John Oliver's Cereal Segment Takes Detour To Trash Marvel Movies

John Oliver crunched up and spit out Marvel films throughout a “Last Week Tonight” phase dedicated to breakfast cereal. (Watch the video under.)

In an internet unique posted Sunday, the host bemoaned the shortage of thrilling new cereals available on the market. He hailed an outdated favourite, Reese’s Puffs, as one of many final to genuinely trigger a stir.

“The point is, when was the last time cereal news penetrated the mainstream since then? I’ll tell ya ― it fucking hasn’t!” Oliver stated.

He went on to reward the “one good cereal commercial” within the final decade ― a Frosted Flakes spot through which Tony the Tiger and Shaquille O’Neal debate who loves the cereal extra.

“That is, start to finish, a perfect cereal commercial,” Oliver stated. “In just half a minute, it establishes a world in which Tony the Tiger exists, has a handsomely decorated home office, including a custom Tony nameplate, apparently video chats Shaquille O’Neal every single morning for breakfast and that they love each other. That is a more richly detailed cinematic universe than what Marvel has made in 13 fucking years.”

Cautious, John, that universe has a man who could make half of civilization disappear in a rush.
