You don’t understand. RLM think it’s an elite club to shit on Hollywood. The plebeians are dazzled by celebrity and bright lights, but Mike and Jay know how the sausage is made and that makes them better than the average person. They like to be able to say that their favorite vintage was from back when vineyards knew how to make movies, and now the unwashed masses satisfy themselves with box wine.

>>216479875
No they dont. They dont take themselves seriously at all and obviously see value in a lot of different types of art and clearly say they like certain things to fuck with eachother.

They found a way to make a living having fun with their friends. People take it very personally when rlm dislikes something they like. Mike frequently changes his mind about things and again, doesn't really take it seriously.

Only people who take what they say very seriously are their triggered critics. Thats said, rlm are intelligent enough and do have good taste for the most part. Every other movie review youtube is the most cringe waste of time aside from "on cinema"
>>
They seem to have a very freshman understanding of the industry that comes from having gone to film school but not having actually worked in the industry worth a damn. A lot of their criticism is just very basic bitch stuff that sounds like it's, while true, is just the shit their teacher said or any HOW TO book will say because it's so fundamentally obvious.
>>
>>216480136
TRUKE
>>
Basically a large chunk of this video comes down to something that I said to one of my friends a long time ago, before I ever saw the Plinkette Episode One roasting; George Lucas should have had a secondary screenwriter, or some form of critique group 'read along' to sort-out George's messy scripts out. The directing was fine in a Phantom Menace. It had a lot of neat ideas.The prequels needed some script re-writes. Episode 2's directing is really lazy for some reason. Episode 3 is a chaotic mess. Aside from that, the guy who made this video spends a lot of time talking about how RLM are essentially just spinning their wheels at this point. IDK. I watched the video at 1.75X speed to get it over fast. I could still understand him well enough.

It's gonna happen to him too, you know. Probably far faster than it did for them. Frankly if these people had any sense of irony or self awareness they'd drop the internet critic shit fast and make something more meaningful.

I don't get this

You literally have to the rest of the world that does not have the same attachment with the OG star wars, and pretty much agree the sequels are full of shits even dismissing the original trilogy and the prequels.

If that is not incompetency, then what is?

And people need to remember before TLJ opening in the US, rest of Asia like Korea, Japan and Taiwan/HK already have the film in theater for days. And they already calling the film bad online before Disney can start blaming white man and Russians for the bad reception.

I think they alongside the AVGN both got into this with wide eyed ambitions, love and excitement for the medium. But they spent so much time going on about other people's work for so long that they forgot how to enjoy it and before they knew it so much time has passed that they lost their chance to really get involved with it in the way they hoped. So know they have to settle. It's too late to do anything else. Just patiently run out the clock. Get as much patreon bucks as they can for as long as they can and then pray that people lose interest so they can just leave as shattered dead inside husks.

RLM (Reddit Letter Media) are the living embodiment of the smug, detached Gen-X ethos.

I'd venture to guess none of them has felt a single sincere conviction about anything since childhood. They exist as polyps upon the colon of culture, satiating themselves on the perceived failures of others (i.e. "The Man") while adding nothing new to the discourse aside from ironic complaint.

They're a group of insecure, lost, rapidly aging burnouts who silently believe they could do a better job of making films than the professionals in the industry. Yet they lack the ambition and ability to actually enter the very industry they're obsessed with. They choose instead to fuck around and make student film piss-takes well into middle age.

They are awful, awful people. I've met thousands just like them, and the last thing we need is for these people to gain any attention for their navel gazing.

Please, /tv/, do not aspire to become anything like these people. Theirs is a lonely road leading to depression and a life devoid of real purpose.

I hope they disappear and their disaffected followers stop subsidizing their lifestyle. Perhaps that would force them to do something productive with themselves

This genre of video sucks. A parapolitics zoomer unnecessarily dramatizes something in order to make a 2 hour long video. The length is to make it feel important and researched and the extra drama is to create a sense of immediacy. This is just another type of slop.
If you watch shit like this but are worried about "enshittification" and "slopification" due to capitalism kill yourself.

the "theatrical experience" is nothing but a meme. Eventually all theaters are going to be niche attractions like drive in theaters are now. People will claim they miss, but they won't really.

>>216480136
Correct. Zoomers are so mind-rotted due to corpo slop they see Lucas' toy commercial movies as some romantic masterpiece. That nigga put a a cgi jazz music video in the middle of New Hope for one of the cash grab re-releases, he's never living it down.

firstly, Star Wars is for children, and the prequels captivated children, so they must have been doing something right.
Secondly, that was Return of the Jedi, and you people hand-wring far too much about how much the Special Editions supposedly "ruined Star Wars". Shut the fuck up.
>>
>>216479180
Quality doesn't exist to a Marxist. There is only the relationship between capital and laborers. Laborers produce widgets, which are stolen by capitalists. End of story. Star Wars didn't fail because of bad directors, a bad script, or a bad whatever. It was always going to fail, the working class should have gotten the revenue from when it was profitable.
>>
>>216481457
>firstly, Star Wars is for children, and the prequels captivated children, so they must have been doing something right.
By that motte logic spongebob is better.

It just shows that Lucas has always been a greedy hack that got saved by his editors.
>>
>>216481493
admittedly, they are right in as much as it was always going to fail when Disney got their hands on it, without the input of the one guy who actually cared about telling a story, which was George.
Turning things into brands for maximum profitability is literally what they do.
what they miss is the flagrant anti-white and feminist ideology, that went into every decision, when making these movies, and how that accounts for at least half of the reasons they're so terrible.
>>
>>216481493
>>Quality doesn't exist to a Marxist.
Wrong.
>>
>>216481533
Maybe Spongebob is better than Star Wars?

Lucas was heavily involved in editing the original movies, btw. The narrative that his original cut sucked, and then his wife saved it, is complete revisionist history.

Read theory. There is only the product of laborers. "Quality" is made up by capitalists to convince you to buy product. Really you just be happy with what you have.

>>216481570
Could anyone actually deny Spongebob being better than Star Wars? There's not a single comedic beat in any of the Star Wars films on par with Nosferatu messing with the lights.
>>
>>216481021
Wait.

Do you work in film? If not then shut the fuck up you hypocrite. RLM knows how risky and expensive film making is, they've never purported to be great film makers but they do make money mocking movies, wise to just keep doing that.

Space cop clearly is supposed to be bad also.

Jay and Mike have a clear love for all types of cinema and always are excited to see well made films
>>
Absolutely terrible video. I skipped through it 4 times and it was just complete fucking rambling each time. The core point, I guess, is that they seem to hate current cinema which is true and the decent production budget carries too much for people that don't like current movies.
>>
>>216481616
Quality is a philosophical concept from ancient Greece that had nothing to do with labor or products, there were no products and all labor was done by slaves who were irrelevant to discussions
>>
>>216481623
I wouldn't ever make the comparison, but Spongebob is a great franchise in it's own right. I don't know why that was that anon's idea of a gotcha.

I don't care dude. You're talking about the retards who have been convinced that corporate feudalism is Marxism, and they're being opposed by retards who have been convinced that corporate feudalism is
Nationalism.

In reality, the perfect capitalist transaction is swindling someone to give you money for nothing (i.e. 0% quality product or literally nothing, a brand name etc.) Therefore if you care about human beings not being swindled out of their labor you will obviously care about quality.

Yet still the threads get made. What exactly have they done in the past to warrant such sustained attention? And why haven't you all dropped their asses like all the other wannabe film makers, like Ralph and IHM?

>>
As much as I love the OT (and it is still the best trilogy), people overrate the hell out of it.
They're great movies for kids, and they have amazing soundtracks and really good special effects for the time, sure. The universe they introduce you to is highly appealing, and was basically screaming out to be exploited with spin-offs and video games for the next 50 years.
That said, if you really pick them apart, the way people do the prequels, they are kind of hacky, on a storytelling and character development level. The biggest ball drop that no one ever talks about is the Luke just decides that Vader still has good in him, for no reason. It's so unearned, and absolutely none of it was set up in prior movies. And yeah, Leia being Luke's sister sucks. It's lazy, it kills the love triangle, it retroactively makes the kiss in the first movie weird. I don't know how that ever got okayed.
I'm sure you could go on. Why is Luke so attached to Obi-Wan, when he knew him for the better part of a day? Why did they set up Boba Fett as a badass, and then completely blueball the audience on any kind of showdown? The movies are absolutely filled with things like this, that people are just okay with.

All derangement about RLM can be traced back to zoomers upset about the Plinkett reviews that insulted the Star Wars prequels.
>>
>>216481913
zoomers unironically think that plinkett solely created prequel hate instead of just tapping into the hate that existed for a decade by that point

Nah believing something and having excitement for it doesn't guarantee talent. Not everyone can make a movie, just like not everyone can play professional basketball.

>All derangement about RLM can be traced back to zoomers upset about the Plinkett reviews that insulted the Star Wars prequels

>>216481979
there was much more balanced disagreement before that point. The Plinkett reviews became this really obnoxious way to silence dissent, for years after the fact.
A lot of people also got swayed by what are frankly dishonest or arbitrary arguments, like Mike's weird insistence that Star Wars can only ever be about rebels fighting an empire, when that's just not correct.

Yes, the reason why DEI/Woke is bad is that:

1. It goes against reality
2. You aren't hiring the right people for the job.

If your production is pro DEI, that means you've hired people that are outright liars, or incompetent people that shouldn't be there.

Pretending people unanimously hated them, when they objectively did well, especially with kids, is completely dishonest.

Mike was right in the prequals were pretty fucking shit. But all of his suggestions were fucking trash. As was his retard grasp of the simple plot.
>>
>>216482295
It was never true that everyone hated them. They were quite well liked by regular people, some of whom weren't even kids. Prequel branded stuff continued to turn a profit for years.
There was always that one guy, refusing to play Star Wars Battlefront or something, because "I only like the old movies, blah blah blah!", but everyone else was ignoring that guy and having fun.

>>216482476
As someone who enjoys the games, comics and cartoons set during the PT era I've gotta say I hate it when prequeltards use that as a justification for the prequels being liked or good. If anything it's an ever blacker mark against the prequels that it turned out this way.

You can do that, but they obviously did. I was in fact a child in that era.

No child liked them. You're a marketing goon trying to turn public opinion around on Star Wars.
>>

so...you are biased towards liking the prequels because you were a kid back then...but also think this proves that "everyone liked the prequels"...interesting
>>
>>216482632
Star Wars movies are supposed to be for kids, bro. If kids like them, then they're doing something right.
I'm not saying the prequels aren't highly flawed in retrospect, but you expect them to live up to an unreasonable standard of quality, and that is mostly rooted in your inflated perception of the originals, due to your own childhood nostalgia.
>>

I don't accept that they are shit. I'd say they were flawed, but there's still enough quality there, that people feel a draw toward them.

If you were playing games purely for the gameplay, you probably weren't playing SW licensed games, as your first choice. The SW universe is itself a draw, and you have to have at least some regard for the prequels to want to play a game all about clones.
>>
The prequels being shit and RLM correctly pointing that out doesn't put them above criticism. They need to be held accountable for what they've done.

This analysis all falls in a hole because season 1 of Mandalorian was perfect.

It really wasn't. It just benefited massively from everyones expectations being brutally beaten down for years.

People feel a draw towards the prequel movies because of it basically being a "so bad it's good" type of thing where they cream themselves every time a character says one of the meme lines. It's The Room Effect, or the Neil Breen Effect. Otherwise people just feel an affinity towards the games tangentially related to the prequels because they came out in a time when licensed games could be good occasionally with there being plenty for Star Wars on the PS2.
>>
>>216482786
nah, I played battlefront because it was a less autistic Battlefield with single player campaign. It being a SW game didn't affect me at all, maybe someone else was.

>>216482995
>People feel a draw towards the prequel movies because of it basically being a "so bad it's good" type of thing
No, it's because they are at least in part really awesome movies. The visual designs, the action sequences, and the sound tracks are like crack cocaine when you're a child, and I still enjoy them now. I could sit down and watch the Podrace sequence or the Darth Maul fight right now, and have loads of fun doing it.

The overall plot of the trilogy gets you where you need to go. You see Anakin's life fall apart as the Empire rises. It's fine. It could have been a lot better. I genuinely do empathise with Anakin, especially with everything regarding his mother. Palpatine is just generally really fun as a villain.
Places where it falls down more would be the character of Padme who sucks, and the character of Dooku which was a complete waste of Christopher Lee, and who should have had a major presence in all three movies.

The Disney Sequels were everything Mike Stoklasa suggested, even down to hiring JJ Abrams.

I wonder if this is the schizo that's obsessively making threads about rlm for years.
>>
>>216481793
They're still the best option in a terrible scenario. At least with RLM I know they won't bullshit me, try to promote some soulless product or sellout to another channel. Mike may not give a shit about cinema anymore but at least he's not above laughing at stuff that deserves to be be mocked. Even Jay who I often disagree with more so, I can at least see where he's coming from. Everyone else on YouTube is either a soulless bugman (Stuckman) or simply lack the ability to give an honest opinion because of their sponsors. The worst RLM ever did was replace Mike with Rich for the Bill and Ted review and allowed a murderer and the son of a murderer on their show. I've been watching them for over a decade now, so I'm probably not going to stop until one of them dies or they sell the business.
>>
>>216483212
Too coherent. The RLM schizos of olde are all but myth now, cast out of their group homes, their youtube channels stuck down.

>>216483359
>At least with RLM I know they won't bullshit me
Anon, Mike Stoklasa bullshits all the time.

He shill for Nepo Babies and shills shitty movies just because he agrees with the shitty message (see all the woke movies he’s shilled). Or all the times he shilled for Disney Star Wars just to be Woke (like when he shilled for Star Wars Acolyte and called everyone who hated the show racist for criticizing it).

Not to mention Mike going back on his opinions on Max Landis’s movies after Max Landis came onto the show (Mike even saying he liked American Ultra after the interview with Max)


I get you are an NPC RLM fanboy who can’t think for yourself (or visualize an Apple internally) and thus needs Mike “The Not Gays” Stoklasa to tell you everything to believe but come on.

I get you grew up on Red Letter Media and can’t admit they are shit but grow up.


Next you are gonna say Space Cop was mean to be bad on purpose.

Sigh.

>>216484466
RLM has been shit for a decade now. They just also happen to be really lucky that the only people that care deeply about this are incredibly low IQ schizos who can't take advantage of how shit RLM has become to springboard off into massive personally success. But legends tell that one day "he" will emerge the Low IQ schizo who can make a video that isn't ear rape, the Gilsatz Hadechrist.

Mike somehow had enough money to buy that warehouse even before half in the bag and the patreon money. so he either inherited a bunch of money of had some other business before or both.

the brand of star wars was still well liked before disney bought it. as bad as the prequel movies were, good star wars games kept getting made right up until disney got involved then everything got as bad as the movies themselves.

Plinkett doesn't even mention The Force Awakens in The Star Wars Awakens does he? I forgot those reviews even existed. I only remembered the half in the bags.
>>
>>216486212
he barely talks about the plot of force awakens because he said it didnt really matter. which was a really strange hand wave people gave towards force awakens when it came out. you can say the plot of anything doesnt matter by the same logic

Shatner commented negatively on a parody they did making fun of trend-chasing nerds, without knowing it was parody. I think RLM had a good laugh over it, nothing else came of it.
>>
>>216486555
no, the central points mike makes about the prequels are:
1. they relied on special effects way too much to the point of not even having real sets anymore. these were basically the movies that started the horrible cgi trend we are still in
2. the dialogue/acting throughout most of the prequels is god awful. Lucas needs way more involvement from other talented people to make his shit work, and he had free reign in the prequels which shows
3. anakin being "the chosen one" space jesus was a truely stupid decision that ultimately doomed the whole trilogy. there was nothing about darth vader being the key to the whole force in the original movie, people just loved his character so the retarded backstory was overblown

now they say "end stage capitalism"

the fuck's that even mean
>>
>>216487606
Like their foretold climate apocalypse, somehow it just never happens. how odd!
>>
>>216487606
whats always been so stupid about the term "late stage capitalism" is that its implying capitalism is about to completely collapse. which A. isnt true and B. would only be replaced by dystopian anarchy or a complete dictatorship with full state ownership of everything, neither of which are an improvement on the free market of capitalism
>>
>>216487612
The idea behind both terms is that economic systems function differently as they progress.
Modern use of the term "late stage capitalism" calls to attention the shift from production jobs to service jobs. Think of how many people you know who's career is to make something, instead of just provide a service.

"End stage" calls to attention the rapid globalization and homogenization of corporate entities and the consolidation of wealth. Implying that the system is nearing collapse (it isn't)

The force awakens one is pretty boring but the last Jedi one is top tier. He’s definitely soft on tfa but absolutely shits on rian Johnson. The rise of skywalker hitb also just spends the whole time calling it a mess with Mike basically just saying he liked watching sheev be silly.
Imo the most embarrassing take of theirs re the prequels is Jay’s staunch defending of daisy riddler

Iirc the last Jedi one ends with him being like “who cares about this shit anymore just stop watching these shitty movies and they’ll stop making them.”

>>216488824
because they didn't need to, they had an hour long video breaking down everything they thought was wrong with it. I see autists demanding years later that they have to make a plinkett video because it means like liked it if they don't, I'm not sure what's left for a plinkett video to criticise that they didn't already cover.
