      The fake diarrhea used most of the times in the series is a combination of chunky peanut butter and chocolate syrup.

      If you look at the Rolling Rock bottle in some episodes, you can clearly see that beer is not in the bottle, but instead water as the liquid in the bottle isn't dark enough to be the beer.

      The Angry Nintendo Nerd: What were they thinking?

    • Alternate versions
      While fair use permits the use of movie music and clips for the online videos, profits generated by the DVD sales have led to James Rolfe removing movie clips used for comedic effect from his reviews to avoid any potential legal repercussions. As such, most reviews of video games based on movies have removed footage and music from those movies (including Rocky, Back to the Future, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street).

    Gaming and Movie Pop Culture and Humor= Pure Entertainment
    For those who surfed the internet, then there's no doubt you've heard of the Angry Video Game Nerd.

    James Rolfe combines classic Video Game pop culture and an outrageous sense of humor to create one of the funniest internet shows ever created. It's just always fun to see The Nerd destroy and rip apart the games he plays.

    Of course my favorite parts of the show are when special guests appear and The Nerd always takes them on.

    Now there's way too many good episodes to choose as a favorite. But I can only say this: Out of all the knockoffs that many have become after The AVGN, none will be as best as the original.
