  • Cowboy BeBop at His Computer:
    • In his Pokémon Detective Pikachu quickie, Marcus stated that the movie isn't based off of any given title in the series. He apparently missed that the game is based on the (admittedly obscure) Detective Pikachu spin-off. He acknowledged this mistake in the comments section of the video after he posted it.
    • Due to, by his own admission, speedreading JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, he makes a few misconceptions in his video rant on the series:
      • He chalks off some characters like Polnareff and Fugo as the "funny coward" and the "calm cool guy" respectively. The problem is that if one reads the manga, those characters he's referring to are certainly not as he makes them out to be.
      • He criticizes how Fugo was Put on a Bus simply because of his Story-Breaker Power and Hirohiko Araki having no idea what to do with him. However, this has been a common misconception: Araki had planned for Fugo to be The Mole, but due to undergoing depression at the time, couldn't bring himself to write such a dark storyline and instead decided to harmlessly write Fugo out of the plot.
    • In his marathon of the Harry Potter movies, he expresses frustration with Harry not using magic against the basilisk in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, apparently missing that Tom Riddle took Harry's wand earlier.
    • In his review of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, he says that the Jewish Ravenclaw student Anthony Goldstein isn't in any of the Harry Potter books or movies because J. K. Rowling made him up when asked if there were any Jewish students at Hogwarts after the series was over. Goldstein is actually a minor Dumbledore's Army member mentioned multiple times in the books starting in the fifth.
