Claims analyzed
Licensed movie tie-in games have sucked since gaming began — Opinion (50/100)
Classic blanket take — every licensed game ever was bad? That's doing a lot of work.
Disney released a Finding Nemo game for GameCube during their push into gaming — OK (65/100)
Finding Nemo did come out on GameCube in 2003 — but it was a THQ-published licensed game, not a Disney-published title trying to build credibility.
Claims 90% of Rise of the Underminer is underground levels — OK (65/100)
Sounds about right for an Underminer villain game — but no official level breakdown exists to confirm the exact percentage.
Says the upgrade menu is copied from The SpongeBob Movie game — Dubious (40/100)
Strong accusation but zero side-by-side proof — could be similar UI conventions rather than actual copy-paste.
Only Mr. Incredible and Frozone are playable in Rise of the Underminer — Solid (80/100)
Checks out with multiple sources listing just those two characters — the missed-opportunity take is fair.
Game has only 10 levels and can be beaten in ~115 minutes — OK (60/100)
The 10-level count appears in multiple old reviews, but the runtime comparison is rough — depends on skill and whether you do side content.
Game has only 10 levels and is a basic beat 'em up with formulaic story — OK (70/100)
10 levels is right — the repetitive robot-smashing structure is the main criticism people had.

Pure opinion on a licensed tie-in — no objective metric exists for "good sequel" here.
Game used early Shrek concept art because Chris Farley died 3 years before 2000 deal — Dubious (45/100)
Farley died in 1997 so the math works — but no proof they actually used old concept art.

He's calling out the weird mismatch between realistic spiders and Shrek's cartoon world — fair visual critique.
Shrek game tried to be Mario 64 but failed — Opinion (50/100)
Fair take — Shrek clearly chased that 3D collectathon vibe and landed in the uncanny valley instead.
Enter the Matrix game is fully canon alongside the movies — Opinion (50/100)
The Wachowskis treated the game's story as canon at the time, but later Matrix entries largely ignored it.

Tron (1982) actually made decent money for its era — the later ones flopped harder.

Classic 'fight me' energy on whether a licensed game counts as canon continuation.
