The really sad part is that he felt the need to create a 1 hour excerpt from a 2 hour review as its own video. His original video is titled

I don't even know how to respond to this level of stupid.
>>
>>220815942
On the web it is controversial to state that filmmaking pioneer George Lucas probably knows what he's doing better than his most talented critic, Mike Stoklasa; director of Space Cop, who has great insights like "why is The Trade Federation mad about taxation of their trade routes," "why are characters not talking like they're in a modern tongue-in cheek popcorn flick" and "this movie isn't following a conventional 80's blockbuster formula"

>My review of their review is, in many ways, a review of the review they reviewed. When I reviewed their review, I found that their review reviewed the subject in a way that invited further review, which is why my review reviews their review rather than merely reviewing the subject itself. The review they wrote was a review, and my review of their review reviews how effectively that review functioned as a review. Therefore, this review of their review is primarily a review of the review within their review, making my review of their review a review that reviews a review through the act of reviewing that review.

The complete opposite for me. BOTW is the only series of theirs I can actually watch and rewatch in full.

>>220817116
There's a bizarre kind of continuity to BOTW. I recommend starting with episode 1, especially since it's only about 30 minutes to begin with. There are a few BOTW that I skip as I rewatch the series on repeat to fall asleep to, and they're mostly a few newer episodes where Rich Evans is being a little cunt.
But yeah, if you start at the beginning you'll be able to build up to the longer episodes.

I think younger generations are really conditioned to never say that something sucks ass, and think that trashing something is like, offensive in some way. There was a lot more media like Plinkett in the old days that really made a meal out of shit-talking something. They are so coddled by gentle, mealy-mouthed, qualified, "this is just my opinion" media that they can't fathom saying that something sucks major donkey dick. They're faggots, in other words. Pretty sure the only reason Marvel was popular for so long is because if you called it a heap of shit you'd get dogpiled by fanboys and banned

Can someone explain why prequel defenders constantly act like the Plinkett Reviews are this boogeyman that are the only reason people hate the prequels? I've never seen this behavior with any other fandom. It's not like people are claiming the only reason people hate LJN Nintendo games is because of the AVGN. You don't see people claiming the only reason people don't like Batman and Robin is because of the Nostalgia Critic. Or that the only reason people don't like Rob Leifeild's comics are because of AT4W. It comes off as the most insecure people in the world getting butthurt that a singular review came out and just laid out common criticisms for the Prequels. Is it just because it is an easy way to deflect criticism? As if saying you like a review means that your opinion is somehow invalidated?

>>220819427
so the thing is the plinkett reviews were a mockery of actual retards running around claiming george lucas destroyed their childhoods. mind you these were gen xers who were in their 20s now and had to come to terms with being manchildren. the rlm crew is also in this category but turned it to comedy. idiots online watched the reviews and decided the points made were spot-on criticism for the films and ran with it, parroting the videos on pretty much every social media website and internet forum available where star wars was talked about. the main reason prequel lads act like they're vampires and the reviews are crucifixes is because when the movies initially released, the discussion surrounding the prequels were much more level-headed; i.e. jar jar was annoying but maul and podracing was cool so overall the film was alright, not JAR-JAR IS A FUCKING NIGGER AND IF YOU LIKED HIM YOU'RE A NIGGER LOVER GEORGE WHY DID YOU RAPE ME

basically it was just the internet doing what it does best, destroying things people hold sacred.

Prequels are flawed, yet incredibly ambitious films, that fail on many levels, while completly succeeding on others, that deserve the respect at least for trying to create real modern epic and for ironically being the biggest independent films in history.
Plinkett reviews miss some of that, because Mike is a guy really keen on structure of the story, but they are good 101 guide on how to understand some things about basic screenwriting and they're fine exploration of why prequels fail to achive all of their goals, while also being really funny and encouraging whole generation of people to share their opinions on the internet forum.
Rick Worley films are a bit meandring, but have some really interesting insights. My favorite parts are listing of all visual references to other movies in Star Wars and that segment about the history how artist often continue changing their already existing works for their whole lives.
I like them all.

We understand if you watched the prequels when you were 8 on DVD while eating McDonalds and your parents were out for the night. I'm sure it was a very special memory
>>
>>220819427
The guy goes into it in the video, but most anti-prequel videos just parrot the plinkett review. Even bad arguements like "Quai gon jin sucks because my friends can't describe his character in a sentence" get repeated with 0 introspection. Most people are NPCs so they don't even like or dislike anything on it's own merits and flaws but judging by what they've watched online. I think the Chris Stuckman one he rags on in the video is the worst since he has multiple arguments lifted from the Plinkett one that weren't good to begin with that he repeats verbatim.
RLM guys say it's ridiculous to say that Disney got JJ Abrams to make SW because of them, but in a sort of domino falling / avalanche fashion they did give the argument that George Lucas shouldn't be the one to make future Star Wars movies a lot of ammo.

The Plinkett reviews make very good points. I notice people that shit on them only ever mention the few "flawed" arguments that come more subjective areas or a confusion on some plot elements that frankly are bad even if you do understand them (i.e. the blockade). Qui-gon still makes retarded decisions throughout the film particularly on Tatoonie. The battles lack emotional weight. The ending has too many plot elements that could have been reduced or cut down significantly. Most of the characters are defined by their roles rather than their individual personalities, even people claiming they can give descriptions of the prequel characters still lean into their actions rather than their traits. Sorry but even if the RLM reviews do have flaws the number of legitimate arguments outweigh the bad ones. Hell their are prequel apologists that even have to admit that RLM had good points even if they personally hated those reviews like Sheev Talks.

>>220820361
>RLM guys say it's ridiculous to say that Disney got JJ Abrams to make SW because of them
Because it is, yes. Do you fuckers really not remember the 2000s and 2010s? Abrams was fucking everywhere, and the prevailing sentiment in the wake of his Star Trek--including among those that liked it--was that he was too captured by Spielberg and seemed like he'd rather be making Star Wars. He was an obvious choice to direct, even if you dislike his directing (so was Johnson, really, though less so). Even in retrospect he was the most obvious choice.
>they did give the argument that George Lucas shouldn't be the one to make future Star Wars movies
Lucas didn't want to make future Star Wars movies anyway.

Why is this a bad plot element?
>>
>>220819427
Because the first 10 years of the World Wide Web is semi-lost media at this point. Things like the 1999 Ain't It Cool News talkbacks (where 'George Lucas raped my childhood' originated) can't easily be linked to and cited on Wikipedia, so they may as well not exist. The modern internet's memory only goes back to 2008 or so, and even that period is starting to fade out.
>>
>>220821644
A character making stupid decisions is not bad writing. Are you saying characters must always be intelligent? What a retarded perspective. This is not a good criticism.

The conflicts are laid out and work pretty well, especially considering it's a family movie. The Naboo-Gungan rivalry is interesting, fleshes outnthe world and its resolution contains a nice message.

The 'ending has too many plot points' is another retarded, dishonest criticism. Plinkett used DVD bonus footage of a test screening of a rough cut and parroted what George Lucas himself identified as problems. No one saw that rough cut, and extrapolating normal post production to justify your hate for a movie is another example or dishonest, retarded criticism. The final movie had a single conflict going on at once, showing different perspectives since they related to each other (especially the space battle disabling the droids affecting the land battle below), and not once was it difficult to follow. The lightsabre fight is very well done. You can claim Alec Guinness vs David Prowse is better if you want, but that comes down to personal taste at best.

The prequel characters can be described, and that's a simple fact. You trying to defend one of the worst parts of the Plinkett review doesn't change that.
>>
>>220821843
He had some loose ideas, but you're failing to contextualize the chronology. It's not an accident that Lucas greenlit more Star Wars movies at the same time he was deciding to sell the company. He never wanted to make them himself; he wanted to retire. He just understood that Lucasfilm was not thriving and needed an injection.

He (supposedly) considered making Episode VII himself before selling to try to pump up Lucasfilm's value and get things on track, but that's about it. He didn't care about sequels.

>Special editions bad because some forum poster said so 20 years ago
It's time for people to get over this shit.
>>
>>220819427
Why do you even need to ask?
It's because the made-up narrative that "RLM is the only reason anyone hates the Prequels and nobody hated them before that" is a comparatively comforting lie when pitted against the actual truth that the Prequels sucked bafflingly hard and were widely rejected by people over the age of 10 when they came out.
They literally CANNOT accept that these movies aren't very good OR very popular. So they instead opt for a false but apparently more palatable narrative based on patent lies and reality-demial. Boogeyman narratives are easier to swallow than complex and nuanced truths.
>>
>>220819427
There was legitimately a space of about five to ten years, where if anyone tried to say anything remotely positive about the prequels, people would laugh and tell them to watch the Plinkett reviews. That's why.
There's even old Razorfist and Moviebob videos you can find where they're like "I don't give a fuck. Stop telling me to watch the Plinkett reviews".

>Are you saying characters must always be intelligent?
When a character keeps making stupid fucking decisons after stupid fucking decision that actively goes against their main goals that isn't realistic. It's infuriating that not only does Qui-gon keep making stupid decisions but they somehow all work out for him.
>Naboo-Gungan rivalry is interesting
It's honestly pointless and resolved with like absolutely no work
>The 'ending has too many plot points' is another retarded, dishonest criticism.
The ending could have easily been compacted to have the gungan ground battle take place just outside the city. You could cut out the space battle or the palace chase as both essentially complete the same goal. Those two extremely minor changes at least condense the ending to be a far less jumbled mess. It's still tonal whiplash to go from Jar Jar hollering like an idiot on the battleground sucking all tension from that battle to Qui-gon dying.
>The prequel characters can be described, and that's a simple fact.
By describing their actions, not their actual individual traits. That's the problem. The characters are integrally defined by their positions in the narrative rather than who they are as people. People can say Padme is caring because she wants to save her people but that caring attitude only exists to placate a plot point.

>Why is this a bad plot element?
The Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo is stupid and I'm sick of people trying to use the "opening crawl" as a defense for it. How does blockading a planet remove taxes from trade routes? Naboo has no sway on the Galactic Senate seeing as they are unable to get the Republic to stop the blockade or even believe the subsequent invasion. (Also weird how it's legal for members of the same government to blockade eachother). Naboo isn't negatively harmed by the blockade so it isn't a good candidate for showing off the Federation's power. The only explanation I ever get from fans is that "Sheev made them do it," which is stupid since Sheev is dependent on the Federation's resources not the other way around. The film pretends Sheev has massive leverage on the Trade Federation but we are never given any reason why they would trust Sheev enough to follow this dumb plan. You would think that a massive monopolistic corporation with it's own droid army would have at least a dozen other options to convince the republic to rescind taxation of their trade routes. They could raise prices to make up for deficit and tell anyone upset with the prices to take it up with the republic. They could lobby the senate to remove the taxes, We are shown the Trade Federation has enough sway to hold off an investigation into the invasion, yet for some reason can't get taxes overturned. Or, and I know this sounds crazy, maybe they could refuse to pay the republic any taxes. The Republic has no army to enforce its will, so why even bother paying the taxes at all? Save us an entire movie and get to the clone wars already. There's no problem that the events of the film are incited by tax disputes but to try and dispute these taxes with a blockade is asinine.

The best changes are so trivial they pale in comparison to the rest, and even then I doubt we'd even agree on whatever six "good changes" you consider unassailable. The most prominent changes are the most deleterious, and the rest are trivial. The Special Editions are almost entirely shit.

Yes, "The Special Editions are GOOD, actually" is quite a hot take even among other retarded opinions, Lucas-cultist. So if you're unironically going to defend them and call people "stupid" or shit like that for shitting on them, you better have a pretty impressive argument prepared.

So why is it legal? Why does the Republic's constitution allow for its members to legally blockade eachother? That would be like Georgia having the right to blockade Florida.
>Naboo isn't negatively harmed by the blockade, Based on what?
The fact we never see a single negative impact from it. No one is poor on the street unable to eat because of supply chain issues. The capitol is pristine without any sort of protest. Naboo isn't a industrial planet and doesn't seem to have any supply issues. So no the planet isn't effected by the blockade just because the characters say so.
>>
>>220822285
Maybe if it weren't obvious that the original music were diagetic. Of course Yubnub would not suit the footage spliced in to establish the galaxy-wide celebrations, but that footage is all conspicuously awkward anyway, so I'd happily take Yubnub over that. It feels like a fan edit in the worst way.

What tells us it IS negatively harmed by the blockade? Nothing. That's why you might suggest to the junior filmmaker you make some sort of scene that gives us some insight into the plight of the people.
Then again Lucas thought it made sense to have his boy rapist monks kidnap a child and leave his mother in slavery, where she somehow remains for a fucking decade without anyone intervening until she can be raped by sand people. Maybe that little inconsistency was too subtle for you, or maybe the autism squad has a whole 400 page headcanon ready to justify why that piece of dogshit writing was actually a stroke of genius.

I didn't say that, though. I think the debate about preservation is more complex than you're letting on, but it's largely irrelevant here. No doubt if Lucas had released the theatrical cuts it would have ameliorated the handwringing over the Special Editions, but that has no bearing on whether the Special Editions are themselves good or bad, and they are quite bad.

Parties like the trade federation obviously would obviously want to resist banning it. They apparently won out. It's unclear to me how the republic would even enforce that since they don't seem to have much of a military.
> So no the planet isn't effected by the blockade just because the characters say so.
So it's your headcanon? Naboo must be immune to trade blockades because we don't instantly see people starving inside the royal palace the second one happens.

You think the Trade Federation existed back during the start of the Republic and instituted that the Republic's constitution allow for its members to blockade one another?

>Hur dur your making things up about the blockade
The blockade has no visible effect on Naboo that is literall how the movie presents it. Sorry but no if the movie can't bother to show it's effects than the blockade has none.
>>
>>220822906
it wouldn't even have been difficult to make the blockade seem like it mattered, there's this one maguffin space resource specific to naboo that they export, or don't have but rely on and need constantly imported, it would take literally a couple of sentences in the opening crawl to establish the planet was in imminent trouble.

but yeah there's this trade embargo so lets send some jedi instead of actual trade negotiators because???

No, I needed a single scene. It says so in the post you're replying to. Somehow you managed to confuse that with another sentence talking about the problem of Lucas leaving Anakin's mother in slavery for a decade to be raped. Presumably your inability to parse a handful of sentence is indicative of the level of stupidity you need to hold your opinions and to be a prequel defender. Thanks for clearing that up.

It's only the most foundational setting in the Star Wars movies, clearly it's unreasonable to expect an autistic fan defending Lucas remaking of the scene set in the very same location, to know what the fuck the place is called.

Sorry Broheim, but George "Faster/More intense" Lucas has long been known to be really really bad at directing actor performances.

>>
>>220822906
>You think the Trade Federation existed back during the start of the Republic and instituted that the Republic's constitution allow for its members to blockade one another?
Parties like it surely did. It's shown throughout the prequels that the republic is weak and that power is decentralized. That limits how much it can regulate its members. The republic apparently found allowing factions to protest taxation using blockades preferable to the effort it'd take to reign them in, which could lead to them leaving the republic or possibly even civil war.
Now obviously, having your allies blockade each other is not ideal, so if the republic isn't able to resolve these disputes quickly, or if they escalate, it'd lead to a loss of confidence in its leadership, or centralization of power. Which is what we see play out in the films.
>if the movie can't bother to show it's effects than the blockade has none.
George didn't invent trade blockades. It's not my headcanon that blocking trade harms the economy, that's basic real world knowledge. We don't need the film to explain this to us.
>>
>>220823397
>blocking trade harms the economy
Not if your nation is completely self sufficient and that's what Naboo's is or at the very least appears to be. The fact the gungans are doing just fine shows trade doesn't matter when it comes to just managing a population on the planet.
>>
>>220823397
A Republic literally requires its members to curtail to a central authority. There is no way one would ever give that much military autonomy to one of its members. Look up literally any historical republic and it's member states were never given authority to actively fuck one another's economies in such a direct manner. It literally defeats the point of a Republic in the first place.

Is this stated anywhere?
>or at the very least appears to be
Because the palace is doing fine? Maybe Naboo is largely self sufficient. I don't know. That's not the same as them not being impacted at all. You're writing about this like we'd expect to see an apocalypse, but it's perfectly possible for parts, especially the parts we see, to appear more or less normal.
But how about this. Why would you block the trade of a planet that somehow has neither exports nor imports? Does the fact that blockade trade not imply that there was trade before? Is this not textual evidence that a blockade would have an impact?
>>220823565
Different political systems have had various degrees of centralization and correspondingly different degrees of members fucking with each other. I don't think it's unreasonable that a republic that tries to cover an entire galaxy would have to make larger concessions to it's members.
>There is no way one would ever give that much military autonomy to one of its members.
They'd certainly start building a centralized army of their own if a member using it for invasions!

You do realize that we have actual studies and data from before the RLM reviews came out that people did like the prequels, right? This gaslighting that they were universally hated by everyone and not just the Gen-X freaks creeps and losers that would later go on to have a meltie about them is so funny.

I'm going to be honest prequel memes were never funny, and were always reddit. The joke is, it's stupid but half of them forgot that was the joke.

The first summary of TFA on the entire internet was the Plinkett reviews and those came out years before Disney even bought Lucasfilm. You are gaslighting yourself to not see the direct influence. It's almost a direct 1-to-1. The Prequels still suck, but Mike's ideas sucked harder. It's fucking hilarious you conflate hating RLM with Prequel defense because it completely gives the game away. You wouldn't do it unless you noticed the Sequels line up with everything Mike suggested the Prequels should have done. You never consider for a second maybe Mike was a shit critic and his filmmaking skills are subpar, hence Spacecop. There are good criticisms of the Prequels just not from Mike. You want to know how to spot an actual Prequelfag? If they attack Chris Stuckmann (like the OP), not RLM. Christ Basedmann made an actual movie, not some lame self-aware garbage that has the shield of being bad on purpose. Stuckmann is a filmmaker, not some lowbrow fag who can only bring down others. Stickmann ACTUALLY shits on what's wrong with the Prequels and committed to his ideas hard enough to see them put on film. RLM got all his ideas adapted in the Sequels and runs away from those ideas so obviously mirroring his own thoughts in those reviews that he's reverted to telling people not to take Star Wars so seriously and to worry about starving blacks in Africa or some shit instead. Stuckmann won. Fuck Mike. Star Wars has been Stuckmanized.

they said starving children in africa and then both him and rich burst out laughing because it's obviously a retarded statement not to be taken seriously. the schizo takes everything at face value and thinks they're being genuine, you can't talk about nuwars because there are starving children in africa, that is rlm's official stance.

it was in the acolyte video where they said it's really not worth wasting your time watching, this is proof in the schizos mind that they're paid disney shills.

sure thing little fella, it wasn't because abram's stock was through the roof after over a decade of massively succesful tv shows and movies as a writer/director/producer, it's because the youtuber schlub from wisconsin gave disney his seal of approval.
>>
>>220825773
Oh no, I think Mike should own the fact that having JJ Abrams direct the sequels was his idea.
I think Mike should own the fact that his ideas destroyed the Star Wars brand shortly after Disney bought it.
It's impressive really, how much power Mike has!
>>
>>220825773
Yeah that's how it works. Disney bought star wars, they had a ton of internal meetings about what to do with it and move forward, among those meetings they discussed fans wants, interests, and of course the plinkett reviews were used as a form of reference.

It's not some grandiose mythological notion, it's pretty basic.
>>
>>220825832
So why do RLM never really have anything bad to say about the Disney films?
>>
>>220825858
They do? Force awakens was touted as boring which it was, but that's fine for a set up movie. Last Jedi literally ruined the entire trilogy and was universally shit on by everyone. Rise of Skywalker was unsalvageable mess because rian johnson fucked the entire series up beyond repair.
RLM has said the same about all 3 of these movies.

>Prequels sucked bafflingly hard
Nta, and I agree with your post. This was the broad sentiment at the time, even among the younger audience. I'm the same age as the actor who played kid Anikin, the movies were made for me. Baffling is a good word for them. I saw the original trilogy's theatrical releases on VHS at home, pretty much everyone had, and the originals held up. They were exciting and emotional. I saw The Phantom Menace in theaters and even at that age, I can remember walking out of the theater kind of disappointed and perplexed. Pod racing was cool, the droids were cool, but Anikin was pouty, whiny and annoying while Jar Jar and the rest of the Gungans gave me the ick. It was probably the first time I was ever disappointed by a film. By the time the clone wars came out everyone was going to see it only ironically, to see how bad it could possibly be. Clone Wars had it's apologists but the general consensus was that it was going to be laughably awful and it was. By the time Revenge of the Sith came out, most people weren't going to see it other than diehard apologists who thought that it could save the trilogy and people watching it ironically or people who could enjoy it despite it's glaring flaws. I think how bad the prequels are is overblown by obsessed original trilogy fanboys. They're nothing to be enraged about but they aren't good. The Plinkett review is emotionally hyperbolic for comedic effect but the criticisms are fair and it's just restating conversations everyone was having after walking out of the theater but in an exaggerated tone. The Prequel Trilogy was more fun to criticize than it was to watch, though most people criticizing it outside of the internet did so in a more baffled tone. Walking out of the theatre you'd probably be smiling saying what the heck was all that nonsense. Plinkett was a parody of the hardcore star wars fans but now everyone who criticizes the prequels is equated to the character to deflect criticism.

No they don’t. Their stance on Star Wars is that you already know if you’re going to watch it or not. They even made a huge point of this saying it’s slop who’s fans are akin to cultists at a political rally over a montage of goycattle consumers at conventions.

Yeah everyone was seemingly in agreement that force awakens was boring and kind of shitty but it was fine for an establishing step up movie that was just a retelling of a new hope. Plenty to build off of.
But then they changed directors for no reason and gave it to the rian johnson guy who just decided to ruin everything, not sure if out of malice or incompetence. Seems like malice since he went out of his way to do the whole subvervice meme. He fucked it up so bad that there was no hope to fix it even with going back to JJ.

Twitter blasted my TL full of Star Wars shit for a few days a couple of weeks ago, so I can speak on this a bit.

Basically prequelfags started pushing this narrative that prequel hate was "caused" by RLM as if everyone just copied their takes and decided the prequels were bad based on that.
Then there was pushback to that because obviously people disliked the prequels immediately after release and RLM got popular simply because they put into words why
(i never watched their shit btw)

That being said I did find the whole trade route meme pretty fucking funny (pic related) because it came up during that Strait of Hormuz Trump-Iran drama, apparently RLM tore into the movies for that plotline?
>>
>>220826944
I'm "not a retard" so I can speak on this a bit.
There are kids who grew up having no idea people disliked the prequels until the RLM reviews.
