johannes Andersen It sort of depends on what The Asylum has it set to do at the time. For now, I was only hit with one claim on this video (strange, because they usually double up) and it only served to put ads for The Asylum to make money on, on my work. I've disputed the claim, but I'm completely expecting my dispute to be rejected regardless. Not as bad as the times when they block it worldwide, or hit my channel with a strike that reduces my UA-cam "privileges" for a month. Still bullshit, but "nice" for The Asylum.
Love your review style in this one you were especially on point and energized for this review. It's good to see that recent events haven't put a damper on your reviews. Keep it up!
Boo Bear The way I see it, loss of potential monetization isn't great, but no matter what it's still a good thing to keep the video up. It has value in itself, and of course people who never saw my show might find me through any number of videos that I'm not allowed to monetize. Oh, and The Asylum has rejected my dispute already. So.. does that mean I can start going around calling myself "Decker Shado the Prophet with the Best Hair."?
that Excalibur is actually a glammdring replica sword (gandalfs sword ) I know because I have it hanging on my wall they have taken a little blue gem out and rubbed down the inscription
Stoner Yoda937 no no no Excalibur is actually Gandalf’s sword. It was passed down by Gandalf after he enhanced it. The name for the sword was slowly changed down the line of centuries and centuries, not to mention it was transported from one universe to another so I can see why you would think it was just a prop tho. But yeah it’s the real glammdring sword. Glad to clear that up for you bud no need to thank me.
Asylum is actually pretty close to the source here. Merlin's master was never revealed in the source legend and was simply referred to as "the Mage". Also, fun fact: Merlin's original name was Myrrdin, later Latinized to Merlinus. Geoffrey of Monmouth was the man responsible for the name change and opted to not call him Merdinus, to avoid confusion with Merda, the Latin word for feces. With an author slightly less knowledgeable in Latin, we could have had a grand wizard of legends named after actual shit!
O my god. The Asylum is so cheap. Not even original props for Excalibur, just buy Gandalf sword Glamdring online and use that. Am I the only one that is seeing that? That sword is Glamdring.
I doubt I will get an answer, but what's the song that plays during the end scroll? "Running with my dream, the path I should not follow / the sores of promises / surrounded by my past / I'm falling / all alone / th chain of promise broken" etc etc. A google search didn't yield any results.
i think Asylum should be paying you I mean more people are exposed to Asylum movies then normally would be. Hell your reviews are the most press that Asylum gets on there own I never even heard of Asylum till I started watching your videos. if anything your videos will get more people to watch there movies then normally would just out of curiosity alone. Damn Asylum are some grade a Ass Hates that make a living off of reaping everyone else off From Movies to fans of Movies
I think you're right - the years after years that The Asylum has had the official trailer for Merlin and the War of the Dragons on UA-cam, it's currently sitting at 209 views. How many views does this review have, now? After how long? ;)
Decker could you review Blood Lake:Attack of the killer lampreys, warning it is from ASYLUM in other words the rip-off masters. If anyone from asylum is reading this bite me.
After the summer of hellraiser, could you please review 'Nazis at the center of the earth'. I watched it with some friends. We had to laugh quite often, because it's so stupid.
Uther Pendragon? As in King Uther, Protector of the People? Killed the king and rallied his people to certain death? THE King Uther, the man so noble his son, Arthur, is born pure of heart despite being raised by King Gorlois (father of Morgan le Fay, the evil wizard)? For something that seemed so well researched, it feels like Asylum dropped the ball on that character...
You mean the guy who lusted so much after Gorlois' wife Ingraine that he forced Merlin to transform him in the image of Gorlois just so he can f*ck her, which resulted in her geting pregnant with Arthur? Which is considered rape even in medeival versions of the legend. And which led among other things to Morgan hating her half-brother. Not to mention, Utjer who ultimatly killed Gorlois, but was found by Merlin unworthy to rise Arthur, who was given to sir Hector/Ectorius to be rised. Also, Uther who WAS the one to slay Vortigern. Sorry Bro but somehow your grasp of the legend is worse than Asylum's and that is saying something.
You are my hero good sir! Keep up the awesome work (Hopefully you get around to Resurrection soon... Well at least I hope you do.. I'm pretty sure you'll hate doing it)
max larsen Hey, from what I read about it, it is about some guy raping one girl to death, and then the other girls want to get revenge on him. That sounds like a great setup for a BDSM themed rape porno.
Hi Decker - I found your show about 2 months ago when I was binging on Gamera stuff. Found to really like your show a lot. I'm sorry for how Blip has treated you, but I will give you one sliver of positivity. Blip is stuck In the Flash Video world and technology is quickly passing flash video by. UA-cam, on the other hand, has moved to the HTML5 world and I can watch your show on any device, including my Blu-ray player, Tablet, phone, PS3, etc, whereas I can't do any of that on Blip. If there is any silver lining at all, Blip as long as Blip continues to wallow in in Flash technology, they will continue to lose viewers and content providers and ad revenue. This may be a blessing in disguise. My best wishes on your continued success!
Yeah.. one reason why I continued to post to UA-cam even when I was certain the only "money" to be made (allowing me to actually earn a living doing something I enjoy) was on Blip. There were far too few people on Blip actually going there to watch things.. it was a terrible site for that. (and pretty much still is.) Even though I have to fight for every inch on UA-cam when it comes to monetization, the viewers are here - the comments section, even after Google+, is infinitely better than what people had to do on Blip, and let's not downplay the fact that I can do 1080p without a problem. Even with The Asylum preventing me from monetizing this review, things are still looking up.
this. is. literally the plot baldurs gate. protagonist and antagonist are secretly spawn of some evil and the antagonist kills the protagonists father figure
Decker, between the poor quality of the Asylum movies themselves & that the studio ends up preventing you from gaining anything from the reviews, why do you still watch them?
Decker would you Rather watch a 24hr marathon of the worst Asylum Movies or watch a 24hr loop of Batman and Robin for me I would Chose Batman and Robin
It's odd.. after the first Blip purge, a LOT of members of Manic Expression lost their accounts, but there were a couple like me and Timdiana that got to keep ours. This time, I honestly haven't heard anyone who hasn't lost their show, outside of members of Channel Awesome. (and even then, not all of them did.)
Decker Shado It doesn't make much sense; from a copyright prspective it's not like there's a difference between what you do and what we were doing and, say, what SFDebris is doing. Yet he stays up. Not blaming Chuck, mind you, it's hardly his fault, just noting the oddness.
war of the dragons eh? more like war of the ripoff. too bad about blip. is there another place i can watch your reviews so you gain money? don't have the means to subscribe on your pantheon. (spelled correctly?)
Aaaand... it's been hit by a content ID match from the Asylum!
Called it.
try mirroring the footage next time, it helps alot
huh. I can still watch it.... wird. Do you think it has anything to do with that i live in Europe ?

Decker you deserve alot more views and subscribers
O my god. The Asylum is so cheap.
Not even original props for Excalibur, just buy Gandalf sword Glamdring online and use that.
Am I the only one that is seeing that? That sword is Glamdring.
It is definitely Glamdring lmao.
That sound clip of an old man at 8:13 , isn't it the same one that got used in Happy Wheels ?
I really liked Merlin until about season 5, it got kinda stale after that.
I doubt I will get an answer, but what's the song that plays during the end scroll? "Running with my dream, the path I should not follow / the sores of promises / surrounded by my past / I'm falling / all alone / th chain of promise broken" etc etc. A google search didn't yield any results.
Wait
Is that 1 person at 3:04 WALTER WHITE
TAKE ME PLEASE
That end credits song makes it almost worth it. Great video as always Decker!
What song is it I've been trying to find it.
@@Vivaciousghostonomy chain of promise - ravenswood
Really need to see you review Dragonslayer or Excalibur. Pretty sure you would enjoy them both.
10:56 No no no, Decker, it's "Have at *thee*"
Can you also buy Excalibur at S-Mart?
Wasnt there a movie called Merlin and the Book of Secrets? Or Shadows?
Didn't they ever think to try tossing the bones 2 or 3 times to check just to make sure for accuracy on infanticide.
i think Asylum should be paying you I mean more people are exposed to Asylum movies then normally would be.

Agreed. I never know they existed until I watched your videos.
Since you mentioned Wing Commander, did you do a review of that?
Decker could you review Blood Lake:Attack of the killer lampreys,
warning it is from ASYLUM in other words the rip-off masters.
If anyone from asylum is reading this bite me.
After the summer of hellraiser, could you please review 'Nazis at the center of the earth'. I watched it with some friends. We had to laugh quite often, because it's so stupid.
how has shado not noticed they used a replica of Glamdring from LOTR for Excalibur?
Yes but Decker of course they couldn't do healing spells 2 save his life from the crossbow bolt, they're mages not priests.
These asylum reviews are my favorite lol
You seem like you would fit nicely with another youtuber named Krimson Rogue
Your reviews are so good and so well done that it makes me almost want to watch A Asylum movie Well I did say almost
Pretty sure Excalibur in this movie is an exact copy of Glamdring, Gandalf's sword from LotR.
You should try reviewing 300 Spartans
Uther Pendragon? As in King Uther, Protector of the People? Killed the king and rallied his people to certain death?
THE King Uther, the man so noble his son, Arthur, is born pure of heart despite being raised by King Gorlois (father of Morgan le Fay, the evil wizard)?

4:38 If only it was that easy back in the days of King Arthur.
Wait....8:15 legit it's the wheelchair man from Happy Wheels 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remmber watching this movie when I was a kid
You are my hero good sir! Keep up the awesome work
(Hopefully you get around to Resurrection soon... Well at least I hope you do.. I'm pretty sure you'll hate doing it)
You need to finish reviewing predator 1 and alien ressurection
The Asylum has many more films than I anticipated... the film "Asian School Girls" caught my eye... until I read into it, that is.
Jailen Kurimuzon That sounds like a porno that wanted to be a porno but couldn't be a porno and just became an Asylum film.
max larsen Hey, from what I read about it, it is about some guy raping one girl to death, and then the other girls want to get revenge on him.
That sounds like a great setup for a BDSM themed rape porno.
Dang it, Das Boot just lost a bit of it's shine. Why would he do this film?
and this is how happy wheels wheelchair guy's origin look like. 8:15
OW my foot!. ow my ARM!
I have this on dvd echo bridge
Will u do alien resercation
Just like April 20 is always Blaze, Swag and Yolo day.
Do the Dew! Do Reet Toes! Smoke Weed Everyday!

Decker Shado Set up a website and ask for Donations. Spoony and Brad Jones still do that. Don't see why you couldn't.
what do u have to do to start.making money on videos u make?
Can you imagine if i ran around claiming i was an emperor because some moistened bink had lobbed a scimitar at me.they would put me away
Merlin is the boy from the show vikings, the priest son.
this. is. literally the plot baldurs gate. protagonist and antagonist are secretly spawn of some evil and the antagonist kills the protagonists father figure
HOLY SHIT!!! Decker, you have a katana... Go hold up blip.tv and tell them to fix the bullshit >:)
8:14 HAPPY WHEELS?!?!?!
Or as Jackscepticeye taught me, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPY WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELS!
Decker, between the poor quality of the Asylum movies themselves & that the studio ends up preventing you from gaining anything from the reviews, why do you still watch them?
Decker would you Rather watch a 24hr marathon of the worst Asylum Movies or watch a 24hr loop of Batman and Robin for me I would Chose Batman and Robin
Hm.... That is a tough one.. Asylum movies would be more varied, but they can get SO MUCH WORSE than Batman and Robin... O_o
Oh, Merlin? Really? I enjoyed that show.
this is the only asylum film I like
Feel your pain, mate. Me and my friends had Blip take down our show. Arseholes.
It's odd.. after the first Blip purge, a LOT of members of Manic Expression lost their accounts, but there were a couple like me and Timdiana that got to keep ours. This time, I honestly haven't heard anyone who hasn't lost their show, outside of members of Channel Awesome. (and even then, not all of them did.)
Dude...Dailymotion. There's my answer!

Welsh Britons vs Anglo Saxons the English
Deckers rating: 2/5
🤘🍻🤘
The sad thing is you watched the movie (-; it looks like a piece of steaming shit lol
war of the dragons eh? more like war of the ripoff. too bad about blip. is there another place i can watch your reviews so you gain money? don't have the means to subscribe on your pantheon. (spelled correctly?)
I swear he just reviews these asylum movies because he hates the company. These movies are shit. Not even good shit.
