It's truly awesome to look at how far fandom and the community it has created has come in the last few years. I count some of my closest friends among those I met through the convention world and it's been a privilege to help usher new kids into the fold (especially those that felt isolated by their nerdy/weird loves like I did as a kid). Thanks for your enthusiastic love for what you do, we need more of that in the world!
my prediction for 2017: 1.the emoji movie will suck 2.Andre will love it 3.3 months after the movies release Andre will do an unboxing on emoji movie merchandise sent by sony 4.the emoji movie will be #1 on Chris stuckmanns worst movie of 2017 list.Chris will then say I can't believe there are emoji movie cults. 5.someone on Twitter will say black nerd started the emoji movie cult in response to Chris'video.Andre will then reply back saying yeah im an emoji-movie-aholic :)
One of the (rare) best favorites moments of 2016: "The Loud House" (amazing cartoon), "Persona 5", "Overwatch", "Deadpool" & "Zootopia". the new "A Tribe Called Quest" & "De La Soul" album. I met the legendary George Clinton (of Parliament-Funkadelic). I got myself a brand new car that summer. And of course... your videos. Happy 2017! 😊
Love your positivity here, Andre! While the state of the world can be pretty bad at times, it should never over shadow the beauty in it. 2016 was a huge year for my own geek outs for my favourite music and TV shows, and those little moments make all the difference.
I'm keeping my hopes for 2017 low. As long as I can get more videos from Andre, I'm good. ...YAY! First Black Nerd video of 2017! My wish is all ready being fulfilled!
Just seeing Superman and Batman fight wasn't enough to entertain me. I needed to actually like and care about those two characters and the world they live in. But I didn't. SO them fighting ment nothing.
***** Yeah I agree, they should have focused on Batman V Superman and ditched the Dawn of Justice part. All these dreams about future movies, cameos on computer screens of Justice League members, Wonder Woman poppingher head up every now and then with no real reason to be there. The should have used all that time to biuld Clark and Bruces personalities and relationships. It's like the film kept getting distracted trying to advertise future movies rather than focus on making one good film.
rodster6 also it had like 3 comics in one movie: superman birthright, dark knight returns, and death of superman. Plus I didn't like how they added the whole subplot with superman in the desert. wasn't the destruction of metropolis enough of a reason for the world to hate superman so they didn't need to make bvs more complicated by adding that subplot
MsAnimalLover16101 You said it, exactly! Market's way too flooded for a power house like DC succumbing to pressure and releasing bad feature films....continually. What a waste of terrific material.
It's nice to look back on the positives of the year. While my personal life was pretty chaotic last year awesome media really helped me push through it. Here's to an amazing 2017!
One of the good things to happen to me in 2016 was I, my mom, and my sister, while being bored waiting for something I was planning on going to, stopped by a little panel called "Black Nerd Comedy" at RTX. Real cool. Hope you come back.
Glad to see someone talking about the good of 2016. There was still some good, in the face of all the overwhelming bad, it's good to see positivity here.
For me I enjoyed everthing, I loved Batman V Superman and Suicide Squad feeling happy and smiling all the way through, enjoyed a lot watching Luke Cage, Jessica Jones and Voltron, the appearance of both Black Panther and Spider-Man in Civil War, the appearance of Wonder Woman in BvS, I really like The Legend of Tarzan quite a lot, really, really liked it, including Trolls, Zootopia, Moana, Finding Dory, Fantastic Beasts, Rogue One and Kubo And The Two Strings, the victories of the football team of my country in every match they had during the Copa América, the gold medals and winnings of Mariana Pajón, Caterine Ibargüen, Carlos Oquendo and Yuberjen Martínez during the Olymics, the great kicsass new albums of Adelitas Way and Skillet, and the tour of Maroon 5 in Bogotá
Things from 2016 that I would Happy Rant about: the awesomeness that is Captain America: Civil War (ME AND SPIDER-MAN!), the beauty that is La La Land (what a score), the surprise that is Sing Street (great soundtrack!), Deadpool was done right, and the beauty who is Felicity Jones 😍
It's nice to see some positive things about 2016 instead of the majority being like "2016 was the worst year" while ignoring all the good things. Honestly, this whole internet mentality of pessimism being a cool thing is annoying.
BuckyBarnesAndNoble I strongly agree with you almost every review or commentary especially one that's on video games has some cynical,negative person who thinks that calling everything cringe means their funny. There are times where being negative can be funny, but when that is all you see it gets really annoyng in my opinion.

You know, with all of the negativity on the internet these days, it's nice to see a positive outlook. After all, a positive attitude is contagious! Thanks Andre! :D
My favorite things about 2016 aside from the films the shows and the games like you mentioned are as follows.... Andre Black Nerd, Lamarr Wilson, Tay Zonday, Social Repose, DashieXP, Nostalgia Critic, Chez Lindsay, Katie Wilson, Time with Bekka, Brians Man Cave, JD Witherspoon, Smooth Mcgroove, Brizzy Voices, Scream Team, Markiplier, Mr Cheezypop, Curiousjoi, Boogie2988, AlphaOmegaSin, Eric Dunn, Filthy Frank...etc I LOVED UA-cam THIS YEAR!!! All this great entertaining content that has been the beginning and end of my day every day. All of these channels inspire the heck outta me to do parodies and rants on my own channel. I'm not in the same league as all these Titans I just listed but maybe one day I'll be at vidcon rubbing elbows with all these internet entertainers that I love.
There were a lot of "say what you will"s in this video lol Even though there was a bunch of death and tragedy this year, for nerds this was a phenomenal year
+Blazerak Cause for some reason you always have to defend your opinion on this Internet cause god forbid who disagree (or agree) with Internet mob mentality :)
The ninja turtle cross over episode was amazing. My son worships the ninja turtles so it was really great to see the characters I grew up with interacting with the characters he has come to adore.
Cool, alright can bring up Deadpool and Civil War as a positive thing without everyone shooting down someone else's opinion please? I believe in this comment community.
I'm happy that Mary Elizabeth Winstead has been in some solid projects this year and soon Fargo. Hoping she gets the Domino role in Deadpool that she supposedly read for.
Well said! I loved the TMNT crossover episode and the Neca 90s TMNT movie figures!! They have to be the best figures I have ever seen!!! Disney had a great year with all their movies. Zootopia, Muana, Civil War and Rogue One! I loved them all.
I was waiting the entire video for Nine Lives and knew he was going to end the video with itm awesome video. Nerd culture got their fill this year man!
One of my favorite things is the #WAKANDA!!! from you yelling in one of your videos. And I get a great smile from you liking that gif I made of you being excited about Storm and Psyloche lmbao

Andre "Black Nerd" ITS SO AMAZING I LOVE STRANGER THINGS SO MUCH I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE LOLL
It's TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haven't seen it yet.
The best thing about 2016 is that it introduced me to your channel :)
Awwwwww
hmmm *looks at profile pic* I can guess which video that was. (probably not though, I discovered him long before that one)
Thinh Vo but I'm a lesbo °¬°
Corrin Flakes it was actually his civil war video ;)
The Legit Zooer I knew him since a Super Mario 3D World skit a while back. If not even further. (It might've been)
2016 sucked
My mother, brother, sister, dad, uncle, Aunty, grandad, grandmother, and all my cousins died, of laughter while watching dawn of justice
OMG. I was about to believe you had a bad year or something.
TheRichRoom Same
Apollo DA Sigh...The Martha scene? You know I felt I was kinda laughing with the scene then laughing at it.
Apollo DA I feel your pain. I lost my grandmother she was 86.
***** Dude read the whole comment.

Black Nerd is going to get 1 million subs this year. I'm calling it
Firestorm hell yeah!
Firestorm no he should get FIFTEEN BILLION SUBS
Andre's videos literally make my day😊 his positive personality is so contagious

my prediction for 2017:
1.the emoji movie will suck
2.Andre will love it
3.3 months after the movies release Andre will do an unboxing on emoji movie merchandise sent by sony
4.the emoji movie will be #1 on Chris stuckmanns worst movie of 2017 list.Chris will then say I can't believe there are emoji movie cults.
5.someone on Twitter will say black nerd started the emoji movie cult in response to Chris'video.Andre will then reply back saying yeah im an emoji-movie-aholic :)

-Final Fantasy XV.

-Stranger Things.
-My Hero Academia.
Just seeing Superman and Batman fight wasn't enough to entertain me. I needed to actually like and care about those two characters and the world they live in. But I didn't. SO them fighting ment nothing.
rodster6 I cared more about Superman than Batman in the Ultimate Edition.
*****

Leafy quitting was my best.
Sean McNamara he didn't quit... he is taking a break
Sylvia Smith Basically
He didn't, he's was just taking a break
Thanks Andre! It's really nice to see the positive things of 2016, with so many tough things having happened. Appreciate it! :)
I still remember when they showed Spiderman in Civil War... as soon as "Queens" showed up everyone started screaming in the theatre lmao
Good recap on some fun things in 2016 - hoping for the best of 2017!
"My wallet and bank account aren't pleased but my heart is" That was a really good quote.
It took a few years of pushing to get a convention in our area. And it. is. AWESOME!
Superman vs Batman
7.8 Too much Martha.
Dai Nobu shhhhh, don't bring up that movie, you'll turn this happy area into an area full of anger and hate.
Dai Nobu You mean hail Hydra
7.8 is pretty good lol
ZR J-Ro actually that note is part of the joke
ZR J-Ro Its a proper score minus the Martha bit.
I love that Andre has been on UA-cam for so long and neve feels fake or like a sell out. Respect is unreal for this man-child
Happy New Year!!!!!
God Bless us all.....
Thank you for this video filled with light-heartedness and positive energy - great way to start the year
Thanks for making this Andre. I needed this.
Cubs world series win was the most exciting time as a life long Cubs fan.
loved the TMNT crossover ,zootopia and finding dory,and OVERWATCH
Great minds like alike!

This was a great year for talking animal movies!! Finding Dory, The Jungle Book, Zootopia and SING (The last one I haven't seen yet, I'm in England!)
the best thing of 2016 was me finding your old content from 10 years ago. you should do that again those music videos are dope
Meeting you Andre at Retropalooza was my favorite moment of 2016
Things from 2016 that I would Happy Rant about: the awesomeness that is Captain America: Civil War (ME AND SPIDER-MAN!), the beauty that is La La Land (what a score), the surprise that is Sing Street (great soundtrack!), Deadpool was done right, and the beauty who is Felicity Jones 😍
Oh look, a positive video about 2016. Good to see a video about this.
I clicked the Bell like you said Andre! UA-cam won't stop me from watching your videos!
Your best and worst lists was probably the best one I've seen yet. Mainly because I agree with pretty much all of it.
HAPPY NEW YEAR ANDRE! CANT WAIT FOR MORE STUFF FROM YOU THIS YEAR!
I love that you do both of these each year (the bad and the good).
I can't believe you waited so long to watch Stranger Things. Such a great show with all that great 80's nerdiness.
Happy New Year, Andre! I love your videos so much!
Looking forward to more videos featuring Max!
The best thing I've seen (from you Andre) was the collab with Tamara Chambers...very funny!
Trust me Andre, I'm VERY HYPE for the Black Panther movie!
DC rebirth is currently killing my bank account....
Thanks for the video, Andre, makes me wish you had done a Best of 2015 video.

There are times where being negative can be funny, but when that is all you see it gets really annoyng in my opinion.
Watching Batman and Superman fight *would* have been worth sitting through that movie if it had decent choreography or any thematic heft.

Love Zootopia, Deadpool, Civil War, Bebop and Rocksteady in tmnt and the power rangers trailer :p
Andre you need to upload a video of you playing OverWatch! That'd be hilarious to watch!!😂😂😂
If you wanna watch bad gameplay, sure, ha ha!
The ninja turtle cross over episode was amazing. My son worships the ninja turtles so it was really great to see the characters I grew up with interacting with the characters he has come to adore.
10 Cloverfield Lane was my favorite movie this year too!
the quality of your videos are always so good! content is even better! cheers!
Happy New Year Andre. Keep doing what u do. 😉
You've given us the good, you've given us the bad, but when are you gonna give us the neeerrrrdiest of 2016?
Owe you an apology lol.

My bad and much love for 2017 Andre.
+Steven Adams Don't know what your apologizing for, but I accept your apology :)
Thanks for doing good things in 2016 vid!!!
Cool, alright can bring up Deadpool and Civil War as a positive thing without everyone shooting down someone else's opinion please? I believe in this comment community.
Looking forward to more great and funny videos from you in 2017, Andre!
One of the best of 2016 is the Punisher story ark in the Daredevil tv-show.
Thanks man, I needed this.
Didn't even mention the reveal of the Nintendo switch. smh
Hoping the Nintendo Switch will make Best of 2017.
Andre "Black Nerd" hoping it doesn't make the worst of 2017 rant
I hurt my arm while playing soccer. Great start to 2017.
Something is watching you from behind in the dark... Ahahah
Captain America Civil War is now on Netflix streaming
I'm happy that Mary Elizabeth Winstead has been in some solid projects this year and soon Fargo. Hoping she gets the Domino role in Deadpool that she supposedly read for.
I will now be refreshing your channel day and night, until I see your Stranger Things reaction/review. So hyped.
I think one of the best things was the llama from Sing 😂 so much emphasis on that last hammer!!
favorite things were seeing "nerd" culture accepted as mainstream. Great video!!!!
Yes!! You did a Best Of too!! Although, I don't think anything can beat your angry rants!
Happy New Year Andre!!!
Well said! I loved the TMNT crossover episode and the Neca 90s TMNT movie figures!! They have to be the best figures I have ever seen!!! Disney had a great year with all their movies. Zootopia, Muana, Civil War and Rogue One! I loved them all.
My favorite thing about 2016?
It ending.
Thanks for reviewing STB. I will never doubt your nerd credibility again. ;-)
I was waiting the entire video for Nine Lives and knew he was going to end the video with itm awesome video. Nerd culture got their fill this year man!
One of my favorite things is the #WAKANDA!!! from you yelling in one of your videos.
And I get a great smile from you liking that gif I made of you being excited about Storm and Psyloche lmbao
You know what, you are so right, 2016 was a good year for fandoms :)
Rank choice voting is coming to Maine because of 2016 which means they can vote for third parties without worrying about the spoiler effect
2016 had good games, movies and tv shows, it was good year to me.
HAPPY NEW YEAR Andre
