This stuff is awesome. I wish this could happen more often.

Wait, what?

Wait, what?

Bwwhhahaha! You guys should get your own TVnetwork. Though after your appearance on TA you now have to rip FFX and Lost Oddessy a new asshole. It doesn’t have to be a seiries like FFVIII but at least one video each.

Wow, really off topic, so great video and you guys should get together more often. Maybe you could get them to come to yourplace next time though.

You and Linkra seem to work together well.

Love how this Clone Spoony and Robo Linkra storyline is playing out.

So how many Spoony clones does that make now?
Awesome, Crossover videos are excellent, I enjoy them all. Not only is Dr. Insano still a threat, but now Linkaranator and Black Lantern Spoony! I can only ponder where this string of events will lead. I’m sure it will be the epitome of awesomeness.

hahahhaa, I totally got the forklift song reference, well done sirs. “HE TRIIIIED, TO KILL ME WITH A FORKLIFT, OLE!!!”

Another great Linkara/Spoony team up! Though it seemed to end a bit abruptly.

My Brain hurts :(

Damn Linkara and his cliffhangers! I must know what happens with the Linkarinator and his army of darkness.

Damn Linkara and his cliffhangers! I must know what happens with the Linkarinator and his army of darkness.

Is Dr. Insano’s jacket I see in the closet behind 90′s kid?

You guys are fucking NUTZ!!! I could say gay for being in a hotel room together but no… you too are just Nucking Futz!!

Hey Spoony, “Begs the question” isn’t used the way you used it. Begging The Question is a logical fallacy where you assume the conclusion in your premise, then just rephrase it for the final step of the argument.

It doesn’t mean “this makes you wonder why _____”

Another great review, though I feel I may have spoiled myself watching the last three Spoony vids in a row, damn the time spent waiting for my next fix. Also, you know you jumped near the end when he executed a near-perfect Undertaker sit-up.

Ha! I love the building story and tying in of all the various events happening between both shows. Funny review too, and good job on the review with the NC!

It’s nice to see you and Linkara do a review together, but honestly I a little worry about you putting too much plot into your videos. Let me start off by saying I’m mostly just nitpicking but the two different Spoonies and Linkaras seems kind of unnecessary. I enjoyed the review, I worry about you someday falling into the same trap the AVGN did. I use to really like his stuff, and I still watch it, but now his videos are often a collection of short reviews and some kind of fight scene. I just don’t feel he often goes indepth enough in his reviews anymore and to be honest I think a lot of his side bits are somewhat self-serving. None of the internet reviewers out there need to be professional actors or novelists. That said, I did enjoy the review and at the end of the day, that’s really all I should care about.

MISSED ME! Neeheeheeehaahaahaa!

“I just don’t feel he often goes indepth enough in his reviews anymore and to be honest I think a lot of his side bits are somewhat self-serving. None of the internet reviewers out there need to be professional actors or novelists.”

In fairness, I’m the one who’s doing more of the story stuff – Spoony’s just a nice enough guy to put up with my crap. XD And I do try to restrict the story stuff to beginning and end of the review, and more often just the end, at least, so people can enjoy the funny review first. I just needed an excuse here for Spoony to be there and the Black Lantern thing presented a unique opportunity. ^^

cool review guys and i kinda like the story going with black lantern spoony and evil linkara its kinda like its own show in its own right get alittle bit in every few episodes i cant wait to see what happens next and again great review

Nice review Spoony… or should I say Black Lantern!

I’m surprised you guys reviewed Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin and yet never talked about it’s Sega CD brother, the one with the very cheesy song “Swing Time” by Mr. Big

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HlJrSeTxXQ

I wonder if this means we’ll see an epic battle between Black Lantern Spoony/Robo Linkara Vs. Linkara/Clone Spoony?

So Clone-Spoony is running the show and Original Spoony is a Black Lantern? Nooooo……..!

You two work together very well. I hope to see more crossovers from you two.

Ehh…the Captain America is a good game you say ?
Just shows what crappy taste in games you have, Linkara.

It’s always great to see Spoony and Linkara working together. Though watching the review it made me think of two references you might of missed but probably isn’t necessary. The one where Spoony is complaining about Electro shooting lightning bolts made me think of that LARP meme “lightning bolt”. The other is when in spider-man you had to fight all the previous bosses all at once reminded me of I think a hack of megaman where you have to fight all the bosses at once. That one might be hard to reference for.

Can we expect one more secret video during your time with Nostalgia Critic and Linkara to appear soon or is that asking too much.

The guy at 10:35 is Linkara!

Fuck the fall movies. Spoony’s cheerful levels of production are what’s keeping me entertained.

Spoony and Linkara show! You should release a DVD

Like the Blake’s 7 refrence.

Damn Spoony, first the one with NC and Linkara now with Linkara with some more canon. You’re really on board with this crossover-review stuff.

Ooooooo I just love Linkara and Spoony together!!!! :D:D:D

insano must be hiding in the closet waiting to kill the 90′s kid…..WITH SCIENCE!!!

During the Kingpin battle I kept screaming:

“YOU”RE SUPPOSED TO SHOOT WEB AT THE CHAIN!”

Yeah, if you sling enough gunk at the cahin holding MJ, it stops lowering her into the fire and gives you more time to hit the boss. =/

Loved the monty python reference =)

my brrrain hurts!

Well done, guys. Spoons was frightening as the Black Lantern. :P

WE JUST GET ORIGINAL SPOONY BACK DAMMIT…although i do admit this story is fun and i really do hope we get a fight between old spoony and clone spoony that be great lol, was an awsome reveiw lol

Now *that’s* an obscure MST3K reference. Good show!

Ho damn you said flesh!!!
you should have said BRAINS!!
it would be so much cooler xD

You two are the Luigi and Mario/Dempsy and Makepeace/Batman and Superman of teh internets.

Noah, if this keeps up you’re officially going to need a “Spoony Experiment” backstory tab.

Noah Antweiler of Earth.

RISE!

but if you use a phoenix down on the undead it destroys them…

MISSED ME!!! XD It’s just hillarious! I love bloopers!!!
Great video Spoony and Linkara!!! Keep on cooperatig!

great video!! um, i just have one question… what was linkara doing in a hotel room with spoony’s corpse before the black lantern power ring zombified him(spoony)? <:-P

I really hope you do a commentary for this, I really love your commentarys

THE PLOT THICKENS!
this is an awesome subplot to the collaboration videos

Awesome reviews, blooper at the end was great. I wasn’t expecting a crossover so soon but I guess you guys had a lot of time in that hotel room.

“In fairness, I’m the one who’s doing more of the story stuff – Spoony’s just a nice enough guy to put up with my crap.

Thank you for your reply ^_^ Like I said before, this is really just me nitpicking and I don’t want to give you the impression that I didn’t enjoy what you guys made. It was a lot of fun to watch and I’m grateful, as always, that both of you (along with the Nostalgia Critic and some others) continue to put out content that I can view for free. It’s just that, from my perspective, I tend to look at Spoony/Linkara as more alias’ than characters. I guess that’s pretty silly of me, especially seeing as Spoony killed himself off in the FF8 review so clearly it’s meant to be viewed more as a character/persona. But when I see a Spoony Experiment review or AT4W I usually just view it as you guys personally reviewing something you don’t like. What I mean is, for example, I don’t envision Noah the person saying something significantly different about the game than Spoony the character would.

I guess my argument gets pretty silly and it’s based off of wild assumptions that aren’t really fair (I shouldn’t assume because I’ve seen your material that I’m qualified to say when you guys are acting and when you guys are just being yourselves). But the point of this overly long post is, I would’ve bought it if you just said you were teaming up while you were both in Chicago or that you got together to tackle a series of really bad comic book/video game crossovers.

Blake 7!!!!

oh pls god no!
run away!!!!!!

#17: I actually like it when there’s a story to the review. But everyone has their own personal preferences.

“#17: I actually like it when there’s a story to the review. But everyone has their own personal preferences.”

Yah, that’s true. It’s really just my personal preference, most people might be on the other side of the spectrum in that regard.

“great video!! um, i just have one question… what was linkara doing in a hotel room with spoony’s corpse before the black lantern power ring zombified him(spoony)? <:-P"

Notice how he kind of faded in as opposed to simply rising? ^_~

Linkara, you and teh Spoony one are incredible.

Maybe too much plot and very little reviewing.

@#52: There is no spoon…y corpse. Seriously. As you noticed, he fades in, so he comes from nowhere.
The only remains of Spoony where used to create the clone.

@Me: Oh I didn’t notice 52 was quoting someone else.

So, wait. Black Lantern Spoony is original Spoony after being blown up, zombiefied, resurrected, and then rezombified? And the Spoony doing TSE is Clone Spoony? TGWTG continuity is become more convoluted that Battlestar Galactica.

GREATEST MST3K REFERENCE, EVER!!!!!!

So, should the Spoony clone be named Noah Reilly now that the two are co-existing? (Real one and clone) ha-ha

Any way good job with the review.

I enjoyed it overall.

These are okay once in a while to change it up, but I really, really prefer the un-diluted, un-interrupted stream of conscienceness that spoony usually delivers. The AVGN did some reviews like this, where there was heavy editing and story elements, but people were generally not a fan of those, hence there weren’t as many done in that format, imo. I mean, I either want to hear your review, or I want to see a story, not both. But parodying whatever you’re reviewing is different and always good. Still, I know you guys are having fun doing these collaborations, so keep it up… just hopefully not more than the solo, frustrated, diatribe ranting.. those are my favorite!

“great video!! um, i just have one question… what was linkara doing in a hotel room with spoony’s corpse before the black lantern power ring zombified him(spoony)? > ohhhh.. i totally didnt notice that the first time :-) hehehe…

i liked it but it did kinda look like this was just an excuse to make as many running jokes as physically possible by the end.

Man are Spoony an Linkara neighbors or something cause they seem to do these collaborations pretty often.

wow… simply wow I find it hard to believe that anybody could dislike the story that came with this review. it was incredibly well written and acted. it’s amazing what you (spoony and linkara) guys can accomplish with just a modern everyday video camera. dont listen to the douchebags who didnt like the story i found it brilliantly executed. keep it up, your doing great!

You guys are so silly.

Dude, if Spoony has a clone there can be only one logical naming method… Spoony 1 and Spoony 2.

I had Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin when it was released for the Genesis! Now, keep in mind this was before there were fully 3D games that let you swing around Manhattan as Spider-Man. I thought the game rocked simply because it was the best Spider-Man game I had played up to that point, and the first that really got the web swinging mechanic right. Of course, the only other SM game I had played was for the Atari 2600, so that isn’t saying much.

Okay, this story has potential. I’m curious to see where you guys take this.

Do Black Lanterns have the same powers as the Green Lanterns’ rings have? Cause it’s gonna be really hard to explain why Black Lantern Spoony isn’t blowing up buildings and crap with his power ring.

I love it! it’s like we have our own little comic book arc xD

@Scramlaz

That’s impossible, BSG has one of the worst continuety’s I’ve tryed to make sense of. And that was just from the half of the show I saw. I must also agree with some of the above, more ranting please?

I’m so sick of Terminator music.

He tried to kill me with a forklift!!!!!! Looks to me like Spoony Clone has another arch-nemesis besides Dr. Insano.

You know it’s a wonder no one has started begging Noah to do a commentary track for this as well.

I can’t believe you guys left out Whirlwind in the Avengers bit. He had the most epic laugh as well as dialogue.

“You will be the ones escaping!”

Wait… A double sized bed, a hotel room, Linkara and Spoony went to the comic convention together… Oh my god!
Nah only kidding, but that would be a weird twist in Spooning with Spoony :)
I played the first game back in the day when I barley understood English and played ALOT of demos as internet was still under coconstruction, so it was a bit of a flashback.

Great video :) And I love the story aspects, but in general Spoony and Linkara play off of each other so well.

You guys make me come buckets.

Got to tell you spoon.. i use to enjoy watching your reviews.. cause they were…well… reviews of a sort. If i wanted to see the guy with the glasses, NC and all the others i would be on there sites checking them out.

Same here, you’re kinda making me wonder why you have your own site.

Hey, more plot! Awesome!

So wait…which Spoony was killed by the Linkara Terminator? Was it the Original Spoony that Linkara resurrected, or the clone Spoony? The last two scenes need a transition sequence, because one minute Spoony intends to kill his clone, and the next scene he just comes out of the bathroom like nothing happened. What the Crap?

Other than that, I really enjoy this development. So these videos actually have an overarching plot. Cool.

Regarding MechaLinkara’s plans: is this going to become some sort of build-up to the 2nd Aniversary video on TGWTG?

Here’s my idea: MechaLinkara is assembling an army in order to take over not only AT4W, but the whole TGWTG site. The project will also involve Dr. Insano, will be funded by Michael Bay, and is all conducted by Melvin, Brother of the Joker.

Stupid? Maybe. Insane? Probably. Awesome? Most Definitely!

You failed to mention that the designers of Captain America and the Avengers were under the impression that the Vision is either a woman or the world’s most flamboyant homosexual robot.

@ 83 Bluecho “So wait…which Spoony was killed by the Linkara Terminator?”

It was the original Spoony, Bluecho. The Spoony-clone is still in Arizona. Also I wonder if Noah relizes that he can use this bit to give us the official story to Dr. Insano. The only question is which Spoony will become our favorite nutball scientist? The clone or the original?

LIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELD

Also, damn, Spoony. You should’ve reviewed the original Arcade version of Captain America and The Avengers! Now THAT’s a classic. The Genesis version is… passable.

But the SNES version.

People have died after playing it.

Spoony just can’t get a break.

I liked the captain america game even if the arcade version was much better

Vision could phase in the arcade game and Ironmans lasers were better thsn everyone elses range.

I think cap was the strongest upclose and hawk eye was th all arounder. None of this mattered in the snes version though

@80

He has his own website cause most of the people on TGWTG are also fetured on/ have their own other websites. Digram that sentance! Anyway bad grammer aside, a considerable amount of Spoony’s content is still exclusive to TSE.

I nearly spit out my drink when Spoony said “Pictures of a guy in a forklift coming at you!? 50 Bucks!”

Gotta say, I’m a fan of the reviews that have their own plots. And this is definitely one of the best.

Ooooh….interesting plot twisties!
On a side note, HEY LINKARA!….
If you’re still in the Spoony- cloning business, I’d to place a standing order of 1 (one) Noah. Just tell me your price tag (plus shipping and handling) and I will cut you a check right this minute. (Just don’t forget to punch a few holes in his postal container.) Thank you from grateful customer….
Angelique ;^)

But don’t phoenix downs kill zombies?

Linkara and Spoony is such a good pairing. I don’t see much like it online. Everybody’s always going for schtick and conflict with such duos. But these two just…hit the spot for me.

HEY!!!

LINKARA GLANCED UP AT THE CAMERA NEAR THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO, SO HE CLEARLY DIDN’T KNOW WHEN HE SHOULD START TALKING!!! THAT’S SOOOOO UNPROFESSIONAL!!!

@70/Brian: To be honest it’s not really been explained yet. I’ve seen some constructs getting made, but they’ve not been used for combat purposes yet. The few key Black Lanterns we’ve seen so far have either used weapons or their own powers (I have yet to read the latest BN Batman and GLC so I appreciate my knowledge is a little out of date).

I’ve got to be honest, when I saw the title I was expecting you two to talk about Blackest Night. The review was still a great idea and I liked what you did with the Black Lantern ring. Also loved the plot points and I can’t WAIT to see how it develops in Linkara and Spoony’s videos.

Hope you two can crossover again soon as I think your colabs are always the best.

The Amazing Spiderman versus the Kingpin was kind of awesome for the Sega CD. I really liked the anime cutscenes, and the CD music was good. Still it is basically the same gameplay as the Genesis version. I am not much of platform gamer, but I was able to beat the game. Plot is stupid, but its the first Spiderman game I played that actually felt like Spiderman (Starting on Atari 2600, and working our way up to some terrible NES games).

I found the Captain America and the Avengers game to be an uninspired beat-em up for Genesis. If you are going to beat up of waves of like colored enemies on the Genesis, the name of the game you should be playing is Golden Axe. If you prefer to use a gun, the name of the game is Gunstar Heroes (pure awesomeness in two player). Altered Beast gets points for coolness (POWER UP!), and Streets of Rage is runner up to Golden Axe for pure smashing face factor as a beat-em up and the twist. Then again, maybe you should bring out the Super NES for Final Fight and Batman Returns, or Turbo 16 for Splatterhouse, or even the NES for TMNT 2: The Arcade game. With so many beat-em up options, there is no reason to play a very uninspired beat-em up.

You should do some sort epic battle with the termilinkara and Doctor Insano saves the day that would be awesome.

I lol’d at the use of the Blake 7 clip. Awesome show!

Thomas Youngblood is my favorite guitarist.

Yeaah

you and linkara shoudl keep doing stuff together, your a great team.
I also have a game gear, still got it tho the d-pads busted. I agree sonic portable was a demon. I belive the hardest one I had was acutally prince of persia – then again the 2d version any format seemed to be a demon
Also on a random note – you being undead/evil is hot :$

The funny thing is that the Sega CD version of Spiderman vs. Kingpin is about one hundred million times better. It’s probably the absolute best Spiderman game ever made.

^SWIIIING TIIIIIME
FLYING FOR JUSTICE

That song alone makes the SCD version worth buying. The best Spiderman game ever made,though,would have to be the PS1/N64/PC/DC Spiderman. None of the other games even come close to capturing the comic book essence like that game did.

You two should keep doing stuff together, mostly games.
I mean, you two are the only ones on TGWTG who have Lets Plays

Plot holes a gigantic ;)

One of the first things I saw for both Linkara and Spoony and still one of my favs. You two play off each other very well.

And something ate the rest of my comment out of my brain… wow,… me past 2am = fail, oh well.

Thanks for sharing! Was a complete blast

-edit-
okay, working on a project while watching old reviews then commenting on them apparently crashed my brain more than I thought, I confused when I saw this with the Wolverine review… oops… still pretty cool stuff :)

come on. horrible first shot on the zombie. everyone knows a headshot is the best way

…Okay, you two need to sing more often. xD

Also ZOMBIE SPOONY OH MY BOB THAT IS AWESOME.

my brain hurts….

Coming back to this, I really want to know why Spoony was even chosen as a black lantern. (origins!!~XD) I miss black lantern Spoony already…T_T

all your complaints about the spiderman game are pretty stupid. you get hurt if you “screw around” too much. yeah, it’s called a video game. very irate gameresque.
