Trivia
This film became the subject of much controversy during March/April 2018 when it was revealed that many of the cast members and producers for Channel Awesome were treated poorly by management and were unpaid for their work in this production, and the previous two Channel Awesome anniversary specials. This film was highlighted as a major factor during the #changethechannel Twitter and YouTube movement, where many of the producers/actors aired their grievances with Channel Awesome's management, six years after the film's release. These grievances were also leveled at Doug Walker. Many actors swore off working with Walker ever again after this production. As of April 2018, Brad Jones and Larry Bundy Jr. are the only producers aside from the Walkers still working with Channel Awesome. Ironically, Bundy said that "no one ever actually believed I was ever on TGWTG. I never was included in fan art, I was never asked to be in a crossover, I was never asked to be in any anniversary movies."

It...had its moments?

Well, this is the longest narrative film on the entire Internet (not including movies) that I've ever seen and it worked a lot better when I saw it in eight separate parts. This was the fourth anniversary of Channel Awesome (third and last feature film altogether) and it features the cast going into space to find out what happened to Ma-Ti and dealing with the literal plot hole he got into. When I rewatched this movie all at once, it was indeed too long. What everyone remembers is how poorly the cast was treated in this film, but it wasn't until six years later that everyone confessed that they went through Hell working on it and all left the website. The worst part was how Justin Carmichael (Jew Wario) was accused of sexual assault and some people working on it covered up evidence. I don't know if Doug Walker personally covered up the abuse, but no doubt people were mad at him.

I actually think this has the most funny moments of any movie ever on TVTropes and it was great to see them be added. On YouTube however, this became one of the most disliked projects Channel Awesome ever made. Luckily, we all agreed it was at least better than the Critic's review of "The Wall". Make whatever joke you want, with how the elephant in the room should have appeared. If this counts as a movie, it's the longest one the Nostalgia Critic reviewed. I would recommend seeing this in separate parts, not all at once.

It's still nice to see all these talented people together in one place, even if none of them enjoyed it. Guru Larry wasn't in this, so that might be why he chose to remain on Channel Awesome. Well, that and spite. The characters do get to play roles and they know to play off of each other, even if the chemistry could be better. I'd recommend seeing all the Critic's commercial specials together at once over this. They knew this could never be surpassed and they sure as Hell didn't want it to. **1/2
