Jeremy is a good movie reviewer compared to IGN. Also Stuckmann and the schmoes are legit film critics and the only YouTube reviewers that get their reviews up on RottenTomatoes.

They're YouTube entertainers.
Legit Film critics are people like David Denby, Andrew Sarris. Frank E. Woods, A. O. Scott, Todd McCarthy, etc.

That doesn't change the difference between a legit film critic and someone like Chris Stuckmann who just entertains YouTubers.

Why can't they be "legit film" critics? Is it because their reviews are YouTube videos? If so then that is stupid.

You obviously don't understand anything about film criticism - nor film critics.
People like Frank E. Woods wasn't just "someone with an opinion"; he shaped and even built the entire structure for what was the silent film industry. Before he helped, cinema was a dying artform that was reverred as a "mere gimmick". He helped usher it into a new era by partnering up with D. W. Griffith, and was the only person willing to do a small project; Birth of a Nation. The film that made cinema become a "legitimate artform", while also being the highest-grosssing movie of all-time, back then. Without Frank, Griffith wouldn't have done any of it - and on top of that, Frank was also the only and first critic to be recongized in the industry, helping move forward a pathway for hundreds years later.
People like Andrew Sarris, Pauline Kael and Roger Ebert were the ones who made film criticism into a mainstream thing. They were also the ones who made Television stars legit stars by being the first ones to push the medium forward. Critics like them were also the ones who jumpstarted cable Television, and, funny enough, without them, Chris Stuckmann and Jeremy Jahns would never have their YouTube careers.
Going even beyond what legit critics have done, they're also ones who uses criticism in their reviews in a profound and insighting way. The only thing Stuckmann has ever done is look into a camera and pause for a laugh. Oh, and say things like: "The cinematography is beautiful", completely neglecting what cinematography even is. Let alone, even mention what it is about it that makes it that way.
For you to compare YouTube entertainers to some of the biggest icons and innovators in the film indsutry just goes to show how little you know about film criticism and the importance of "Legit" critics. Without people like Frank and Sarris, both the film industry, along with the TV one, would've never taken off in the way that it has.
I'm sure you'll find some way to try to neglect what I've just said, but I'm also sure you haven't done any research into anything other YouTube videos. Have fun.
