During the campaign, Korey Coleman and Martin Thomas continued to podcast and update fans on the growing total. On the final night, they held a 24-hour live stream with guests and fans stopping by for support. At the end of the stream, the final amount given was $133,860.

Although YouTube not being their priorital career, they do upload highlight videos of their Movie Review Extravaganzas on the channel, usually being around 20-35 minutes long.

Rating System[]
After giving their thoughts on the movie, each critic gives a rating based on how much of your time and money are worth spending on it. Each rating can have a high/low variation (Such as Low Full Price or High Matinee). From highest to lowest, they are:
- BETTER THAN SEX! - The best rating given; meaning the film is beyond excellent, and exceeds the boundaries of cinema as a form of art.
- Full Price - A highly enjoyable film, which is worth paying full price for at the movie theater.
- Matinee - Worth seeing at the movie theater, but not worth paying full price for (at least not during initial theatrical run).
- Rental - Can be enjoyed, but still has a variety of flaws; this is worth paying very little to see post-theatrical release.
- Some Ol' Bulls**t - The crew recommends against paying any money to see the film, and has very little that redeems it.
- F**K YOU! - The worst rating given; meaning the crew actively recommends against seeing this film altogether, typically given when a crew member is angered or offended by the film's content, indicating it holds no redeeming qualities.
