Bionicritical

"90% of everything is crap."

- Sturgeon's law, which Echo 1 considers the describing phrase of fanfiction.

Bionicritical is a review series on YouTube created by Echo 1. It is currently hosted on the Custom BIONICLE YouTube Channel.

Early Episodes
The series involves CBW articles, MOCs, art, or stories being reviewed by Echo 1. Every now, and then, though, he reviews non-Bionicle fanfics and material of his choice. His voice is accompanied by a sprite of his self MOC Malachi showing emotions related to Echo 1's comments. It also has a song being used as a sort of 'theme' for the episode, which is played at the opening and closing of the episode.

In the credits, Echo 1 often has a humorous title before his name, such as "Unafraid to Offend" or "Dislikes Spiders".

Later Episodes
After the release of the third episode, user Jman98 became the head of the "animation" department. The sprite was replaced with Jman's version of Malachi, along with a new, standard opening. The show also received a new theme song: "Kumo Rocks", from the Bionicle Power Pack CD.

Style
Echo 1 usually provides critical points in stories, often criticizing plot points or errors, concepts that don't seem "realistic" (realistic by the setting of the story, not real life).

Running Gags

 * Echo 1 often sarcastically compares stories to his novel Quest for the Masks
 * Sturgeon's law is brought up quite often.
 * Echo 1 sarcastically rants about his 'amazing MOCing abilities' in MOC reviews.
