Dr. Erwin Armstrong (The Boss Baby: Family Business)
Dr. Armstrong is the main antagonist of The Boss Baby: Family Business. He is the founder of The Acorn Center (Tabitha's school) but in real he is a scheming and smart baby who plans to get rid of parents and rules.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) To get the baby out of the crib, He is a very boring and generic villain that only cares about his reputation, doesn't want anybody making him look like a fool, doesn't want parents to boss and telling babies what to do.
 * 2) His goal to get rid of adults all around the world using their phone apps and making babies take over the world is completely nonsensical, even for DreamWorks Animation villain standards, especially since he teaches children (including babies) at his school, but wanting babies to turn bad by getting rid of their parents, when the children at his school also have parents to be supportive and yet he doesn’t do anything with the children after their parents were brainwashed by their phones through an app he created which just goes to show how hypocritical Dr Armstrong is. Sound familiar?
 * 3) The climax between the Templeton children and him is just an lazy rehash of the climax from Penguins of Madagascar, only with humans and had more filler than that climax, the only reason why the climax was so dragged out is just serves as an attempt for the writers to make him a powerful villain that could surpass other way better DreamWorks villains like Drago and Lord Shen.
 * 4) He’s basically a bootleg copy of Professor Poopypants from Captain Underpants since both characters are intelligent teachers who wants to get rid of something around the world (laughter and adults), expect without the charm that makes Poopypants a great villain.
 * 5) He’s also shown to be cringeworthy as well, such as the scene where he, in his baby form, dancing with the brainwashed adults at the play before attacking the Templeton children.
 * 6) His backstory on why he doesn’t want parents to be in his way is very cliched and stupid, as he runs away from home just because he’s more smarter than his parents, even though he’s still a baby, if so, then police could’ve find him and take him back to his parents under house arrest.
 * 7) The plot-twist where he is actually a baby who doesn’t age the entire time is very poorly executed and weak, especially considering his nonsensical backstory and goal, in fact, the plot twist could’ve been better if it was more fleshed out if it weren’t for the backstory and goal.
 * 8) Overall he’s considered a generic doomsday villain due to all these reasons above, even more than Francis E Francis from the first movie.
 * 9) He once committed animal abuse as he was throwing Precious, a pony out of his school calling him a dog and cat during the climax.
 * 10) His baby form is a bit ugly and uncanny in comparison to his robot adult design and the other characters.
 * 11) Aside from getting punished by Tina, He most of the time never gets any comeuppance for his actions, most notably for brainwashing the adults, making his redemption very rushed and weak.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He does run a nice school called the Acorn Centre.
 * 2) Jeff Goldblum does a good job voicing him.
 * 3) Despite getting off Scott free for his actions, the scene where he reunites with his parents is heartwarming.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) Throughout the good chunk, she was flanderized in this sequel, going from being cheerful, yet a caring friend who is later queen of the Pop trolls to an overly optimistic queen having trouble with listening to her peers.
 * 2) His plan is very stupid and pathetic since the idea of getting rid of Christmas in the kingdom is very unreasonable.
 * 3) Her character development from the first film was sadly derailment which lead to Branch nearly broke up with her
 * 4) In the climax, she stole Barb’s guitar and destroying all the music strings of the tribes, making herself and all of the trolls remaining grey and plain, without any music going through, our heroine, ladies and gentlemen.

Good Qualities

 * 1) She still cares for her adventure and her friends (except Branch) to stop Queen Barb getting a lot of strings to corrupt her power.
 * 2) She was likeable in the other entries outside of Trolls World Tour.

Bad Qualities
= Overall =
 * 1) They lack the charm and charisma they had in the first two seasons.
 * 2) The Fast Crew are heavily flanderized and they often behave in a nonsensical, annoying, frustrating, and stupid manner, and neither of them improved or redeemed themselves in the infamous series finale, "Stalks on a Plane", which was a disappointment that had negative reception from critics and fans alike.
 * 3) *Turbo went from a speed demon, yet likable and fun-loving racer with speed to an egoistical Gary Stu and the show's version of Scorch Supernova from Escape from Planet Earth who usually cares about winning (this can be justified due to Turbo won the Indy 500 race in the movie but still), his fans. and mustaches more so than the first two seasons.
 * 4) *Skidmark went from a very crazy, yet clever and intelligent scientific mechanic to crazier than he was in the first two seasons and often cares more about conspiracy theories, science, and trapping mystical creatures and gets off scot free from his actions (especially in Best Frenemies).
 * 5) *Burn went from a snarky and toughest, yet strong and badass action girl who cares about her teammates to a greedy and aggressive mean popular girl who became a Mary Sue and constantly bullies her teammates (even Chet) whenever they mess something up for her or get what she wants, sometimes if by accident and even for petty reasons.
 * 6) *White Shadow went from a dimwitted yet funny snail with some intelligence to a dumber idiot than he was in the first two seasons who constantly behaves as if he's lost all signs of intelligence and cares about food than his other trails (e.g. Kung Fu, and racing).
 * 7) *Whiplash went from a serious, intelligent, skilled, and kind leader to a psychotic, immature, controlling, and abusive, short-tempered, loud man who often treated the other snails like slaves and became very dumber much like Skidmark and White Shadow.
 * 8) *Smoove Moove went from an egotistical, yet helpful and groovy laired DJ to a lazy slacker and Butt-Monkey whose insecurities and egoistical personality get worse.
 * 9) *Chet can be an OCD overprotective Neat Freak at times as he wants everything to be perfect and became a misfortunately bigger punching bag than the first two seasons.
 * 10) Their chemistry with each other comes off as lousy and mean-spirited, compared to the first two seasons.
 * 11) They permanently killed the Turbo franchise.
 * 12) There are times where the crew doesn't care about one of their members getting treated like dirt.
 * 13) There are episodes that show one of the Fast crew members at their worst, examples are.
 * 14) * Whiplash in Crew Detective and Worst in Show.
 * 15) * Burn in Hawaii Five-No, The Dry Spell, and Belle of the Gumball.
 * 16) * Skidmark in Best Frenemies.
 * 17) * Smoove Moove and Turbo in 137 Hours.
 * 18) The crew can be hypocrites at times, especially since they don't seem to care about the crew members being treated like dirt like 137 Hours and Best Frenemies.



Good Qualities

 * 1) Despite being stupid, Myles got his comeuppance by getting sucked in a wormhole.
 * 2) Colm Meaney does a great job voicing him.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) She was heavily flanderized in this series, going from a girl with past trauma to a stereotypical hippie girl.
 * 2) She was at her worst in Retreat, as she forces her friends to not use their powers and superhero equipment at camp and leave them in a bag at a random tree in the woods which is very stupid and hypocritical of her since she was involved in the fights with her powers and is also friends with certain people like Zee Zatara and Kara Danvers who were both born with superpowers, as a result of her actions, they easily get defeated by the plant zombie army and invites Pamela Lillian Isley/Poison Ivy even though she tried to kill Jessica in the previous episodes such as Misgiving Tree which is something that makes Jessica seemed to be more of a antagonist rather than being a member of the Super Hero Girls.
 * 3) She's a total hypocrite when it comes to believing in violence, since in Sweet Justice, she told Diana that she don't believe in violence, though in many later episodes, she done many violent things including, but not limited to;
 * 4) *Trying to murder Steve Trevor along with Kara, Karen and Zee just because he falls in love with Diana in Crushing It.
 * 5) *Fighting over a car they bought along with the other Super Hero Girls (even Karen, even though she’s too young to drive) in Super Wonder Bat Bee Zee Lantern Mobile.
 * 6) *Threatening to beat up Hal Jordan in Breaking News.
 * 7) *Not only she does those violent things, but there were also times that she was careless about anyone fighting and never even bothered to stop them such as the infamous episode, Scrambled Eggs, where she was reduced to a minor filler role due to shoehorning 15 more characters for the sake for padding out the episode’s runtime.
 * 8) Aside from Retreat, she can also be incredibly stupid at times in other episodes, an great example of this is in the episode, Rage Cat where she actually tries to give away Dexter and even keeps him as a pet even though he threatens and has violent relationships with other people according to the employees at the centre, which Jessica outright refuses to listen to the employees, thinking that Dexter was a normal cat, clearly showing that Jessica is an absolute moron when it comes to dealing with violence.

= The Red Farm Turkeys (Free Birds) =

Why They Suck

 * 1) They have been known to be brainless morons when it comes to living on a farm, for example, they think that the farmer was their friend, even though he took turkeys to kill and eat them every Thanksgiving,
 * 2) They’re stereotypical rednecks
 * 3) They’re also hypocritically racist as well, as they treated Reggie like dirt just because he has a purple/blue head, yet they yet the old brown headed turkey in their flock and don’t treat him like dirt similar to what they did to Reggie.

Big Tex Arkana (Buddy Thunderstruck Human AU)
Tex Arkana Sr (also known as Big Tex Arkana or simply Big Tex) is one of the antagonists in the comic series, Buddy Thunderstruck Human AU. He is the father of Buddy's rival, Tex Jr and owner of the Gold Brick Pawn shop. His plan is to let Buddy lose a truck race and sell Thunderstruck Trucking by thinking up ways to make his son win, even if it means to cheat.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) To start off the list, He is often notable for being a Buddy Thunderstruck version of Mr. Krabs and Moneybags from the Spyro the Dragon series due to them treating the titular protagonists and their friends like crap because they get more attention than them, owns businesses for money, are cash cow lairs who often violate workers rights and do illegal stuff in media they appeared in, giving both Mr. Krabs and Moneybags a run for their money, the differences is that Mr. Krabs and Big Tex are single fathers with one child while Moneybags is married and have four sons, and Big Tex and Moneybags both turned down their greediness in later media of their respective franchises unlike Mr. Krabs who possibly stayed the same as his flanderization.
 * 2) He's sometimes an Karma Houdini who got off Scott free despite his illegal actions as seen in earlier episodes, examples are hiring Jacko to make everybody hate Buddy (which he doesn't look anything like him) by bullying some of the townsfolk and blaming on the real Buddy even to the point where they actually got him and Darnell arrested (who are innocent and done nothing wrong by the way) in Buddy Double, teamed up with Robby Burgles, Jacko Valtrades and Artichoke (who is an temporary employee) to steal Buddy's driving secrets after he become a taxi driver in Thunderstruck Rab Cab, left his son being locked out of their house while going on a trip in "Babysitters Yo" and thinks that the things that Robby stole were "his" in "Get the Hock Out", the former two of which just so that Tex Jr would become more popular than Buddy in truck racing and get his own trophy.
 * 3) * Speaking of Get the Hock Out, he's infamous for having repo man methods that are literally illegal laws (fraud, threating, vandalism, breaking and entering, animal cruelty and thievery) disguised as methods as well as being at his worst out of all the earlier segments where he's in his greedy mode to the point where it made Big Tex the least likable Greasepit citizen in the entire show where he literality once hired Buddy and Darnell (who are both already race sponsors for Thunderstruck Trucking) just to trick them into assaulting, scamming and stealing stuff from other people (including some of their friends' stuff like Buddy's cousin Muncie's tables and chairs for the Concho Bolo, the Weaselbrats' hot tub and computer, Leroy's footstall and armchair, Nick the New Guy's TV, and the Beavers' hairdryer which gives good comeuppance since they stole all of Buddy's prize money) so that they can get their stuff back from him which shows how he's a huge spoiled bully he is to the people who got their stuff from his pawn shop, after Buddy realized that Muncie was right about stealing other peoples' things and made bad deals with him are very greedy of him and Buddy told him to give everybody's stuff, what does Big Tex do? he refuses to take the Thunderstruck cousins' criticism over him and the stuff that the main duo have stole until Artichoke, the "Sheriff Cannonball" of this episode, arrived for his stolen bike. This was his most infamous moment with his employees in the series and it ruined the reputation of the episode's writer, Chris Pearson who is best known for mh:besttvshows:Dan Vs.
 * 4) *Apart from his comeuppance from Artichoke, he actually never got an prober punishment such as getting arrested by Sheriff Cannonball or losing more money from his pawnshop dealing with lawsuits and fines from Thunderstruck Trucking and other animals who either got their stuff broken or stolen by his two new repo men despite the three of them breaking illegal laws and that Buddy and Darnell, race sponsors for Thunderstruck Trucking were involved in.
 * 5) * Following this, He rarely shows any respect and sends any of his employees off to torture any of the townsfolk to get whatever Big Tex wants like everything that they brought from his pawnshop or making everyone hate Buddy for Jacko's crimes.
 * 6) Because of the Beavers and other animals in Greasepit, Big Tex is, if not much of an prizeier animal abuser than both Dean Cuizeen and Ms. Grunion since he committed animal cruelty to the animals by upright bullying them for their stuff and money which is ironic since he's friends with two demon boars which resembled him and Tex Jr and yet they're both originally animals.
 * 7) * In fact, he has broken more laws than other Buddy Thunderstruck villains like Robby Burgles or even Belvedere Moneybags yet he never even gone to jail once in the show unlike his employees who worked at his pawnshop.
 * 8) He has a very bratty and selfish attitude (especially in Get the Hock Out) which means that he's mostly an stereotypical greedy money-obsessing business man who barley shows any respect to his employees nor his costumers (as mentioned above).
 * 9) Much like Mr. Krabs, He also has an huge unhealthy habit of treating his pawnshop like an bank and once thinks that hiring people without having any money to pay him and giving them free work are okay when they aren't, someone needs to tell him that while people need money to pay for a job, trying to save money for his pawnshop and his son, Tex Jr and it isn’t worth the risk of scamming or bullying customers over their money. If anything, Big Tex should probably lose more money and went bankrupt dealing with lawsuits and thousand dollar fines.
 * 10) * Since he violates workers rights, he's shown to be running a pawnshop with criminals (like Robby Burgles and Jacko Valtrades) and underpaid employees (like Buddy Thunderstruck, Darnell Fetzervalve and his pet ferret, Darren and Artichoke) that hardly work for any wage unlike the two other business owners in Greasepit, Muncie and Leroy who at least gave a good amount of pay to their hardworking employees and don't hire criminals or underpaid employees for their businesses unlike Big Tex.
 * 11) He's shown to be a huge hypocrite as seen in "Buddy Double", when Tex Jr lost the truck race, Big Tex took it too seriously by yelling "Fart Nugget! I hate me some Buddy Thunderstruck" yet he talks and made deals to the same guy who is his son's rival in later episodes of the show.
 * 12) * He and Jacko make Buddy (and lesser to extent Darnell) the most hatred citizen in Greasepit which caused him to get arrested and not be in the next race as revenge for his son's losing streak when he actually like Tex Jr who shown to be the most hatred racer because of his losing streak which shows his hypocrisy side yet again.
 * 13) He's also an terrible father to Tex Jr similar to Buck Cluck as he's known to use his son to lie about his race number being "lucky" and treating him like he was his cash cow even when he's the most hatred racer among Figure 8 fans, even to the point where he made terrible and even false promotions of him with his "lucky" 13 number during the race just so that the Arkanas can capitalize on Buddy Thunderstruck (which most Figure 8 fans were very interested to see the race just for him) in order to let Tex Jr win including the billboard in which Big Tex made as an excuse to cash-in on Buddy and prove his son's "good luck" in the episode "Buddy Double".
 * 14) * Despite treating his son like a cash cow, Big Tex went on a trip (which was mentioned by Tex Jr) without noticing that his son is in charge of the Arkanas' house before he got locked out and sleep in the dumpster outside until Buddy and Darnell picks him up and babysit him in "Babysitters Yo" which shows how an stupid and abusive father he is despite turning down his greediest in "The Sneezing Fits of Death".
 * 15) In fact, his actions towards a lot of people is the reason why Tex Jr is Buddy's rival (though he did get devolvement with him bit by bit) and people hating him as he is today.
 * 16) He was so stereotypically greedy and villainous that even some people (apart from Buddy, Darnell and Artichoke) may not want to go to his pawnshop to get stuff there anymore while others (like Muncie Thunderstruck) even have the courage to criticize him for the trouble he caused with his repo men.
 * 17) He treats Jacko Valtrades, Robby Burgles, Artichoke (in Thunderstruck Rab Cab), Buddy Thunderstruck, Darnell Fetzervalve (both in Get the Hock Out) and even his own son, Tex Jr (in Hit and Dumb) like slaves instead of employees. Even to the point where Robby teach Buddy and Darnell how to be repo-men instead of firing them after they spend the evening at the Weaselbrats' hot tub when they're supposed to steal it and told Jacko Valtrades to get in the weeknight race to defeat Buddy so that he can't win.
 * 18) While Harry Chaskin does a fine job voicing him, his lines and evil laugh in Get the Hock Out can be very laughable due to the terrible writing of the aforementioned episode, especially the "Ha! Over my dead... Body?" line when he's still alive and well in most of the series.
 * 19) He was heavily flanderized in Get the Hock Out (much like the other characters who appeared in Get the Hock Out and one of the worst flanderized characters in there besides Auntie Uncle and Artichoke) and Thunderstruck Rab Cab as he became an more mean popular business man than he was in Buddy Double. Heck he even stole a voice clip of Carmen Sandiego from the 2019 Carmen Sandiego episode, The Need of Speed Caper.
 * 20) * Even after the Sneezing Fits of Death, he became much of an Gary Stu than Auntie Uncle (Mary Sue) in later episodes since nothing bad happens to him.
 * 21) He never even hired an better mechanic like Darnell to fix Tex Jr's truck in every race he's been in which resulted in his truck being destroyed in some races he's been in unlike Buddy who already has Darnell (who is an mechanic by the way) to fix his truck when part of the Rabble Rouser fall apart, also in "Thunderstruck Rab Cab", He lets Buddy teach Tex Jr fake driving lessons as revenge for stealing his driving secrets and wrecking part of his truck while Darnell possibly work for Big Tex into fixing the Rabble Rouser for him.
 * 22) Though he improved in later episodes, his redemption is clearly rushed since he never even learned from his crimes in earlier episodes.
 * 23) He thinks that Buddy only cares about the frame he's got rather than anything else when it's not true, Buddy actually cares about other things as well including people like Muncie and Darnell and his truck, the Rabble Rouser, yet Big Tex only cares about money, breaking laws with his employees, wanting Tex Jr to win a race and sell Thunderstruck Trucking for money as well as promoting him at truck racing than anything else.
 * 24) He believes that he has full control over Tex Jr's personal life, like in "Thunderstruck Rab Cab".
 * 25) He is somewhat underused in the show as he only appears in 9 segments of the show (included the quick cameo in the interactive special, The Maybe Pile) compared to Muncie and Leroy who both appeared in more segments and were better business owners in Greasepit than Big Tex.
 * 26) He is somewhat had a strict set of time for people who got their stuff from his pawnshop as once they don't pay him back, he sends his repo men to steal their stuff while using his illegal repo man "methods" to get their stuff and bring them to his pawnshop which is a crime that every employee (including himself) from his pawnshop should be arrested and sent to the judge by Sheriff Cannonball.
 * 27) He once evilly laugh at the Greasepit citizens getting their stuff stolen by Buddy and Darnell which shows that he rarely show any regard of anyone besides his employees and Tex Jr to the point where he was one of the most cruelest characters in any of CloudCo Entertainment's current brands and could also gave Mr. Krabs a run for his money for the most greediest business man in animated media.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) As mentioned above and despite being a Gary Stu, he gotten better in "The Sneezing Fits of Death" after Tex Jr. become friends with Buddy and Darnell and become less greedier and cruel to them than earlier episodes and mostly shows compassion for some other non-employed people like Belvedere Moneybags and Sheriff Cannonball.
 * 2) * Apart from the Sneezing Fits of Death, he was much likable in "Mayor May Not", "Hit and Dumb" and Opposite of Awesome" as he's shown to be nicer to Buddy and Darnell.
 * 3) His human design is decent looking and outright cute much like the rest of the characters from the show.
 * 4) Harry Chaskin is still great voicing Big Tex.
 * 5) He is a decently funny character at times, especially in later episodes.
 * 6) The idea of a boar running a pawn shop is still interesting along with the show's idea of an anthropomorphic animal truck racing cartoon.
 * 7) He got some karma from Artichoke along with Buddy and Darnell for stealing his motorcycle mistaking it for a chopper in Get the Hock Out and Buddy Double where he realizes that 13 is not his son's lucky number which caused people to boo at the Arkanas, though this isn't enough to remove him from the Karma Houdini party.
 * 8) * Not only that, but some of his "employees" also got comeuppance from other people like Jacko Valtrades in Buddy Double where he was arrested by Deputy Hoisenberry for getting Buddy and Darnell arrested for his crimes over town and Buddy and Darnell in Get the Hock Out where they got thrown out of the Concho Bolo by Muncie for trying to steal tables and chairs from her restaurant.
 * 9) * Out of all the 6 employees of the pawnshop, his son, Tex Jr is at least the only employee at the Gold Brick pawnshop who doesn't do Big Tex’s workers rights nor been forced to do illegal crimes unlike the others.

Undeserved Best Animated Feature Winners, (in my Opinion)

 * Happy Feet for Best Animated Feature over Paprika (which is not nominated but still)
 * Big Hero 6 for Best Animated Feature over The LEGO Movie, How to Train Your Dragon 2, Song of the Sea and Tale of the Princess Kaguya. Sure Big Hero 6 is good, but the other films that got overshadowed by it have more beautiful animation and much more clever written stories while Big Hero 6 is pretty average and predictable, especially considering its infamous use of the twist-villain trope. Even Schaffrillas Productions admitted that Big Hero 6 didn't meet up when compared to the other 4. Not to mention, these infamous quotes.
 * Brave for Best Animated Feature over Paranorman and Wreck-It Ralph. While not a bad movie yet Brave is one of Pixar's weaker films next to The Good Dinosaur.
 * Frozen for Best Animated Feature over The Wind Rises. Despite having its own fans, it has gained a really negative reputation for being way too popular.
 * Toy Story 4 for Best Animated Feature over Klaus, I Lost my Body, Missing Link, and How to Train Your Dragon: the Hidden World, while Toy Story 4 is good, some people didn’t like it, considering the movie’s flaws such as the fact that a forth film to the Toy Story franchise was a bit of a unnecessary sequel since the third film which also won Best Animated Feature, ended the franchise on a perfect note. Even Vailskibum admitted that Toy Story 4 didn’t met up when compared to Klaus in two videos.
 * Encanto for Best Animated Feature over The Mitchells Vs. The Machines and Flee. Despite Encanto being good, it didn't deserve the award since those 3 presenters (who just so happen to be the live-action versions of the Disney princesses, Cinderella, Ariel, and Jasmine) blatantly disregarded animation as a stupid kids thing which those two films completely defied since Mitchells is supposed to be for all ages, including adults, and that Flee was made for a PG-13 audience.
 * Note: No animated movies that actually deserved the Best Animated Feature award like Up for Best Animated Feature over Coraline, Fantastic Mr. Fox and the Secret of Kells, since people (including me) actually loved that movie, even though I’ve enjoyed the latter two more than that movie, I decided to kick that off the list.

My Favourite Pages from Terrible Tv Shows Wiki
Get the Hock Out is the 5th segment and the first half of the 3rd episode of mh:besttvshows:Buddy Thunderstruck.

Plot
When Auntie Uncle loses all her furniture to debt to Big Tex, Buddy takes a job from Big Tex as a repo man to get his own stuff back.

Why It Should Get The Hock Out

 * 1) To start, this episode is infamous for being an incredibly mean-spirited Greasepit residents torture episode due to the citizens of Greasepit being tortured and treated like slaves similarly to what Lois Lane did to the Super Hero Girls in Breaking News all thanks to Buddy and Darnell's antics. This evidence clearly shows that Big Tex hardly shows any respect by literality sending his employees to do illegal crimes and torturing the citizens for their stuff and money.
 * 2) Most of the townspeople (even some newer characters who appeared after Buddy Double) were seen to have become total idiots than they usually were in the previous four segments since they don't know anything about dealing with criminals. Two great examples are:
 * 3) * First, when Nick the New Guy's TV and Leroy's footstool and armchair were stolen, they don't seem to have cared nor even noticed that their things being stolen, and when the Beavers noticed their hairdryer being stolen, they just stood there instead of just driving to get a replacement hairdryer from another shop.
 * 4) *And secondly, in the kitchen scene, Buddy told Muncie to look up at the ceiling instead of going far away from them where they won’t get easily caught, and while he and Darnell steal her tables and chairs from the Concho Bolo, they only ended up getting caught by Muncie, who actually managed to peek at them trying to steal a table from her restaurant.
 * 5) As a plus, most of the characters (Especially Buddy and Darnell, who became absolute morons in this episode) have also suffered from flanderization:
 * 6) * mh:greatcharacters:Buddy Thunderstruck himself was once a dim-witted, tough, mature, and likable country ace truck racer with a bit of intelligence who has some funny moments while having development around people. But this episode, however, portrays him to be much dumber and immature than he was in the previous four segments. He is almost Crash Bandicoot (Radical Entertainment) related in this episode, as he mostly gets himself in trouble and acts like he doesn't listen or care for the bad things that happened to the townspeople, Darnell or even himself despite what he said to the Greasepit residents in Buddy Double which proves that he's a huge hypocrite for treating other people who got their stuff from the Gold Brick Pawnshop like dirt which is against his character since while he's acting insanely stupid. At least he cared for some people. This continued in another two infamous episodes of the series, Stunt Fever (where he behaves like a literal man child over his rival’s stunts) and Cannonballistic.
 * 7) * Darnell Fetzervalve, who was once a mature, helpful, kind-hearted, and intelligent mechanic who is the voice-of-reason to Buddy, is somehow being portrayed as a perverted criminal who attempted to share Buddy's original persona after he became downgraded in this episode (though not as immature as what Buddy and the other Greasepit townspeople have become) but it's taken to another level to the point where he does very premature things like urinating on many things in front of women, which is really disgusting (Especially in the scene where he tried to urinate in the asparagus gelato in front of Muncie). He also has become an obvious Butt-Monkey type character than usual who gets easily tortured by Buddy who is supposed to be his best friend (which is later the same problem in later episodes such as Babysitters Yo and Health Nuts).
 * 8) * Big Tex is at his absolute worst in this episode and is one of the three earlier episodes that had his greediness went one step too far along with Buddy Double and Thunderstruck Rab Cab as he illegality hired two people (Buddy and Darnell) without any money to pay him just for them to become repo men and take people's items away despite some of them getting their stuff from other shops in the town of Greasepit so that Buddy and Darnell can get their own stuff back which is a choice that makes sense to be illegal in real life due to it involving no pay from the workers and it's illegal to steal things from people. And to top it all off, he never loses any debt from his pawnshop despite dealing with lawsuits or any fines for the trio's actions much like other times where he does illegal plans, almost making him getting off scot-free in this episode.
 * 9) ** In fact, his character could be easily compared to Mr. Krabs from the dark age of SpongeBob SquarePants as both are villainous money-obsessing business owners who hardly show any respect to their customers and employees (including the main protagonists, SpongeBob SquarePants and Buddy Thunderstruck), both which have done volatile workers' rights and has done illegal crimes with his employees and even those who aren’t employed, both which have been scammers who are constantly tricking people into having their stuff broken or stolen. They are both very unkind fathers to their only children (Pearl Krabs and Tex Arkana Jr.) and both are Karma Houdinis who barely get punished for their sinful actions, not only he’s the most hated character of the entire show, but also some characters like Muncie and Artichoke (despite being a temporary employee in the pawnshop) hate him because of his actions in this episode along with the aforementioned Buddy Double and Thunderstruck Rab Cab.
 * 10) * Muncie, while still having her original personality as a tough-as-nails, strict, yet sane and caring tomboyish restaurant owner who is secretly a racer as well as nowhere near flanderized as her cousin and Auntie Uncle in this episode, is somewhat a Know-It-All plot device who doesn't seem to deal with her depressed customers after their stuff being stolen, which is rather out-of-character of her compared to Beaver Dam Fast Pizza since she would normally solve people’s problems when in her restaurant. The way she throws Buddy and Darnell out of her restaurant for trying to steal a table though justified is just too mean spirited, even for a bossy yet caring person like Muncie since they were her long time costumers and the fact that the former is her cousin (though aren’t mentioned) as stated in the same episode she was introduced.
 * 11) * Artichoke (while still a short-tempered, yet strong and average biker) is sort of a violent psychopath who nearly got Buddy, Darnell, and Big Tex killed for stealing his motorcycle (which for some peculiar reason it was his grandmother's instead of his, as stated in Buddy Double and he maturely trades Buddy's money art for his motorcycle in the episode "Funny Money" unlike this episode) rather than taking them to the cops, thankfully he redeemed himself when he give Buddy his broken vegetable chopper 3000.
 * 12) ** Speaking of, Sheriff Cannonball and Deputy Hoisenberry, for some reason, don't appear in this episode at all which doesn't make any sense since Buddy, Darnell, and Big Tex are seen breaking a lot of illegal laws and they could've got them arrested for what they've done to the citizens of Greasepit, but instead of getting them to appear in this episode, Artichoke took over their roles as the cop which is a big miscast for this episode since he's supposed to be a biker and not a cop. This clearly shows how poorly written and nonsensical this episode's writing is.
 * 13) *Just like Pamela Isley in Scrambled Eggs, Robby Burgles has become a absolute joke of a gross out joke fodder-typed character whose only purposes are teaching Buddy and Darnell how to be repo men and going to the bathroom every time his stomach growls after eating super hot wings last night as opposed to the villainous and light hearted smooth trickster.
 * 14) * Some of the other Greasepit townspeople (with the expectation of Big Tex, Muncie Thunderstruck, Robby Burgles, and Artichoke) are either Butt-Monkeys or joke fodders who don’t even serve a purpose to the story as well, and are only there just for filler such as other characters like Mr. Weaselbrat, Auntie Uncle, Mama Possum and her Babies, Nick the New Guy, Leroy, and the Beavers.
 * 15) ** On top of that, Auntie Uncle has been flanderized since this episode. He went from being a dimwitted, yet well-meaning aunt to a braindead spoiled Mary Sue-typed party animal who only cares about losing Buddy's money to other people and even getting off scot-free for selling all of Buddy's and even her own furniture to Big Tex just to "keep the business going" which is something that could give the post-movie Patrick Star and Peter Griffin since season 8 a run for their money.
 * 16) The way the repo man job was portrayed is just nonsensical and generic because, in real life, the repo men have to give the owners a repossession slip before taking their items away if the owners don’t pay them back, but this, however, gives that job in a very illegal way, resulting in Buddy and Darnell immaturely and cruelty treating the townspeople to the point of committing many crimes, which is not only a very bad moral to begin with, but also illogical, even for Buddy Thunderstruck standards, especially when it comes to insulting the intelligence of repo men in real life by portraying it as an illegal job in a kids show, which proves that Stoopid Buddy Studioos and American Greetings Entertainment used the "It's made for kids" excuse to get away with the writing of this episode.
 * 17) * First, the "Fairy Tale" method has Buddy and Darnell telling a fairy tale about why they need their stuff and exchange the story for their stuff which is very stupid as repo men don't do fairy tales to other people in real life and is completely random since fairy tales are stories supposed to entertain people for all ages, not a method for repo men to do. This also encourages fraud, scamming, blackmail and false report.
 * 18) * Secondly, the "Predict the Future" method has Buddy and Darnell giving a threat to other people who got their stuff from the pawnshop by damaging their properties (breaking, urinating, and running through things with the Rabble Rouser) only just because of one thing that needs to be taken to the pawnshop which encourages vandalism, harassment, abuse, assault, destruction, and violation of citizen rights which could've got them arrested and given a fine for the damages they have caused.
 * 19) * Last but not least, the "Do Not Disturb" method has Buddy and Darnell breaking into other people's homes, distracting the owners, and stealing their stuff they bought. This also encouraged breaking and entering, stealing, robbing, burglary, and piracy which could've also got them arrested.
 * 20) ** In fact, despite seeing what Buddy and Darnell have done to their properties, literally almost none of the other townspeople aside from Muncie and Artichoke even punish or call Sheriff Cannonball on the two for their actions up to the point where they both get off scot-free. This is a side effect of their Buddy Double-styled stupidity in this episode (especially Mama Possum).
 * 21) Aside from the portrayal of repo men, this episode has logic that makes no sense, even for Buddy Thunderstruck standards, an example is when Auntie Uncle and Muncie somehow didn’t go deaf by the really loud air horns from Buddy’s garage and the air horn cans exploded when he threw them on the ground.
 * 22) Similar to mh:awfulmovies: Space Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back, Scrambled Eggs, the Great Divide, Roadside Attraction, and the majority of the third season of Turbo F.A.S.T, this episode heavily overuses unnecessary filler scenes that were only there just to pad out the running time of the episode, some great examples are:
 * 23) *The first few minutes where Buddy plans to get his and Auntie Uncle's stuff back, which the latter became overshadowed by the filler.
 * 24) *Robby Burgles teaching Buddy and Darnell how to be repo men which lasts for a whole minute.
 * 25) *The three Weaselbrat hot tub scenes (especially during the first one where Buddy, Darnell, and Mr. Weaselbrat hang out for the night).
 * 26) *The truck chase scene with Artichoke and Buddy, Darnell, and Big Tex laughing about a certain vegetable chopper.
 * 27) *The Concho Bolo scene in which Buddy and Darnell try to trick Muncie into having her restaurant’s tables and chairs taken to the pawnshop.
 * 28) *Various footages of Buddy and Darnell stealing stuff while Big Tex laughs.
 * 29) *Buddy and Darnell trashing Mama Possum's front yard.
 * 30) Immature humor which tries too hard to be funny to the point that some of them involved bathroom humor such as Robby Burgles' running gag of going to the bathroom every time his stomach growls (which may encourage vore) and the infamous scene where Darnell urinates in a birdbath in front of Mama Possum while he and Buddy were trashing her front yard which is clearly stupid and out-of-character of him since he's supposed to be one of the smartest characters in the show. In fact, it feels more like something Modern Peter Griffin would do. Lastly, Mama Possum's stupidity told them to take her birdbath which has Darnell’s urine in it instead of cleaning the urine off and calling Sheriff Cannonball to arrest them for vandalizing her front yard (another example of the townsfolk's stupidity), even the other three writers of the show would never agree to write that scene as Darnell managed to redeem himself after the Concho Bolo scene.
 * 31) *Not only that, it also shows the unzipped part of his jumpsuit pants which is thankfully censored by his ferret tail and sneaker when he tries to urinate in Muncie's asparagus gelato, but thankfully she shoves him off the bar counter before he does that.
 * 32) *Apart from the urination scene, there are also infamous scenes in the episode such as Big Tex laughing evilly in the sky while the screen turns red and creepily staring at the viewer with red eyes while the screen fades to black.
 * 33) Nonsensical, lackluster, bizarre, and inconsistent writing which makes the episode feel like an episode with a plot that belongs more fittingly for an episode of seasons 6 to 8 of SpongeBob SquarePants or the third season of Turbo F.A.S.T rather than Buddy Thunderstruck which is well-written and has the charm and cleverness it had. Not surprisingly enough is that this episode was actually written by one of the co-creators, writers, and executive producers of mh:besttvshows: Dan Vs., Chris Pearson, who has done far superior writing in various episodes of that show (especially his solo written ones) which was written 6 years prior before he went to Stoopid Buddy Studioos to write this episode.
 * 34) * On top of that, his writing talent has been downgraded from being clever, smooth, and excellent to mildly nonsensical, idiotic, and outright hideous unlike various episodes he wrote for Dan Vs. as it contains some innocent characters and later mindless idiots which are being unfairly treated when they're forced to give their stuff away right after they vandalized some of their stuff or not keeping an eye on their stuff. Heck, even this episode had some plot holes that should've happened:
 * 35) ** Why couldn't Buddy just go and ask one of his other friends besides Darnell in Greasepit (like his cousin Muncie, Mr. Weaselbrat, Leroy, Handsome Joe, the Beavers (who stole all his prize money in the first place), or even Really Old Lady who runs the bank) to lend him money if he needs money to get his stuff back from Big Tex?
 * 36) ** Why didn’t Buddy use his nitro booster to escape from Artichoke immediately? (This is excusable since Artichoke's motorcycle was at the back of his truck, unable to let out the Rabble Rouser's nitro boost)
 * 37) **Who even wanted to steal tables and chairs from a public restaurant just so that they can be taken to a pawn shop?
 * 38) ** Buddy broke all his bones like an immature idiot for jumping in Mr. Weaselbrat's hot tub without any water despite him landing on the grass after falling out of the Rabble Rouser without even breaking his bones earlier.
 * 39) ** In Buddy Double, Big Tex is shown to have a hatred towards Buddy for winning lots of weekly truck races, but this episode, however, shows Big Tex hiring him and making a deal with the same guy he hates at the truck races.
 * 40) ** Buddy thinks that the "Do Not Disturb" Method would work to steal Artichoke's chopper even though they don't even know where it is and mistook Artichoke's motorcycle for a chopper, also, why couldn't they use the "Predict the Future" Method so it might be easier to know where the chopper is hiding?
 * 41) ** Shouldn’t Big Tex get his other “employees” like Jacko Valtrades to do the repo man job for him since Robby has stomach problems (despite the fact that he was arrested in the episode's prequel, Buddy Double).
 * 42) ** How didn't Cannonball nor Hoisenberry see Buddy and Darnell stealing town properties even though they don't appear at all (as mentioned earlier)?
 * 43) **How did Muncie even know about Big Tex’s true colours as a criminal after she got her tables and chairs from the pawnshop before the events of this episode?
 * 44) It was somehow written as a sequel to Buddy Double possibly due to the first few minutes being set after the events of that episode instead of Robo-Truck of the Future and that events from Beaver Dam Fast Pizza (such as the Beavers being employed at the Concho Bolo) weren't mentioned entirely which is very late and confusing since Get the Hock Out was released four segments after Buddy Double and yet Muncie and the Beavers appeared in this episode though this was supposed to be set before their debut episode, Beaver Dam Fast Pizza. Not only that, since Buddy Double has a good ending where Jacko Valtrades got arrested, Buddy had his name cleared and everyone starting to love him again.
 * 45) It completely contradicts the events of Beaver Dam Fast Pizza and To Project and Swerve since the events of the two was ignored in this episode thus making it more of a filler episode rather than a continuation of the story just like Stunt Fever (another bad episode of the series).
 * 46) * In Beaver Dam Fast Pizza, The Beavers were hired at the Concho Bolo after Buddy told their customers that their pizzas are made from wood, but this episode, despite appearing in the Concho Bolo scene during Auntie Uncle’s flashback, isn’t shown to be working there and Muncie was the only cook at the restaurant as usual.
 * 47) * In Project and Swerve, Buddy told Cannonball that he has a new respect for law and order and he'll try his best to abide by it though he went to his immature criminal personality in this episode.
 * 48) Somewhat rushed production values, even by Stoopid Buddy Studioos standards, as you can clearly see the episode's production was a bit rushed, resulting in very mediocre scene editing (apart from being lazily written):
 * 49) * A good portion of scenes (especially after Buddy and Darnell leave Mr. Weaselbrat's front yard and the repo men scenes) cut to another scene without transition effects to go through the two scenes.
 * 50) * The scene where the Rabble Rouser drives back and forth is lazily reused eight times only with the extra stuff added to the back of the truck during the scenes with Buddy and Darnell stealing stuff and bringing them to the pawnshop.
 * 51) * Buddy, Darnell, and Mr. Weaselbrat are seen wearing the same exact clothes including their shoes to bed and even in the hot tub without even changing them when they could cause damage to clothing in real life. Even Darnell pointed that out and said "Why aren't we wearing swimsuits?". Buddy shows that he's still wearing his race suit and said "What? Are we made of money?", when the entire show had the same problem with the lack of change of clothes since the animators either made most of the characters being puppets with their clothes sewed together to their bodies or they were just low on budget and too lazy to design their swimsuits and other alternative clothing for the characters.
 * 52) ** Even certain stop motion media featuring animals like 2009’s Fantastic Mr. Fox has some alternative outfits for its animal characters while they’re puppets even if that movie took 5 years to make when compared to this show where the animal characters only wore one outfit despite the show taking two years to make.
 * 53) * Not only that, but there are also easily noticeable errors in the stop-motion animation such as:
 * 54) ** During the outside view of Buddy and Darnell's garage, Buddy and Darnell are still in the Rabble Rouser behind it even though they're inside the garage.
 * 55) **During the scene where Big Tex was with Buddy and Darnell at the pawnshop, Big Tex's eyebrows have changed from his regular eyebrows to the same eyebrows as Tex Jr and Artichoke’s to just being separated.
 * 56) ** The gold badge on Big Tex's tie appeared to have no blue gem on it, though it appears afterward.
 * 57) ** Buddy and Darnell’s character models have been a bit off and looking like their later appearances in the repo men school scene.
 * 58) ** The scene where Artichoke chases the Rabble Rouser where the shading of the Rabble Rouser and Artichoke usually is are somewhat dark compared to the background in that scene.
 * 59) Very rushed ending: Big Tex told Buddy and Darnell to steal a broken vegetable chopper from Artichoke instead of his motorcycle, thus giving it back to him, following with a filler scene about Buddy, Darnell, and Big Tex laughing about a certain vegetable chopper, only for Buddy to deal with Big Tex that he and Darnell would get everyone's stuff back even though they only gave Artichoke and Mr. Weaselbrat's stuff back and never even bothered to show them giving back the other characters' belongings that they stole and apologized for it and randomly ended with another hot tub scene with Buddy immaturely doing a cannonball in Mr. Weaselbrat's hot tub without any water and breaks his bones, and it ends right there without any continuation which felt like a very pointless filler scene that looks like something belonging to a post-movie SpongeBob SquarePants episode.
 * 60) Buddy is supposed to get his and Auntie Uncle's stuff back as seen in the beginning, but due to the repo man goal and the filler overshadowing that goal to the point that it was never brought up nor mentioned after the first three minutes of the episode, it makes the entire scene pointless and feel like the scene was only in this episode just to give Buddy and Darnell a reason to go to the Gold Brick Pawnshop to become repo men.
 * 61) On top of that, the repo man goal could've easily avoided if Buddy and Darnell ask other people like Muncie or Mr. Weaselbrat to give them money to get their stuff back, overall making the events of the episode pointless.
 * 62) While the voice acting was good most of the time, some of the dialogue, while witty, can be very laughable due to the poor writing, especially the infamous "I'm here for your internal organs" and "You're all deader than disco" lines from Artichoke. This is probably because Chris Pearson worked on Dan Vs. way before this episode was even written.
 * 63) * Big Tex's evil laugh sounds very annoying and cringe-worthy that it felt like his voice actor (Harry Caskin) got very close to the microphone.
 * 64) The episode had ruined the reputation of writer, Chris Pearson since this was his last written episode for an series, but it was also the last project Chris Pearson has ever written for nearly 5 years until 2022 where he was confirmed to be involved as a writer in the upcoming thriller, A Violent Intent, and the podcast series, Sam Archer.
 * 65) Its plot is rather nonsensical and weak to the series as a whole, being one of the four episodes in the series that served as filler which never usually happens compared to most episodes which barely have any impact on the series overall just like Thunderstruck Rab Cab (while part of the Moneybags arc), Stunt Fever, and Cannonballistic, (even for a non-Belvedere Moneybags arc episode), the only events this episode has impact on is the interaction between Buddy and Big Tex and Muncie’s hatred towards the Arkanas, but even so, it can still be skipped. You can watch the show (even the former two episodes that are filler), skip this episode, and anything too important would not be missed.
 * 66) Despite turning against Big Tex over his plan, Buddy and Darnell somehow don't give up being repo men, meaning they still had to work with Big Tex (which later episodes such as Thunderstruck Rab Cab retcons this) despite the fact that in To Protect and Swerve where they gave up being cops after Buddy takes his job way too far. In this case, how come they didn't give up on being repo men after it was negatively portrayed in this episode?
 * 67) The tone of this episode, while still keeping the show’s original light/dark tone unlike Scrambled Eggs from DC Super Hero Girls, is incredibly jarring for a Buddy Thunderstruck episode that is part of Season 1, as that the series is known for having a balanced tone of action and comedy. However, this episode has a very campy tone that's really jarring, as it is a generic criminal episode with little to no racing scenes, this can be very out-of-place in an racing cartoon show like this one for example.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Muncie (despite being a plot device to Buddy and Darnell), Mr. Weaselbrat, Mama Possum's babies, and The Beavers (despite them having no purpose in the story) were at least the only likeable characters that aren’t flanderized nor derailed in this episode.
 * 2) * Speaking of Muncie, she does have a fair point about Big Tex being greedy and made bad deals towards people who got their stuff from his pawnshop and is one of the few characters (alongside the other characters who are absent in this episode) who doesn’t become a total idiot about her stuff being stolen.
 * 3) Artichoke and Muncie are the only characters who actually punish Buddy and Darnell for stealing despite nearly none of them doing so such as Nick the New Guy, Mama Possum, and Leroy.
 * 4) Despite the ending being rushed, nearly everyone (though only Artichoke and Mr. Weaselbrat's stuff back were shown) got their stuff back.
 * 5) The idea of the main characters becoming repo men just so that they can get their stuff back in a Dan Vs.-styled episode of the series would've sounded interesting, especially if it doesn't include the flaws that this episode has.
 * 6) The stop-motion animation and rock background music are still great and some of the voice acting is alright besides the questionable lines and Big Tex's evil laugh.
 * 7) A few funny scenes such as the beginning where Buddy and Darnell were yelling when they went into their garage and Darnell telling a fairytale to Mr. Weaselbrat with puppets.
 * 8) * Apart from being laughable, the dialogue is still witty as the previous episodes, especially "Darnell? Is this some kind of mental telepathy thing? Cool! Hey, what number am I thinking?", "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BRING ME THAT HOT TUB", and "No, I mean repossess. Repo, man".
 * 9) The episode was non-canon to the Thomas Krajewski era and the entire show, because the events of the episode were never seen or mentioned apart from Buddy and Big Tex’s interaction. For example, Buddy and Darnell's stuff (including their furniture and stuff from their bedroom) reappears in future episodes, implying that he eventually got them back.
 * 10) At least this, along with Buddy Double, Stunt Fever, and Cannonballistic didn't cause the show to go downhill.
 * 11) Funny Money (which this episode came out two segments after this episode) is this episode done right, as the characters are less flanderized (most notably Buddy who was less of an idiot throughout the episode), has a more interesting plot about Buddy trading his art for other people's things instead of stealing them, Sheriff Cannonball arresting Buddy for his "actions" (though he freed him later after Moneybags' talk with Cannonball) and Buddy's character development with Muncie being brought back for inviting everyone to help Muncie after he realized that nobody came to her art show.
 * 12) With Buddy and Darnell's garage debuted in Robo-Truck of the Future, this marks the first time it shows their bedroom on the second floor of their garage.
 * 13) *It's also the first appearance of Leroy and Mama Possum's houses, Artichoke's tent, and the inside of Nick's house.

Trivia

 * This is the first episode to be written by someone other than Thomas Krajewski as it was instead written by Chris Pearson, who is best known for being the co-creator, writer, and co-executive producer of the Hub cartoon series, Dan Vs., the second is its sister episode, Thunderstruck Rab Cab where it was written by Drawn Together crew member and writer of numerous SpongeBob books and comics, David Lewman, and Mayor May Not where it was written by The Last Kids on Earth writer, Jennifer Muro. However, Thomas remained as the story editor for these three episodes.
 * This was also Pearson's first cartoon episode that he wrote 4 years after the cancellation of his show "Dan Vs." since he worked on a live-action project, "Back to the Further" during that time.
 * The fast-forward hot tub scene is a reference to the intro of mh:besttvshows: King of the Hill.

94th Academy Awards
'A quick note here: Please do not attack the winners and the people who participated in. We know this so-called "ceremony" is bad, but still. Do not attack the crew, the hosts and the people who got invited. This only makes the whole situation worse.'

""Now this is the story all about how Will Smith's life got flipped-turned upside-down

And we'll like to take a moment

Just sit right there

We'll tell you how his slap caused him to ruin his career""

- Said some people. "You're dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway."

— 'Walt Disney himself. Yes, really.' "Moonfall? More like Poonfall, because Amy Schumer is talking about her vagina again."

"Sex in the City? More like 'Amy, stop having Sex with the Whole City. We're tired of seeing you on stage."

"He-Man? More like 'Help me, man; I just had to listen to Amy Schumer tell another fucking joke and now I need medical assistance."

- Charles White Jr.'s (penguinz0) jokes poking fun of Amy's godawful attempt at "victimizing" herself. The 94th Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honoured the best films released between March 1 and December 31, 2021, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 27, 2022. The ceremony was hosted by Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes. It was the first ceremony since the 83rd Academy Awards in 2011 to feature multiple hosts.

Why It Wins the Oscar for the Worst Academy Awards Ever

 * 1) While the return of the hosts is welcome, and while Wanda Sykes and to an extent Regina Hall do a decent job, Amy Schumer does a horrendous job, since a lot of her material isn't funny:
 * 2) *The most notorious case being when she rudely labeled Kirsten Dunst a "seat filler"; keep in mind that she was actually nominated for Best Supporting Actress for The Power of the Dog that night. Even her spouse Jesse Plemons (who was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor alongside Dunst) wasn't pleased by the joke.
 * 3) **Even the seat filler joke was done before at the Oscars when Neil Patrick Harris made the same joke regarding Steve Carell.
 * 4) *There were reports that claimed she stole some of her material, such as the joke about Leonardo DiCaprio being taken straight from Twitter user Nicole Conlan practically verbatim. This wasn't the only time Schumer has done this......
 * 5) *She even had a planned joke about  the Rust incident in which Halyana Hutchins was murdered, and Joel Souza was injured by Alec Baldwin.  Thankfully, the Academy wouldn't let her say the joke, but it's still absolutely disgusting since it's not only insipid since Alec already had his murder charges  revoked , due to the real cause being incompetent on-set weapon handlers, who didn't know the difference between a fake revolver and a real one, but it's also extremely disrespectful toward Hutchins' death and her grieving family. Making fun of a tragedy is NEVER a good idea.
 * 6) **It also shows that Amy clearly didn't learn her lesson when she  mocked Ryan Dunn's death in front of his friend Steve-O .
 * 7) *Speaking of Hutchins, Amy hypocritically claimed that "she was traumatized" by the Will Smith-Chris Rock incident, but later admitted she was going to mock Joe Rogan for saying the N-word, and also James Franco for his alleged sexual misconduct. Even Charles White Jr. (penguinz0) scolded her for this, and later made jokes poking fun of her that were surprisingly funnier than her "actual humor".
 * 8) Unfitting Presenters Choices: A lot of the presenters like Shawn Mendes, Jacob Elordi, Sean Combs, DJ Khaled, Shaun White and Tony Hawk don't have really have a presence on the film industry as to be on the Oscars. You would expect them to be presenting on the Grammys, the MTV VMA awards, or the Kids/Teen Choice Awards, but here?
 * 9) The "Oscars Fan Favourite" and "Cheer Moment" subcategories were clearly made to give Spider-Man: No Way Home consolation prizes; however, the votes were hijacked and rigged by Zack Snyder's toxic fans, which could explain why Army of the Dead and a scene from the Snyder Cut (which starred nothing but Ezra "Criminal  Miller) won in the final poll. Also, given Ezra's crimes, he did NOT deserve to win the "Cheer Moment". That's like giving Brett Ratner an Oscars Award for Best Directing after his infamous sexual harassment allegations (one of which was following a woman into the ladies' restroom without her consent)'' in 2017 and having Jeffrey Jones win Best Actor after his 2003 arrest for soliciting nudes of an underage boy.
 * 10) *The people who voted also got the infamous Cinderella into the 2nd place of the "Oscars Fan Favourite", despite that movie receiving mixed-to-negative reviews.
 * 11) *The fact that not even the Academy could've prevented something like this to happen makes them look pathetic.
 * 12) The "In Memoriam" section not only left out significant actors like Bob Saget and Ed Asner, but it was presented far too upbeat and can easily come across as somewhat disrespectful.
 * 13) The infamous performance of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" which was problematic for various reasons:
 * 14) *The number feels like it feels like was clearly made to be the opener of the show but placing it in the middle makes it feel out of place. Especially when you consider that it wasn't even one of the Best Original Song nominees.
 * 15) *They had the nerve to cut most of the song in favor of an overly long rap verse by Megan Thee Stallion about how "great" the Oscars are, making it all the more pointless. If they were going to change the majority of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" in favor of an Oscars rap, why did they even have to perform the song at all?
 * 16) *Many Colombian people, as well as fans of the movie, consider it unfair that the original Colombian cast didn't got their time to shine singing; and yet, they brought singers like Becky G and Luis Fonsi who had no business being there, since they weren't part of the original movie and are not even of Colombian descent. It's very disrespectful not only to the fans of Encanto, but to the voice cast as well.
 * 17) **This performance proves the academy doesn't even understand why "We Don't Talk About Bruno" became a hit in the first place.
 * 18) **It was the Encanto cast who deserved their moment to shine. They were the ones who got the song to number one not these other celebrities.
 * 19) There was a blatant disregard for the medium of animation when presenters Halle Bailey, Lily James and Naomi Scott (and even Amy Schumer) called it "a genre kids enjoy and adults endure" before announcing the Best Animated Feature nominees (keep in mind that most of the nominees expect for Flee and the Mitchells vs the Machines, are from Disney) which is not only insulting to animation fans, but also to the animators that created the films that were previously nominated for Best Animated Feature (and as well to the people who passed away during the making of these films AND after they were completed), not just the nominees in this ceremony as they were practically thrown under the bus and being labelled as the creators of kiddie fodder. Even Phil Lord and Christopher Miller called the Academy out for this. Furthermore, the second quote from Walt Disney perfectly summarizes this whole outrage.
 * 20) *The statement doesn't even make sense when you factor in the notion that the film Flee, which is a horrific story about a refugee evacuating his country in an event that traumatized him and his family, got nominated for not just Best Animated Feature, but also Best Documentary Feature and International Feature, and it’s also PG-13. This is also the same case for the critically acclaimed Grave of the Fireflies, which talks about an extremely graphic and devastating story about 2 siblings struggling to survive during WWII, and despite not being rated or nominated, it also counts due to the shocking nature of the movie. Waltz with Bashir is another big example.
 * 21) *Speaking of Flee being nominated, what’s hypocritical is that the Oscars has also nominated movies like Triplets of Belleville, Isle of Dogs, Persepolis, My Life as a Zucchini, The Breadwinner, The Wind Rises, and Loving Vincent for Best Animated Feature which are all rated PG-13.
 * 22) **Despite being unrated, Chico and Rita and I Lost My Body also count as they are also adult animated films. Heck, even Anomalisa was rated R, which is much higher than both the PG and PG-13 animated films that were already mentioned.
 * 23) *Not only that, but they also have nominated adult animated films outside of the Best Animated Feature category such as Waltz with Bashir for Best International Film at the 81st Academy Awards which was also rated R just like Anomalisa, and especially "Blame Canada" for Best Original Song at the 72nd Academy Awards, which came from the South Park movie which is based on an adult cartoon, and Robin Williams sang it live! Very hypocritical Academy.
 * 24) *Heck, even the ones that are rated G have their own dark and sad moments for the adults as well, examples are the furnace scene in Toy Story 3, the dead rats in Ratatouille, Wallace's were-rabbit transformation scene in Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Coral's death in Finding Nemo, the Benny jumpscares in Toy Story 4, and the scenes in which WALL-E gets electrocuted and crushed by AUTO in WALL-E, and yet, those films also won Best Animated Feature Film. Totally just for the kids only? Right...
 * 25) **The same can apply to the nominees as well consisting of Dr. Facilier's characterization due to being a voodoo witch doctor in The Princess and the Frog, the Scream Extractor from Monsters Inc, Mufasa’s death in The Lion King (1994), Clayton's death in Tarzan (1999), The King's car crash in Cars, and the Kill the Beast scene from Beauty and the Beast (1991).
 * 26) **Heck, there is a reason why some family-friendly animated movies are rated PG due to being able to tackle some serious concepts in some way like the Cave Painting scene from Ice Age, Lilo's parents getting killed in a car accident from Lilo and Stitch, Corpse Bride, Coraline, ParaNorman, Frankenweenie, and Monster House being dark horror films, Ellie having a miscarriage in Up, Po's flashback in Kung Fu Panda 2, the How to Train your Dragon Trilogy and Fantastic Mr. Fox having their tones more dark and mature when compared to the books they were based on, Riley dealing with her emotions in Inside Out, The Screenslaver from The Incredibles 2, Zootopia talking a bit about corruption in politics, Hector's death when he was human in Coco, Kingpin killing Peter Parker (the Peter from Mile's universe, not to be confused with Peter B. Parker) and then Aaron in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Soul talking about the meaning of life, Tadashi's death in Big Hero 6, the scene in which Mr. Incredible finds out that Syndrome wiped out almost the entire superhero race in The Incredibles, etc. In fact, the entire premise of Encanto revolves around family trauma and conflict.
 * 27) *Furthermore, this clearly also shows that the Oscars have a long history of treating animated films horribly, especially since how they barely give animated films (even the PG-13 and R-rated animated movies) a chance to be nominated for and win Best Picture most of the time, and later shoved them into their own Best Animated Feature category starting in the 2002 ceremony just because they’re “made only for kids” and so that live action films will continue to win BP; yet, they let Beauty and the Beast (1991), Up, and Toy Story 3 be the only animated films to be nominated for Best Picture, and even they don’t treat animated short films being made only for kids despite being the same thing as animated films which are horribly treated by the Academy, which is yet another example of hypocrisy the Oscars really are when it comes to animated films.
 * 28) *Overall this made Encanto winning for Best-Animated Feature Film awkward and unearned, because the presenters just so happens to be the live-action versions of their respective Disney princesses (Cinderella, Ariel, and Jasmine); not to mention that the award could have been awarded to either Flee due to being PG-13 compared to the rest of the nominees or The Mitchells vs The Machines due to being a film that pushed boundaries to animation even though it's still a family-friendly movie (although Lord and Miller envisioned that to be for "all ages"). Sure, Encanto is a good film no doubt but that speech nearly ruined it. Not helping the fact that Amy Schumer did say something along the lines of "Oh I only saw Encanto a lot because I have kids.
 * 29) * That description of animation being for kids only is so infamous that some people are even blaming the ceremony and that statement for giving Netflix and Warner Bros Discovery the idea to cancel many of their animated shows, including upcoming ones and pulling them from their streaming services.
 * 30) The uncomfortable skit in which Regina Hall called up a bunch of actors to do "PCR tests", instead implying she was going to stick her finger in their mouths and even patting the actors down to their "bathing suit areas", which is considered  sexual harassment .
 * 31) The Academy didn't even  invite Rachel Zegler into the ceremony , despite the fact she was the main star in the Best Picture-nominated remake of West Side Story. Luckily, people made a big fuss about it to the Academy, and they later gave her the invitation. She would later joke about it in front of the other attendees as well.
 * 32) In order to cut time and have the show be under three hours, they decided to present eight categories before the broadcast, which ended up backfiring immensely, since not only did this create a massive controversy, but the show ended up being longer than the last show, clocking in at 3 hours and 40 minutes.
 * 33) *This was also seen as grossly disrespectful to both the nominees in those categories and people who work in those particular fields. Even prominent figures like Steven Spielberg, James Cameron, Guillermo del Toro, and John Williams criticized this decision.
 * 34) *As pointed out by Schaffrillas Productions, they literally removed the "Best Editing" category out of their ceremony, which makes no sense, since editing is "what makes a film an actual film".
 * 35) *Further extending on #6, they also removed the Award for Best Animated Short Film from their roster, which makes the disgusting statement even more hypocritical and insulting, since most of the nominees in that category (except for the Netflix short, Robin Robin) were (you guessed it) mostly adult-oriented, further emphasizing the Oscars' godawful bias towards animation.
 * 36) *It ultimately shows that the Academy learned nothing from their 2019 controversy in which they intended to present awards during the commercials.
 * 37) They blatantly included a Lightyear commercial with Chris Evans in the middle of the ceremony, which is wrong since awards shows are supposed to be neutral and not promote particular movies from a particular brand and/or company. This gets worse when you realize that ABC, the network that broadcasts the Academy Awards, is owned by Disney.
 * 38) *It doesn't help the fact that the movie ended up receiving mixed reviews from audiences.
 * 39) This ceremony also happened to be sponsored by Crypto.com, a company known for cryptocurrency, which is extremely harmful to the environment. Schaffrillas himself expressed disbelief over this.
 * 40) The show feels like a 3 and a 1/2-hour long Disney circle-jerking due to ABC broadcasting the show; not just because of the Lightyear commercial, but also how Best Costume Design and Best Animated Feature were kept in while other categories were cut just so that Cruella and Encantos wins were shown, and Jenny Beavan could gush about how great the earlier was. Wow, that's very subtle Academy.'
 * 41) And of course, we can't talk about the 2022 ceremony without bringing up one of, if not, the most infamous yet also shocking and terrible moment: When presenter Chris Rock joked about Jada Pinkett-Smith's alopecia, Will Smith, in a fit of rage, stormed on stage and slapped Rock across the face, to then yell "Keep my wife's name out your F*CKIN' MOUTH!!" Not only were both Smith and Rock morally in the wrong, but it made the moment where Smith won for Best Actor all the more awkwardness . Speaking of which, it's very hypocritical for Will to be angry at Chris for mocking his wife's baldness, because if you look closely at him after Chris made that joke, he was laughing at it.
 * 42) *To make things worse, the incident also ruined his career as not only did this cause Will Smith to get banned from the Oscars for a decade, but it led to his upcoming films being cancelled.
 * 43) *It also ruined the victory moment for Summer of Soul winning Best Documentary Feature.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) There were some well-deserved wins, such as:
 * 2) *CODA's wins for Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay.
 * 3) *Hans Zimmer's win for Best Original Score (Dune).
 * 4) *Jessica Chastain's win for Best Actress.
 * 5) *Ariana DeBose's win for Best Supporting Actress, making her the first openly queer actress of colour to win in any acting category.
 * 6) *Troy Kotsur's win for Best Supporting Actor
 * 7) *No Time to Die's win for Best Original Song.
 * 8) During his acceptance speech, Will Smith at least apologizes for his crass behaviour. He later gave a full apology to Chris Rock on his Instagram and resigned from the Academy because of his actions.
 * 9) Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall (to an extent) were fun co-hosts, and Sykes had some of the better skits of the night, particularly when she toured the Academy Museum.
 * 10) We got to see the iconic "Matrix" scene in which Neo (Keanu Reeves' character) dodges the bullets, which was nominated for the 5th place in the "Cheer Moment", so that's something great to say the least.
 * 11) The segments during the "In Memoriam" section in which certain actors like Bill Murray and Jamie Lee Curtis gave speeches regarding a certain loss was quite nice.
 * 12) The performances of "Be Alive", "No Time to Die" and "Dos Oruguitas" were brilliant.
 * 13) Francis Ford Coppola, Al Pacino, and Robert De Niro coming out on stage to celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Godfather was pretty great.
 * 14) The ceremony returned to the Dolby Theater after the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony did not take place there due to the COVID 19 pandemic.
 * 15) Alberto Mielgo's acceptance speech for his short, "The Windshield Wiper", in which he explains how animation "is cinema", and "a fad for adults", is extremely brilliant and powerful, and is a massive stand-out against the horrible, biased speech by the 3 live-action Disney princesses.

Trivia

 * The scene where Will Smith slap Chris Rock for joking his wife's name has ironically spawned into a massive internet meme. In fact, it actually convinced  Dhar Mann  of all people to make a video about the incident.
 * According to Schumer herself, she received death threats for her seat filler joke on Kristen Dunst, and  it got so bad that the Secret Service was involved .
