that
It's a common CZcams glitch.
"Oh Honey, you can't do this." 😂😂😂😂
Narfs, Scrunts, and Tartutics...oh my.
Gold Eyes atleast they are not duk duk rabari peesh don pi tuti digga digga dum dum nopalli bin bin al patuting kora tu kopi tuma Bella bush bush....
Gold Eyes it's like if Dr. Seuss got high with Roald Dahl
Gold Eyes in this context, that makes it sound like a Dr. Seuss line
Which sounds like a great idea for a comedy sketch, somebody make that happen.
@@paxonite-7bd5 I read this as the witchdoctor song lol
THE DISNEY MOVIE IDEA STUDIO TRYOUTS
Well, Shyamalan, let's hear your idea.
"Okay, the main character is an ancient creature."
Okay, a little weird, but go on.
"She's a Narf named Story."
NEXT!
"But..."
NEXT!
"You haven't even heard the best part yet...."
I SAID NEXT!
Actually Disney was going to fund it anyway, but Shyamalan stormed out because they didn't understand it.
I can't stop watching this review, it's up there with The Lorax and Top 11 Drug PSAs for my favorite episode
Mario Ramirez for me it will always be Jurassic Park ("I'm the motha-fuckin T-REX!!!!) & Milk Money (so frickin funny!).
12:02 Well, Bryce Dallas Howard was the one who said that her character needed the heels for Jurassic World and she didn't think it would be controversal.
Someone suggested this as a good movie so I came back to enjoy the review.
One of the best exchanges you guys ever made (Thank you!):
"The main character is named Story"
"Out!"
"Not happening."
"She's an ancient creature called a narf-"
"Oh honey you can't do this"
anyone can thelp but think this movie was ghostwrittten by Luna from harry potter? oh yeah theya re Nargles and NArfs and BOINK and ZORK
Zork?! What is Zork?!
i think something pinkie says XD
Zork? Isn't that a text-based adventure game?
Fat6amer i had to google that, Thank you...
Definitely written by Pinkie. Zort!
by "eastern bedtime story" he means that it's a "bedtime story he told his kids"
Shyamalan is trying to outdo Shark boy and lava girl.
Narf sounds like it from Spaceballs!
*Chestburster comes out of John Hurt*
"Narf, please!"
It sounds like that it could be the name of one of the assholes
Isnt that what pinky says from pinky and the brain.
Yes, the reference is literally made in the review.
dterribletwins I commented before he said it.
When I saw the title "Lady in the Water", I thought it would be a murder mystery surrounding the story of a woman who was killed in a lake and a detective has to discover the truth on who killed her. But after seeing this review, I was very disappointed.
That sounds like a good movie or an average criminal minds episode.
@@ivanlagrana878 It does but I could've sworn it was a thing. Maybe not a movie but from a book I read long ago with the same title? It's on the tip of my tongue but I can't remember.
I thought it was some kind of mermaid or mermaid-like creature and the story focused on the mysticism surrounding her. Not...whatever the hell this was.
To be honest, I think that if Shamylan would have changed the the story and worked on the characters and editing a bit, this movie would have been much better. For example, why call it a Narf and not a Nymph? Why not call those monsters the Nymphs are scared of Pond Hounds instead of whatever name they got? Why not have the writer have a more water related ritual, like chanting while in the pool, making those small ritualistic dance? What if Shamylan would have decreased the amount of praise he gets in this movie and instead be wrong about what he says, and instead have the Nymph giving him a prophecy about having a beautiful wife who will share his passion for art and inherit it for the next generation, too, spreading wisdome and knowledge across the globe with their writing? What if the scene where Giamatti and the Nymph run away from the Pond Hounds would show shady bits of their appereance while while bark and run as fast as possible towards the two? What if the muscle guy who was the one who stopped the Pond Hounds was in fact a god among men for more than hyndreds of years? What if the signs were seen in a Griddler quiz?
Seriously, look at all the possibilities I had in mind, and it makes ten times more sense than this bullshit!
Do you write? Because I'd be very willing to see that.
+Elena Kufta Thanks. ^///^ Maybe I'd work on it in the future just for shits and giggles.
O.R. Studios I can't wait! :)
+O.R. Studios While your ideas do sound interesting, think about it, that would be too simple for Shamylan. Nooo, to make what u said Shamylan grade you'll have to tear it up, shred it and then put the pieces back together in an in-cohesive order. Wait did i just remake Lady in the Water based on your story lool.
Gotta say the man does what he wants and i respect him for it, even if most of it is meeehhh.
"To be honest, I think that if Shamylan would have changed the the story and worked on the characters and editing a bit, this movie would have been much better."
The problem is that you're thinking like a decent storyteller. To understand this movie, you have to think like the most egocentric person in the world, who believes he's the second coming of Hitchcock, thinks he's the most brilliant storyteller in existence, that he's misunderstood by critics, and that he'll change the world if only people listen to him. That is, without exaggeration, the message of the film.
okay so i don't know a lot about the movie directors or writers because i don't watch movies often so ima guess
Jennifer lee - frozen
Peyton reed- ant man
Miller and Lord- Lego movie
"Who does that?"
And
"Oh honey, you can't do this" gets me everyyime.😅😅
"A quirk, no matter how stupid, always equals a developed character."
I wonder how that applies to My Hero Academia?
Very well
Accurate AF
the rice krispies joke got me so good 😂
Even try my own spontaneous Try Not Laugh Challenge I pretty much gave in starting was a shock look. Right? Right?
Points off for no Pinky and the Brain reference.
Pinky and the Brain is also referenced in the top 11 funniest Shyamalan moments. This movie is number 1 and he slips a Pinky saying Narf!
He does mention them in part 2 thinking the big plot twist of the movie is Pinky and The Brain are trying to take over the world again by driving everyone insane. Lol
How MANY Points exactly?
I know it's already old, but he *does* reference them, mate. How about watching the entire thing first before commenting something like this.
9:27 his screaming made the scene funny instead of being scary 🤣🤣🤣
It didn't make it funny it made it absolutely hilarious 😂
For some reason i saw this in theater..... my face was very comfortable in the palm of my hand for the entirety of this flick.
Aaaaah! Snap! You're right. It fit that little animation perfectly
You know you've done something wrong when even CHESTER A. FREAKING BUM says he's not high enough to come up with shamalans ideas
Oh my gosh at 7:23 I loved when he mentioned Mermando from Gravity falls.
StevenUniverseHasTakenMeOver I actually had that episode on in the background while watching this and it freaked me out a little
Shyamalan basically just made a pretty looking poster had his morning breakfast and watched Pinky and the Brain, turned it into a film and made a profit, The man really is a genius.
"Aaaahh, SNAP!"
10/10
his scream during the werewolf pool scene was priceless.
Shyamalan's movies have more quirks than My Hero Academia
Russo Brothers: How about this? I bet that we can make a superhero film off of the buildup of twenty one other superhero films, features characters and heroes from each one of those films, uses time travel to revisit scenes from those same films, wraps up the character arcs of over six heroes, features only two notable villains and a giant faceless CGI army, and all that becomes the highest grossing movie of all time!
when she said "do you feel an awakening" i thought you were going to make a star wars 7 joke
Have you felt it?
Of course I felt an awakening. I did wake up, which is better than most people that fall into a pool as much as me.
I was expecting a boner joke
Harry Lomax Oh, there's always an AWAKENING when Bryce Dallas Howard is around.
IN MY PANTS.
I was thinking about a d joke
Never stop making these M. Night Shyamalan movie reviews! hysterical
All the names narfs and stuff sound like they came straight from a Rick and Morty episode.
Ikr
I never saw this film; but to think that when it did come out back then, I was really itching so bad to see it. *regret averted*
Red_Swindler to be safe. The trailers made it seem like a different type of movie
5:30 Wow, Shyamalan can't even do an ass shot properly.
For anybody not getting it, Im pretty sure the product placement movie they were talking about was The Lego Movie
2:43 "Oh honey you can't do this"
love that
I saw this movie at the cinema. When they said "madam Narf" I was on the floor laughing and screamed "nerf madam". Strangely I wasn't hushed, but more people joined in. I had been giggling throughout the entire movie, that just sent me over the edge.
Lady in the Water is a work of art and a masterpiece. I enjoyed it from start to finish without dozing off after coming back from work long hours. I typically get tired and go to bed after work, but this beautiful film kept me awake. Until the very end of the movie when Cleveland and Story say goodbye, I shed a tear.

I love how Rob was playing with that chip in the beginning... How he ate it, spit it out, wiped it off on his comrades sleeve... It was just a funny progression.
That movie poster scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. When me and my family would go to a movie when this movie was out, I used to hide beside my dad so I wouldn’t get scared of it. Still creeps me out to this day
Same

idek why I overlooked that joke
+OverworldTNTPig What do you mean you overlooked it?
+Dylan Murphy I suck at words, I meant over thought
+OverworldTNTPig It's a joke.

Even the intro fable had these problems, it sounded like an interesting story at the beginning. After that, it's the most unfocused, self-worshipping strangest and unintentionally funniest movie I've ever seen.
A hilarious review, and one extra point for "Buenos dí-Ass" XD.
"Oh honey you cant so this" Shyamalan needs to hear this more
The way NC and the others look at the camera and always nod reminds me of Beakman's World and Mystery Science Theater
i completely forgot this film existed
Same
I didn't even know this movie even existed.
whait! this is a film ?
I now own this movie on dvd.
I absolutely could not suppress my laughter when the word "narf" came into play in this film. For me, it just came right out of nowhere.
9:27 I was laughing, but mostly because of Nostalgia Critic. "Pool! Pool! Pool! Pool! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" *Waves his arms*
This movie strangely stuck with me after I saw it as a kid. I found myself thinking about it at weird times, though, I was scared that lumps of grass were gonna tear me appart.
The opening sketch of this is easily my favorite part of any nostalgia critic episode especially saying oh honey you can't do that
13:21 Boy Kiki got sad when she grew up. Did her delivery service not pan out?
Fun fact; this movie was originally a bedtime story Shyamalan did tell his kids before turning it into both a book and a movie at the same time. So yes the names like Narf, Story, Scrunts were for intended for the kids demographic.
Narf? You reviewed a movie with the word Narf in the lore? Come on critic, that Pinky and the Brain joke was gift wrapped for you!
Yo jargon, what's up
Is it bad that the opening narration of Lady in the Water made perfect sense to me?
Estarile get help
Hearing Mr. Critic saying quirk i suddenly think about superhuman abilities from My Hero Academia
Is Lord Shyamalan wearing a Jabbawockee mask decorated to look like Amon?
Bronson Ferrigno Yes, it's a joke from the Last Airbender review.
Its actually has all his twists written on the mask. If you looked closely you can see that the black marks are the twists from his movies
That opening is right up there with Marvel and DC dividing up their future projects.
i guess shamalyan also made a bet about a film about person with 23? personalities?
That one was at least good
Actually, the species isn't "Narf" it's "Knarph". That automatically makes in legit.
She also has a godfather in jail called bad story and a nephew who works on clocks called story time
I saw this movie when theaters when i was a teenager. I hell asleep within like the 1st 20mins. However I think if i would have stayed awake I clearly could have gotten some laughs out of it😂
Pinky: "NARF!"
I cracked up so hard when he said "Mermando?!" in response to the pool splashing.
You managed to say Cypher Raige without laughing 😂......well done
Story is supposed to be a water based mythical being right? Why not name her an Undine? Or maybe even a Selkie would have worked too
This was the first Nostalgia Critic video I ever saw...instant fan! I've seen, and enjoyed, almost every other review and this is still one of my favs.
I love the, “oh honey you can’t do this!”
Was not expecting the Snap, Crackle, Pop bit to make me laugh as much as it did 😂
This is the first Nostalgia Critic episode i ever saw
Brian Thomas you picked a hell of a place to start. Every one of his shyamalan movie reviews is absolutely priceless. And his Last Airbender review is one of his most well known. By the way if you're new you've probably only watched his reviews, if you like Avatar TLA the show, i recommend his vlogs of the show as well (the only vlog series I've ever liked) where he goes over each episode per vlog
Cool dude i've been subscribed since june but i will look into that
Oh my bad, I thought that said "is the first I've ever seen"
No biggie man
Brian Thomas my first episode was fury road review
