Quotes 

• Movie Store Employee : [as the Critic enters the store]  Welcome to Fam Video. We don't know how we're still around either.

  [Critic stares at the employee's nametag, which reads "Freddy"] 

  Movie Store Employee : Oh, returning a movie? How was it?

  Nostalgia Critic : What business is it of yours how the movie was... Freddo?

  Movie Store Employee : I didn't mean nothing by it.

  Nostalgia Critic : [mockingly]  "Didn't mean noth..."

  Movie Store Employee : Will there be something else?

  Nostalgia Critic : I don't know, will there?

  Movie Store Employee : Is there something wrong?

  Nostalgia Critic : Is that what you're asking me? Something's wrong? What if I saw a comedy so bad it changes your perception of bad altogether... You think you've seen every type of shitty humor, gross-out humor, anti-humor... Epic Movie. But then one comes along that is not only bad on purpose, but it elevates bad to a new level you didn't even know existed. A level that embraces misery to a point that you have to laugh. So, I guess it's working, 'cause it makes you laugh. But it only makes you laugh because the only other alternative is to cry. You laugh... because you have no choice. You laugh... because it's destroying you.

  Movie Store Employee : What kind of film could do that?

  Nostalgia Critic : [putting DVD face-down on the counter]  Call it.

  Movie Store Employee : Call what?

  Nostalgia Critic : Just call it.

  Movie Store Employee : You want me to call what the movie is?

  Nostalgia Critic : Think of the only film that can be impressively bad, yet leaves no joy. Can get a laugh, even though it's not funny. Can expand someone to a new level of awful he wants to escape, yet is constantly drawn in by. What type of bad creates a world so painful that you stay in it, because it's so fascinating?

  Movie Store Employee : Oh, that's "Freddy Got Fingered".

  Nostalgia Critic : [turning up disc]  Well done.

  Movie Store Employee : Okay, then, I'll just put this back on the shelf.

  Nostalgia Critic : Oh, don't put it on the shelf.

  Movie Store Employee : Where am I supposed to put it?

  Nostalgia Critic : Anywhere, but not on the shelf. Or else it gets mixed in with the others and just becomes another movie. Which it is.
