Trivia / Saberspark

• Accidentally-Correct Writing: In his review on The Donkey King, Saberspark calls Vizer Fitna, the fox girl in the movie, a temptress. Rather fitting, since Fitna translates to "temptation" in Arabic.
• Colbert Bump:
  • Many of the animated films and shows he covers have gained a wholly new audience from his viewers. While it's usually the "bad" ones like Gaither's Pond, it also led to many looking for The Great Warrior Wall, a Chinese CGI animated series inspired by Kung Fu Panda, or seeing Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs, a Korean film berated for its poor marketing and supposed "body-shaming", which Saber describes as actually pretty good and done bad by the advertising.
  • While Chip Chilla was never well-liked to begin with, Saberspark's tweets and later video on it brought it further attention, which resulted in more negative reviews on it on IMDb and other sites.
• Corpsing:
  • In his review of The Nuttiest Nutcracker, Saberspark tries valiantly and fails to get through the line "Are you telling me he had to bust the biggest nut to save the princess?" without cracking up, and eventually just gives up trying. Though to be fair, it would take an unusually clean mind to actually pull it off.
  • In his review of Christmas in New York, he actually breaks down laughing while trying to explain the movie's absurd plot.
  • He struggles with saying Schmuby Productions' name with a straight face in his review of Unicorn Wars.
• Creator Backlash: He admits he came to regret his review of Bobbleheads: The Movie after he learned of the heavy Executive Meddling director Kirk Wise and scriptwriter Tab Murphy were put through.
• Development Hell: In late 2020/early 2021, he announced a video about the infamous Jehovah's Witnesses cartoon Become Jehovah's Friend, but it has been delayed for a long time. He then announced in his review for The God Makers that he plans to finally release it in December 2023. Come 2024, it still hasn't been released.
• Doing It for the Art: In the announcement video about the future of the channel, Saber decides to reduce his upload frequency in exchange for longer and higher quality videos to combat burnout, even if it means risking becoming "less relevant" to the Youtube algorithm and earning less revenue from it.
• Fake American: English Elsie Lovelock voices Sabiespark, a Distaff Counterpart of the American Saberspark.
• Fan Community Nicknames: In the Transformation Fiction video, Sabie addresses the audience as "Team Saberspark".
• Missing Episode:
  • Several of his review videos were taken down from his channel, usually for copyright infringement. Those are listed below, under Screwed by the Lawyers.
  • His "Let's Watch" videos on Bad Cat and Spider's Web: A Pig's Tale were unlisted after his former editor Cosmodore, who appeared in both videos, confessed to dating an underage girl.
• Screwed by the Lawyers:
  • Due to the nature of his content, his channel has been repeatedly plagued by copyright claims and video takedowns, like his reaction video to Animal Kingdom: Let's Go Ape, and his reviews of Ronal the Barbarian, Strawinsky and the Mysterious House, and Wolfoo, have all been removed from his channel.
  • His review of the Balto trilogy was constantly hit by copyright strikes, delaying it for several weeks until it was finally released on May 13, 2023.
