Ferdinand von Terl

Colonel Ferninand Von Terrl was the antagonist of Battlefield Earth, with John Travolta in his role. For his 100th episode, The Nostalgia Critic reviewed his film, and Terrl interrupts it in order to properly lecture the critic in acting.

Nostalgia Critic
During his review of Battlefield Earth, Terrl interrupted the review to lecture the critic on acting. Though the Critic initially cut him off. Terrl is constantly called by the Critic to counter the plot holes involving his species' stupidity. Terrl, after boasting about his "superior intellect", reveals that his species won the battle for Earth because they defecated nuclear bombs. At the end of the review, the planet Psychlo is destroyed when one of the inhabitants lit a cigarette (the atmosphere was apparently extremely flammable).

To Boldly Flee
Terrl survived his homeworld's destruction, and blamed the Critic for the extinction of his race and planet. He was then brought in by The Executor, a mysterious hooded Emperor Palpatine-like character. Terrl attempted to legally attack the Critic by trying to appeal to the U.S. Senate, giving strong support for his proposal with evidence of the Critic's attempts to invade Molossia, the destruction of Psychlo, and the criticizing of his "brilliant" film. However, the Senate, believing that his claims are not of great importance, dismisses him, cutting to commercial whenever he tries to argue.

Agent Prick, hearing his debate, agrees with Terrl's antagonistic views of the internet reviewers and puts the Critic under house arrest. Terrl reveals himself as the cause of the arrest to the Critic, but he has forgotten who he was and hangs up when Terrl admits he can't do anything to him legally.

Terrl's men detects that the Critic is leaving Earth for Europa in his house, which was modified to become a spaceship. Due to his imcopetence, Terrl failed to notice the house pass by his ship, and the Executor sends him a new master; General Zod.

Zod and Terrl do not get along well, and the former makes fun of him when he finds out his first name is Ferninand. After finding the Critic, the two fight for control over the ship (now turned into a house) with Zod winning, stuffing the alien's face into the seat of a couch.
