History Recap / TheNostalgiaCriticS9E6

* WTHCastingAgency: {{Invoked|Trope}} on two occasions.
** The Critic and Tim all [[HaHaHaNo laugh hysterically at the idea of]] Creator/GerardButler portraying the Phantom, since he never sang in a movie before. They even claim that he only got his role after Schumacher saw him in the critically-panned ''Film/Dracula2000''. They then jokingly say that [[SarcasmMode thankfully he was never grossly miscast again]] (while a poster of ''Film/GodsOfEgypt'', where he played a North African god despite [[RaceLift being very white]] and [[OohMeAccentsSlipping not doing a good job of hiding his Scottish accent]] is shown onscreen).
** Same with Creator/MinnieDriver who Tim points out is actually a pretty good singer, but because she was cast as [[ThePrimaDonna Carlotta]], she had another singer dub over her.

* ClipShow: Inverted two-fold. Not only is this review a clipless one, but even if it weren't, the songs had to be changed anyways.

* HamToHamCombat: Both of Doug's Phantoms try showing each other up with their singing styles and pointing out the other's hilarious flaws.

** The Fandumb claims that ''Theatre/LoveNeverDies'' is a SelfInsertFic with Raoul's creepiness downgraded, while the Critic compares it to a fanfic Hyper Fangirl would write. Towards the end, the Critic and Beth talk about how bad the sequel was compared to the original.

** The Critic and Tim all [[HaHaHaNo laugh at the idea of]] Creator/GerardButler portraying the Phantom, since he never sang in a movie before. In fact, this is their overall attitude towards giving the main singing role to non-singing actors.

* TakeThat: To ''Theatre/LoveNeverDies'', with the Fandumb saying that it's a self-inserted fan fiction with Raoul downgraded and him made better by comparison. Critic calls it like a fanfic Hyper would write.

* BigShutUp: The Fandumb tells his horse when it wants "[[BigWordShout FOOD!]]"
** The Critic also does this via ''text message'' when he gets annoyed with everyone doing the talking musical number in which everything gets messed up.

* GenreSavvy: Probably as a CallBack to [[Recap/TheNostalgiaCriticS1E15 his review]] of ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'', when Tim mentions Joel Schumacher as the "Bat Credit Card" guy, the Critic fires a gun at Tim for bringing it up.
