>Rich defends the Special Edition changes >Mike unironically watches YouTube AI Star Wars fanmade videos George finally broke them...
Jays dreams of retiring to San Fran and joining the scene there have all gone up in flames. It's sad.
>>223018021Nobody cares about your redditor e-friends
>>223018021Mike Stoklasa shilling Ai and wanting to use Ai to special edition the original Star Trek show is retarded. Stoklasa belongs in a retirement home.
>>223018021Can we stop pretending that RedLetterMedia was ever good now?
Lucas raped my childhood but Disney gets a pass
>>223018021>Mike unironically watches YouTube AI Star Wars fanmade videosDid Mike become Indian?
>>223018466He’s just old. Old people love Ai and see it as magic.
>it's okay when star trek does it!
The Sequels really were the best things that could've happened for George. There's never been a cleaner comparison between "bizarre, questionably executed, but passionate" and "safe, corp-competent, but boring."
the cloud city windows are unironically fine
>>223018021>Rich being unfathomably based again
>>223018021Rich was just being his usual contrarian self about Star WarsEveryone else also hates the special edition CGI? Well, as a special snowflake, I don't care about that at all. I care about the changes to story beats, like... uhh.... Han Solo meeting Jabba
>>223018774>passionateLet's not rewrite history
>>223018802Mike's right tabout the clusterphobic feeling though
>>223018413>>223018424>samefagging on cooldown
>>223018693>Pic1000% people are just posting that to be contrary for the sake of being contrary. That's it. The prequels still suck. Deal with it.
>>223018021>watches YouTube AI Star Wars fanmade videosBut those are better than Disney.
>>223018021Rich defends the genuine visual improvements over the originals which those without severe George derangement syndrome tend to agree with.Mike on the other hand is genuinely losing it which is especially funny coming from the guy who found early cgi so distasteful.
>>223018021there's nothing inherently wrong with the special editions. all sorts of films have been rereleased and remastered and there isn't even really one "definitive, original" version of star warssome of the changes were bad, some of the changes were good
>>223019495>Rich >without severe George derangement syndromeDo you remember his comment on Luke's supposed (because he made it up) behavior in RoTJ? "A creepy emotionless priest guy"? They all lost it a long time ago.
>>223019792Mark Hamil is just a bad actor. The "I'm with you too" line was delivered like he was still farmboy Luke and not a Jedi Knight ready to face his destiny.
>>223020039No, Rich. Hamil might be a mediocre actor, but he delivered what he was supposed to deliver there. It's just your brain being fucked up by diabetes, Lucas Derangement SYndrome and a binding pact with Disney.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQKfF9n0v-U&t=5625s
>>223018413>>223018413So you watched 2 hours of a YouTube show that you don't like and then you went to 4chan to lie about it?
>>223019229Mike...
>>223018774They're also the worst thing that could've happened to Mike. Before even people who didn't agree with his takes thought he was just principled and had very high standards (let's ignore his passionate adoration of Star Trek 2009, which was more like a 2009/11 for that franchise). Afterwards it became clear that he had no standards or principles or even taste, he just really hated this one thing because that was the standard opinion in his friend circle back in the early 2000s.
>>223021584The idea with Mike was that he could do snarky takedowns of popular media. When he repeatedly and consistently failed to do so people lost interest.
>>223021805Late 00s - early 10s was an era of insufferable morons who genuinely believed that criticism, mockery, nitpicking and people making clowns of themselves are signs of dangerously high IQ.AVGN, Spoony, Plinkett, NostalgiaC ritic, etc.
>>223021882Pretty much and the plinkett reviews were part of that. That copypasta did get right that it was an extension of the ironic gen-x ethos. It's why the pulling away the curtain to show him as just some dumbass hiding behind irony hurt so much.
>>223021905>>223021882>>223021805>>223021584but in the most recent plinkett review he admits that the prequels were at least soulful it's not like he considers them to be completely without merit like the sequels
>>223018021it's treason then
>>223021948>admitsWeasel words. Call someone a holocaust "denier" next.
>>223018774I wouldn't call the sequels corp-competent. Who the hell plans a trilogy with alternating directors and no roadmap of the story?
>>223021269>please please please watch my hour and 43 minute long "reacts to a youtube video" youtube videoholy obsessedno one cares about your turd secondary channel
>>223018774>safe, corp-competentWhat was competent about the sequels?George at least knew what the purpose of the prequel trilogy was, tell the fall of the republic and the rise of vader, and make a shitzillion dollarsDisney just came up with a random woman to be the protagonist and said, "Eh, we'll figure it out as we go along" Its a lesson in corporate incompetency, they assumed they could sit on an IP and get mega rich without even the most basic concept of a plan
>>223022066That's why I added there a time marker pointing to Rich making fool of himself, you dirty yurt dweller from Wisconsin
>>223021948RLM literally defended TFA on release and took a while to start criticizing TLJ. His "sequel hate" is gay and fake as fuck, though gayer and faker are the original Plinkett PT reviews which are abysmally dogshit and only redditards who jack off to how heckin' smart they are even like them.
Playing through Zero Company recently made me realize how fucking kino the prequel setting is. I'm tired of pretending otherwise. RLM have always been hacks with terrible taste.
>>223018021Just use ai faggots is there it works, jobs are modern slavery people should do things, specially art, because they love it
>>223018774>safe, corp-competent>hey let have Luke Skywalker try to murder Leia's sleeping kid and then replace him with a girlbossHow do you people even breathe? Is this talking point something you heard from someone so you just mindlessly repeat it?Marvel is the same shit>All-New-All-Different Marvel cataclysmicly bombed, let's adapt it for our movies!And people call it corpo safe. What part of it is safe?
>>223022166George's greatest strength was always broad beat storytellingEveryone loves the clone wars(the battles that is), the fall of the republic, order 66, etcHis weakness was always the actual details and being a coomer so he has no clue how to tell a half decent romance story
>>223021882The difference with AVGN was that Rolfe was smart enough to make it clear the butt of the joke WAS the Nerd. He always chose objectively bad games (we aren't talking "Ninja Gaiden is bad cause it's too hard" or "Yoshi's Safari is bad cause it's a nothingburger, we're talking lowest-of-the-low Atari ET/LJN/Action 52-tier) and the joke was how obsessed the Nerd was over games that really didn't matter. There really is no point in obsessing over Jeckyll and Hyde for three decades and getting alcohol poisoning when it's just a shit game.Meanwhile RLM never committed to the Plinkett concept, much like other AVGN copycats. Plinkett is portrayed as fat and has a funny voice, but all his opinions are treated as obviously correct and RLM don't throw even the slightest hint of self-deprecation or satire. Plinkett isn't the butt of the joke in the RLM reviews. Also RLM targeted films which WEREN'T objectively bad, rather what they personally hated.
>>223021882are we really at a point where we think avgn was attempting to be a high IQ critic
>>223022260>What part of it is safeThe part where all checkboxes of the requirement list made by kikes / WEF / Blackrock / ESG / whatever are marked.
>>223018021Kek is that Jay?
>>223022070>Disney just came up with a random woman to be the protagonist and said, "Eh, we'll figure it out as we go along" It's because JJ took some of the basic points from George's sequels ideas and ran with them changing absolutely everything about them and not understanding the why of things. We know from what little we can gather from his 2020 interview with Paul Duncan and early concept art for TFA that was made while George was still in the project that the protagonists would've been siblings Kira and Sam/Skyler, children of Leia and Han who'd start Ep. VII with their dad's Falcon and be ambushed by pirates in Felucia. Early on in the movie the latter would be seduced to the dark side by the Jedi Killer Darth Talon so the former would go seek help from her mom and uncle. Kira's role was transferred to Rey and the "son" and "Jedi Killer" roles were merged into one Kylo Ren. In George's sequels Luke would also be alone on an island due to the destruction of his temple, but this time around it would've been caused by Maul and Talon and he would've accepted Kira's training to try and help save their family. Story would've gone more in-depth into the Whills and Luke would've still died late in Ep. VIII. The trilogy would end with Leia becoming Grand Chancellor and restoring the Republic. Pic related is official Ep. VII concept art you can find in TFA's concept art book, clearly depicting Talon and who we now know is Maul made back when George was still around. JJ took the basics of "what if female MC" and for everything else he just created his New Hope fanfic film because he really wanted to LARP as George Lucas in the 70s.
>>223022321>Plinkett isn't the butt of the joke in the RLM reviewsThe Plinkett's reviews of SW prequels were full of jokes depicting Plinkett as a senile psycho junkie obsessed with SW, he followed the Nerd in that aspect.
>>223020039>The "I'm with you too" line was delivered like he was still farmboy Luke and not a Jedi Knight ready to face his destiny.As he should have done retard, he was shouting out warmly to his dear friends, not making a ultimatum to vader
>>223022377Tbf Lucas never committed to the Sequels. They changed way more than the rest of the films and were pretty much a pipe dream.I still believe George had some sort of mental breakdown following RotS which has lasted to this day. What he did and thought of from TCW to Archives including other shit like Kingdom of the Crystal Skull doesn't seem like him. And half the shit he says in Archives is incoherent nonsense that is easily contradicted by watching the very films, let alone reading older interviews or the commentary tracks for the films.
>>223022412Nah. Even the supposed "jokes" seem forced.AVGN videos are partly educational in the Nerd showing how the game objectively is and giving it the benefit of the doubt, partly him losing his mind over shit that really doesn't matter cause he's a virgin stuck in his basement playing games that don't deserve to be played.Plinkett makes a review for a film RLM don't like, he doesn't give it any leeway and makes a bunch of bullshit points which he pushes as if they were valid critique, then adds in a couple jokes about the character which are minor. The videos overwhelmingly lean towards "film bad" over "Plinkett bad". Whereas AVGN leans towards an equal balance of "games bad" and "Nerd bad".
>>223022412Those weren't self-deprecating, he just thought that joking about killing women was funny. Probably was funny to Jay at least since he loves watching women get tortured, raped and murdered, not necessarily in that order in movies.
Jay forced him to kneel and apologize on twitter and Patreon
>>223022642Is T-slur pussy sooooo good that you have to pretend to hate the coolest new technology to not offend them on bsky?
>>223022377Darth Talon was a babe??
Imagine being this assblasted by a youtube channel for so many years.
>>223022642I love that they're hostage to their new audience. Reap what you sow, faggots.
>>223022694Just disgust and disappointment, mike. Think about how you felt watching Phantom Menace for the first time and you know how we feel watching you become a total joke.
Remember when Millennial faggots like RLM perpetuated the idea that George Lucas "raped' their childhoods. That's what it comes do to for these clowns; they're perpetual children unable to grow up from their childish banalities.
>>223018021I'M DYING LAUREN
>>223022847>MillenialYeah, those damn 50 year old millenials that saw OT as children. You okay there zoom-zoom? Did not tire yourself out typing such a long sentence?
What really tipped me off to Mike being a hack is watching his Star Trek movies reviews after watching them all myself. With Star Wars there was always the potential that I was just blinded by nostalgia and couldn't accept genuine criticism of my favourite movies, but with Star Trek I had no real nostalgia and didn't even particularly care for the movies, but a lot of Plinkett's criticisms were just petty, deliberately misleading or just factually wrong, like those movies are the definition of fine but he acts like they're some war crime. It's just not that big of a deal.
>>223018021Ignorance is bliss
>>223022847RLM don't even think George made the original movie. He just filmed a few scenes and then a magical black woman in the editing room actually made the original series for him while getting no credit. This is honestly and truly in their heart what they believe happened with the original series.
>>223022873Your post is so transparent it's funny. George Lucas has you eternally seething and we're laughing at you.
>>223022891I love the Insurrecton review where he spends 10 minutes sperging out about some obscure prop that was in one episode like it was Luke tossing his father's lightsaber away in TLJ.
>>223018021>days without seething about fat balding midwesterners = 0
>>223022912One of the dumbest criticisms is that it was "saved" in the edit. As if George Lucas went out into a desert and shot random scenes which were magically fixed by an editor. It's so fucking stupid just on the face of it. You have to have zero understanding of how production works to actually believe this. RLM are that dumb.
>>223022990He says, while seething.
The mental illness is strong with this one.
I've got disney-paid-marketer-consensus-breaking-to-rehabilitate-the-prequel-setting fatigue
>>223022912>>223022995cope seethe dilate
>>223023136Why didnt RLM pay their own magical black woman to save Space Cop in the edit?
>>223023136You are so fucking stupid you don't even know how stupid you are. I wish you luck with your mental retardation, anon.
>>223022912>magical black woman lmao, marcia lucas isn't black you spastic.
>>223022864Thirteen years. Man how time flies when you're having fun.
>>223018283Poor faggot is gonna be found dead in the Manhole's glory hole one day
>>223023847I thought Jay edited the videos and it was him making fun of Mike with the juxtaposition, but of course it makes much more sense that Mike edited it with all the Star Trek clips etc. If he was kidding then his delivery was too deadpan, and he did seem genuinely into the AI slop Star Wars stuff, so him also wanting AI Pike isn't much of a stretch.
>>223024756THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SW AI SLOP UNLESS YOU ARE A DEMOCRAT FANGIRL FROM BLUESKY It's only about Stoklasa being a fucking hypocrite
>>223024812>THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SW AI SLOPProof?
>>223022995I don't even like some of George's choices but it's insane how he's treated. NO OTHER DIRECTOR IN HISTORY has been treated like he has, acting like he did nothing in his fucking movies. People act like Marcia was responsble for all the editing in ANH (even though she left before the movie was finished being edited), Kasdan apparently wrote the entirety of ESB (even though he mainly rewrote a bit of dialogue and George collaborated with another writer in earlier scripts which were relatively similar to the final film), and whoever fixed RotJ (or if they're particularly retarded, RotJ is "the first bad SW movie")It's just INSANE cope because these retards don't want to admit Lucas tried something different with the Prequels and now they're trying to discredit him in everything. Imagine if we got people saying Spielberg or Kubrick did nothing except shoot random bullshit in their films and it was actually [random editor #1] that "saved them in the edit". It's bonkers.>>223023136Bad bait nigger. Lucas was the one who cut the Jabba scene in the original ANH because he didn't have the technology to impose him onto the human actor at the time. This is the first CGI experiment and it looks like shit, but the later take is way better. I have some issues with the scene but it WAS intended to be in the original ANH, it wasn't created for the SE.
I lost respect for them when Mike said the only reason he hates the prequels is that he thought Lucas named the neimoidians after Leonard Nimoy as a way to insult Star Trek, rather than as a homage
>>223024901>I have some issues with the scene but it WAS intended to be in the original ANH, it wasn't created for the SE.I prefer the version with a fat guy wearing a fur coat for other reasons. It's just too strange for a mob boss to personally visit a potentially dangerous small time criminal.
child sized helmet whatever happened there
>>223018021AI is really good though
>>223018021>>Mike unironically watches YouTube AI Star Wars fanmade videosWith his own words, he's retroactively invalidated all his whining about too many CGI things flyin around in the prequels. I knew this day would come.
>>223024812>right wing is when you consoom low quality cheap slop to trigger and own the libs!Not gonna work, Rajesh. It's not about the morals, AIslop is just bad. It's digital margarine.
>>223024756>then his delivery was too deadpanMike is really only guilty of trying to add another feather to his comedy hat. It would be a shame if he now feels that he has to stick to his usual repotwah of slapstick and puns.
>>223025017>It's just too strange for a mob boss to personally visit a potentially dangerous small time criminalWhat, Tony Soprano never visited people who owed him money? It's Jabba's planet, he knows he's untouchable there. Until he isn't, of course.
>>223025133Anon, he creamed himself with TFA over a decade ago. The second he said "yeah TFA's 100% CGI 0 practical effects flashy nonsense with no plot relevance or even interesting cinematography is great, but the PT's 50% CGI 50% practical effects interesting scenes and worldbuilding are bad" is when he exposed himself as a hypocrite and cretin.>>223025167Not just the jeets with this one. Trying to make AI LE BASED RIGHT thing and make the left the ones actually doing art is such an obvious psyops to make the left look creative and the right be consoomers. For fucks' sake, conservatives have been pushing for DECADES to stop making "modern art" and go back to actual REAL art, we don't give a fuck about AIslop.
>>223025199Nobody has ever claimed that the sopranos are a good series THOUGHEVER.There's a reason it's called "The Big Bang Theory meets Smallville"
>>223025210>Anon, he creamed himself with TFA over a decade ago.

I delight in how Mike keeps digging his hole deeper. no homo
>>223018021Bauman saying suspiria remake is better than original is more embarrassing
>>223025246Is it really that surprising when his name is Bauman and the remake takes place in the communist Germany?
>>223023136But anon, Marcia fought to keep both the Biggs and Luke scenes and the Jabba scene in the movie? It was George who wanted to cut them and since George had final cut, any structural change like deleting scenes was ALWAYS George's choice to make. I'm sorry reality doesn't agree with your fanfic.
>>223025246A lot of ReViews are embarrassing and uninformed, but that one really takes the cake.
>>223025298You don't get it anon, George Lucas was sitting his fat ass in his house while the recording crew went around shooting random bullshit with no coherent structure because there was no script. Then girlboss Marcia came and fixed everything magically, but the evil George Lucas waited until she divorced him to add in scenes that make the movie worse out of spite cause he's an evil white man that hates heckin' empowered womanz.
>TFA was everything I hoped it to beThe writing was on the wall right here
>>223025360It's so funny that it took Mike making some stupid offhand comment about AI being cool for libtards to realize how dumb the Plinkett reviews are. Only took you guys 10 years to catch up to the chuds.
>>223025644Retard, I'm not a libtard and I've fucking hated RLM since the start. I've watched so many anti-Prequel reviews and every single one of them is the most retarded bullshit I've ever heard, I've read fanfiction with better writing than most "Prequel rewrites" I've seen.
Mike was visibly salivating over the Star Wars slop, he framed the bad voice over thing as a blemish on an otherwise quality 'work'. Also goddamn, what a nothing shitty video, they had nothing to say. Wonder if they realize the irony in how much they bash the newer fans, all three of them, while showing nothing but disdain for TOS.
>>223025673Sorry dude, it's hard to keep up with all the tourists coming here today to applaud how good the prequels were now that Mike outed himself. I wish we could have achievements on this board to keep track of this sort of thing.
>>223025210>Trying to make AI LE BASED RIGHT thing and make the left the ones actually doing art is such an obvious psyops to make the left look creative and the right be consoomersYou're a complete retard. The left is not creative at all, as evidenced by their reaction to the biggest creative tool ever made.Go back to plebbit.
>>223025685What AIslop is it? Not very knowledgeable on Star Wars AIslop>>223025703No worries. Tbf you can always tell libfags because they'll be sucking FIloni's cock and saying TCW fixed the Prequels. Most of them actively struggle to say the PT are good cause they're so brainwashed.
>>223022642plebbit won
>shit talk EU novels>enjoy them now that they're in a format he doesn't have to readThis guy is the biggest faker on the internet.
>>223025785This apparently.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsXvvmWy-Ew>>223025829You know, glancing at the thumbnails he probably enjoys it because they're adapting Ahsoka into it.
>>223022321I have some love for AVGN, but the amount of faggots who were convinced games or consoles he said were bad actually were bad for years, really did do damage to retro game discourse.>the only good games are Mario and Contra and anything licensed is terribleThat's literally not correct. TMNT on NES is good, and even Mike thinks it's good, but people at the time didn't get the joke.
>>223025929>WE'RE ADAPTING HEIR TO THE EMPIRE>oh btw we're also adding in the entire Rebels and TCW cast as major characters, also STslop like Crait, also stuff from Solo and Rogue One, and Thrawn is basically the one from AhsokaAI aside, why make an adaptation that shares literally nothing with the original product? It's retarded. I swear people just hear the title of Zahn books and cream themselves when they haven't even read them
>>223026064>why are fanboys behaving like fanboys i duhnt unnerstahnnnnnnnnnYou're so smart.
>>223025199I liked a fan edit of the scene, where Jabba was replaced with a drone displaying his hologram.Han is just one of hundreds of lowlifes who get on Jabba's nerves and he's not that important to make the big slug go there in person.
>>223026083I don't understand why Disney soiboys would be so obsessed with remaking the Thrawn Trilogy except with Disney crap. They have years' worth of TV series and shit to watch>>223026112Yes, that's Adywan. Dude has been stuck over a decade making his take on ESB, wonder if he'll ever make a fanedit for RotJ
>>223018021Jay already has a side business. He will be fine after RLM eventually collapses.
>>223018525theres a trek connection to slop with the ship computer and holodeck, just not anywhere close to it, despite CEOs trying to make investors believe otherwise. we dont even understand our own brains, how the hell can you make an artifical one.
>>223026306is it sucking off men in the alley behind the local kinoplex?
>>223026306There is no way that Jay is making more than a few hundred bucks a month importing cheap brasilian estrogen and selling it to runaway Milwaukee trans youths. You can't live on a side business that small.
>>223026447No, he has a call center in Philippines where workers text with simps to get them to pay for private pics of OnlyFans whores. He gets monthly fees from OF whores and a 50% commission on pics and vids sold by his Filipino salespeople.
>>223026112you dont even need to see this scene. Han says if I dont pay off Jabba The Hut im a dead man. Thats all we need till return of the jedi
>>223026447He pimps Mike out to maniacal sadists
>>223026447>>223026577I wish they would create all this funny lore for themselves while also doing their normal shows. They kinda used to do that.
When did we hit peak RLM?
>>223026621They're just not that talented enough. Say what you want about Tim Heidecker, but he knew what it meant to create longstanding lore for an ongoing web series.
>>223018021>Mike unironically watches YouTube AI Star Wars fanmade videoshe speaks of it with such wonder and interest too, I think that man lost something he truly loved and holds onto anything that mimics it no matter how fake, it's tragic honestly
>>223025644People have been making fun of them be it ironically or unironically since at least the Rick Worley videos.
>>223027050What's wrong with it? Other than Mike reaching the very peak of his private Mt. Everest of hypocrisy?
Ive been rewatching old HitB and its refreshing seeing how unshielded they are in the old days. They made edgier jokes, went out in public to cons, had a few small-time local celebrities on and actually interacted with people watching their videos. Now it feels so much more detached and sanitized. They'll only bring a guest on if they're a somewhat well known celebrity and said celebrity guests are always ALWAYS dogshit. Its kinda sad.
>>223026064This, two minutes into the video and they mention Ezra Bridger and have the ginger dude from the Jedi Fallen Order game. nu-Wars fanboys are never beating the allegations.
>>223026687if you're a chud, probably their "consume product quote". If you're a libtard you've had peak RLM the last 5 years between them going goo goo for gaga over Furiosa, the acolyte, any movie with a trans woman in it, etc basically up.until yesterday when Mike said AI was neat.
>>223027050He probably watches A.I. slop without realizing it's A.I. like 80+ year old senile boomers do on Facebook.
>>223018021Mike Stoklasa shilling Ai is pathetic. He truly is a hackfraud
>>223027219>Tranny Tracker 5000

>>223018525This
>>223024756There is no deadpan irony or joke. Mike was 100% serious about liking Ai and wanting to use Ai on old Star Trek shows. Mike Stoklasa is just upset he got called out and trying to deny he ever did wrong. It is something a lot of old people do when they have been caught doing something wrong.
>>223022348Prequelfags are so mindbroken by Mike they pretend AVGN is highbrow criticism and the Plinkett reviews influenced Hollywood
>>223025947This is a thing I get annoyed by with fans of critics, where they just simply parrot what the critic says. Even before AVGN you had people simply repeat what Seanbaby was saying about some games or history of games without thinking or checking to see if it's true. Often times the turn against a critic is when they're wrong about something so hard that most of their audience notices.That said I can't blame some like AVGN because it is like >>223022321 said that the Nerd was the butt of the joke. Even Nostalgia Critic is kind of that though sometimes less so compared to AVGN
>>223027488>yfw Mike finally gets cancelled because of A.I.
>>223027488Did Mike really not realize him and his merry gang of losers chased off everyone with a brain from his audience and the only ones left watching his show are bsky T-slurs? He really should've known better than to talk about AI at this point.
>>223027551Mikes hubris was always going to be his undoing. Up until now he's only had retards and retarded faggots coming at him. Now there's incentive for someone even moderately competent to start making observations.
>>223027540And RLMdrones are so mindbroken they think the only complaints about RLM are coming from Prequel fans
>>223027616>we wont be a channel that yells something is the worst thing ever or scream its the greatest thing ever for clicks and likes Mike does not have an objective view of his channel and the content they've been putting out for the last five years.
>>223027219its partly youtube and the nets fault as well though. they'd be smart to host the videos completely on their own site and just upload trailers to youtube, to avoid all the bullshit. get some advertisement deal and live off the paypig paterons mostly. how much does youtube really pay in comparison to 100k clicks on your own webpage? no middleman
>>223027219>Ive been rewatching old HitB and its refreshing seeing how unshielded they are in the old days. They made edgier jokes, went out in public to cons, had a few small-time local celebrities on and actually interacted with people watching their videos. Now it feels so much more detached and sanitized.EVERYTHING used to be like that back then. Smartphones and cancel culture caused the entire planet to self-censor themselves because it's you can have your life ruined over an innocuous comment now.
>>223027488>Mike Stoklasa is just upset he got called out and trying to deny he ever did wrong. It is something a lot of old people do when they have been caught doing something wrong.Mike has become Donald Trump. Even to the part of liking Ai.
>>223028359>you can have your life ruined over an innocuous comment nowname an example where this happened and it wasnt the guilty party willingly stepping down due to backlash
>>223027616Mike doesn’t realize how woke his audience is. He still thinks this is the early 2010s.
>>223028928Mike is woke and has been woke for a long time. He's just too old and stupid to keep up with the program. He's like a libshit grandpa that would've given Obama 4 terms in a row just like FDR but still gets in trouble for using some word he grew up with.
>>223028928Did someone really at some point not pull Mike aside and tell him that he's an icon in the trans community and not to dare mention that he's ever used AI in his entire life without facing a boycott?
>>223029505Mike literally has alcoholism induced dementia.
>>223030792You have never seen a man suffering from a wet brain syndrome. Stoklasa is an old, lazy fuck who barely gives a shit about what he says and when, that's his problem. Just look at this fat fuck and tell me if he looks invested in what he's doing there.
>>223030831Do you think the diagnosis is a binary where if you don't meet the clinical threshold, you're completely normal, but if you go past the threshold, you're like that guy in that old medical instruction film talking in loops not understanding a single fucking thing that's being asked by the doctor? Mike is definitely on the cognitive impairment spectrum and it's getting rapidly worse.
>>223027550The whole thing with AVGN is the early videos were basically in jokes with a particular group of friends who were all film students, and all liked old NES games, and the nerd was at least partially a parody of Mike who is known to have passionate meltdowns about games but then continue playing them anyway.All of that was lost on the audience that ended up finding them.
>>223030909>Mike is definitely on the cognitive impairment spectrum and it's getting rapidly worse.Yes, it looks like that for others when you become a lazy fuck and you're getting more and more gray hair on your head. Gradually you become a hybrid of a man and a mushroom.I have to interact with boomers in the company, they look and act like Stoklasa. They just sit, occupy space, consume oxygen, do the bare minimum and expect others to take care of all problems. Despite the fact that their position is way below the level when they could act like that. I swear the only spark of awareness in their eyes is visible only when they move their fat asses for a cigarette break.
>>223018021Hey, that one dinosaur in the background never bothered nobody!
>>223018774>The Sequels really were the best things that could've happened for GeorgeGeorge only cares about making money, do you think he gives a flying fuck if nu-Star Wars is good or bad? give your head a shake
>>223022642Maybe he just wants to be a part of star wars.
>>223018774
>>223031432But he is part of star wars? The sequel reboot ran entirely with the RLM plan and we saw that it worked out about as well as Space Cop.
>>223031489Jews are really vindictive people
>>223024901>NO OTHER DIRECTOR IN HISTORY has been treated like he has, acting like he did nothing in his fucking movies.for what it's worth, there was a period of time in the 1970s when American critics were saying that Orson Welles wasn't really the brains behind Citizen Kane, it was really the cameraman, the studio, anyone but him.
>>223022166thats why the prequels enduresure the movies themselves were kinda shit but the world they built was cool and interesting so it left a lot of room for other stuff to expand on it like tcw and video gamesthe sequels are shit movies and their setting is utter garbage so theres nothing salvageable
>>223022947They aren't millennials you fuckin retard
>prequel jeets vs boomer ai adoptersThank god this series is dead
The sequels being dogshit doesnt mean the prequels were good
>>223027266Yeah im sure he does and probably eats poop for breakfast ya gossiping harpy
I 100% guarantee the reason Mike and Rich don't rate Space Seed is because pic related.>oh no is that a woman that does something we can vaguely misconstrue as a sexism!?>I disavow!
>>223033945I'm a chud and even I think that episode is absurd and feel like it was written by the most incel of incels despite the year>Girl that spent her whole life trying to join star fleet gives everything up and betrays everything and everyone she knows because some ugly middle aged norwood 5 guy said shes cute
>>223033995>doesn't understand science fictionIt's about the romaboo meeting Caesar after studying them their whole life. What do they do when faced with the actual man, the object of their obsession? It's an interesting question and the episode's handling is nuanced.People like Mike see IS THAT A GIRL DOING A THING OH LORD HIDE MY EYES
>>223034058Except its not the actual man of her obsessionAnd no, a woman acting like a dumb foid is not interesting sci fi or writingOn top of that Khan fucking sucks as a character
>>223033894The prequels were good.
>>223029035did this bot teleport from 2016
>>223034215She's a 20th century specialist meeting a pivotal 20th century man. For her aspect of the episodes main theme she is dealing with a piece of history that's extremely close to home. You can speciously try to hand waive that to say say 'nuh uh she doesn't specifically love studying Khan' but I won't play along with that bullshit beyond this single post. There's a few real examples of some bitch just dropping everything for some total stranger in a woman moment, and they relate to Kirk. Go watch The Gamesters of Triskelion if you need a reminder of what that shit actually looks like. The episode's theme turns on the perception of history clashing with Khan the actual person. For Her as I've said, for Kirk, and for Khan himself grappling with his self and persona and how they've been taken two centuries later. The episode fires on all cylinders, it's incredibly holistic with the speculative point it's making, and that's good sci fi.
I hope they do Season 2 so I can watch Rich SEEEETHE at the ending of Bread & Circuses.
>>223034232They were not, although their premise is great
>the cage is bad because everybody was whitemike needs to retire already christ
ITT prequekers mauld over balding old men.>bbbutbut AIYou literally didn't watch the vid and merely read the comments by other ADHD zoomers. Mike was dreading what would happen if AI keeps getting better at the current trajectory. He knows it's getting better by watching newer AI output vs "older" output that were only 6 months ago. He doesn't like AI.>Rich liked the Speckled EditionsNo he didn't. He "didn't care for it" which is damning with faint praise.
>>223018021I thought we liked Ai on /tv/ unlike Reddit. RLM has really brainbroke the chuds
>>223018774evidently.
What if instead of AI someone got a few actors together on a homemade set and recorded it with a camera?
>>223034964People have made some funny shit with AI but I can't imagine watching an ai adaptation of a Star wars book with the current state of the technology
>>223034964You tranny RLM fan"girls" were the ones that said AI was bad. I'm not going to defend them after they threw their chudbase under the bus to endorse the sequels, andor, and other girlboss slop like Furiosa. They made their bed, now they get to shit in it.
what happened
Boomers love A.I
>>223035488The bus episode was fine. Heavily bus focused, but fine.
>>223035510They really do. I went to see my dad yesterday for father's day and he was watching some hour long AI generated, AI narrated video on Nepal shit without question. My elderly neighbour is also constantly watching AI narrated shit I can hear from my kitchen.
>>223022131They released a Half in the Bag opening weekend criticizing TLJ and they even apologized for praising TFA in said review
2 was shit but 1 was no worse than 64 and 5 are the only good star wars movies and the franchise is simply shit with more bad entries than good ones, its only decent through extended media franchisingMike and jay are massive faggots, Rich i will always exclude from that accusation for making Joe Quesada seethe
>>223026112yeah the scene existing isn't terrible but the idea that the most infamous crime lord of the entire galaxy leaves his hedonism dome just to talk shop with one particular smuggler he employs and kinda likes is dumb as hellIf he was just some local boss of a decent sized ring or if he sent a call or recording it's better.
>>223034871Mike, it's over, let go...
>>223035553At this point I think regulad TV brainwashing would actually be less harmful then social media company brainwashing
>>223018774Why do mutts frame everything with this "my team vs. your team" mentality? Why can't both sides be bad at once?Original Star Wars trilogy was mediocre - it was Marvel slop of its times.Prequels were bad movies.Sequels are incoherent trash.Simple as.
>>223036607You might not know this because you were probably picking flies off your dad's back in whatever favela you were born in before we made the mistake of wiring up Brazil for Internet access, but the fight over the OT vs the Prequels goes back decades. Just saying everything sucks is a cowardly thing to say if you were around for that era, so I'll just give you the benefit of the doubt and urge you to stay out of these threads in the future you stinky stupid macaque.
>>223036728Why can't you just accept they were failed movies and move on?Why is it a competition?Like how is it even a competition? Those are movies from the same franchise, they are not competing with each other, they were released at different times to different audiences.
>>223028890the maga smile kid
>>223033945its not THAT good, but i love Khan in it and i like his concept of an Übermensch. Of course he got bested by Kirk(twice), because Kirk is also a one of a kind every thousand year Leader and he is a man of the time, so he had the advantage. And it sets up the best trek movie, so its elevated by default.
>>223036849You've failed the game, tho.
>>2230356541 is a great movie and the best of the prequels, it's a fun kids' adventure and knows it whereas 2 and 3 have no clear identity
>>223018021Kneel.

>>223038047>bragging about being 50 on 4chan
What would it take for them to save face at this point? A groveling 3 hour apology to George paired with a video series dissecting and debunking the Plinkett videos. Fuck them. I've despised them ever since the Plinkett reviews came out.
>>223037960He shouldn't have been calling Mike alt-right
>>223036851who
>>223034871I don't blame /tv/ for getting mad at RLM because they don't watch the video but the people in the comments are actual retards if they think Mike supports AI.
>>223038803he is a bad actor, therefore its hard to tell if he is serious or not. its not funny either way
>>223038803I rewatched it and it really does seem like he is starting to like it. I can't tell when he is being "sarcastic" if he is being sarcastic 90% of the time. He shot and edited the episode he should have done a better job.
>>223034406Good effortposting
>>223031489Nah, Lucas bent the knee. TCW is him redoing his Prequels to "fix" what people hated. Everything he has said from TCW onwards contradicts the films but appeals to retarded faggots who hate Star Wars, I.E. the Jedi were always right and Anakin was always evil, something which the films contradict and which goes against the tragedy of the PT and the hero's journey in the OT but to mentally deficient retards like ILM it's too hard to understand that grandmaster Yoda wasn't right about everything (even when it's stated in both RotS and RotJ)
>>223022131>RLM literally defended TFA on releaseTbf that was largely the consensus on TFA, that it was just "fine" and hopefully it was laying the foundation for a good story. Turns out it wasn't and they had no plan and all the plot threads introduced in TFA were standard JJ Abrams Mystery Box (TM) bullshit
>>223040299>Nah, Lucas bent the knee. TCW is him redoing his Prequels to "fix" what people hated.Lucas added the retarded "NOOOOOOOO" line from prequels into Return of the Jedi in the 2010 edition because he was so butthurt about people making fun of it. He was doubling down on that trash right up until the very end. And TCW didn't redo or change much of anything, Anakin is a whiny psycho in that show just like he is in the movies. It's just that the moments of him being a lunatic are padded out with more banter between him and Obi-Wan, or fatherly scenes between him and his exotic alien apprentice who is never mentioned again.
>>223040477>Anakin is a whiny psycho in that show just like he is in the moviesYou're a fucking dumbass who hasn't watched the show. Anakin is a jocky chad who barely has any problems until he gets his inevitable "Vader moments" so the audience can cream their pants hearing the Imperial March and seeing Anakin do something somewhat morally questionable but never really that bad and it never comes up again (unlike in the Prequels where Anakin has to live with the guilt of what happened on Tatooine, Coruscant and with Padme forever.) Obi-Wan went from a Jedi distressed by the war to a fucking Marvel character quipping around and having dates with women. Ahsoka was added because Lucas was scared feminists would be offended by the Prequels were Padme is portrayed as loving Anakin regardless of his flaws as a person (this is also why Padme now has a boyfriend and dumps Anakin for a while, which goes against the very basic operatic storytelling in the films. Imagine if Desdemona dumped Othello.) He brought back Maul despite stating for close to a decade that he would never come back because retards kept saying he was "wasted" in TPM. He made Grievous a dumbass and Vos a surfer dude cause a lot of RLM-tier faggots thought the Republic comics were too dark.The NOOOOO as a last ditch attempt by Lucas to connect the Prequels to the OT more so these retards could accept them better. It didn't work cause Lucas didn't know that people fucking hated the SEs, that's why he didn't do anymore changes after that.
>>223034871You lost, Mike
>>223040600>It didn't work cause Lucas didn't know that people fucking hated the SEsPeople have been complaining about the Special Editions for longer than I've been alive, and I'm not young. There is ZERO chance that Lucas was unaware of how much fans despise his changes.
>>223040625People hated some of the changes, shit like Greedo shooting first. Lucas didn't know people hated the idea itself of editing a movie, it came natural to him as someone who was very involved in the idea of changing stuff with time.Also, I didn't say it in my previous comment, literally everyone I've ever seen hate the PT fucking ADORES TCW. Idiots like Chris Stuckmann,Cosmonaut Variety Hour, Schafrillas, Belated Media, etc all fucking suck up to TCW. Idk about RLM but it seems right up their alley considering they admit in the Plinkett review they wanted the PT to be a corny 80s film and think Gremlins is unironically the best film of all time or whatever. Curiously, who hates TCW? People who love the original PT's intentions and hate seeing how it fucked shit up. The most common statement regarding TCW is literally "it fixes the Prequels", or at least it was before Filoni showed his true colors under Yidsney and people wised up to how awful it is and Prequel Resurgeance began. Tell me how that's "TCW being the same as the movies."
>>223040660>Curiously, who hates TCW? People who love the original PT's intentions and hate seeing how it fucked shit up.Honestly I don't think either are particularly good. Don't get me wrong, I love Revenge of the Sith and I could unironically probably recite like half the script from memory, but I see it on the same level as movies like Bayformers or Pacific Rim. I know it's dumb as fuck, I just love the parts where they swing around the lightsabers while John Williams music plays in the background.
>>223034871in his own words he said that ai generated star wars youtube series looked really good.at least aesthetic wise he's a boomer who enjoys ai slop.
>>223040691>I enjoy a high budget pulp fiction and I'm ashamed of it, just in case somebody says something
>>223040718You will too, eventually
>>223018021Thanks for the link, retardfaggot.
>>223019495Maybe sane people just want art preserved as it was. Maybe if you're brain isn't broken you don't want Colin Clive digitally removed from the castle destruction scene at the end of "Bride of Frankenstein" to match the continuity because it's a genuine fuckup and mistake but also a part of history to be remembered, a time capsule to a different era.
>>223022066>please please please watch my hour and 43 minute long "reacts to a youtube video" youtube videoI hate those, but it's fucking timestamped, you cocksucking shit-for-brains gutter whore.
>>223021948>he admits that the prequels were at least soulfulEverything after Ewoks II: The Battle For Endor is soulless and gay, and the only 2 characters in the prequels worth a damn are Jar-Jar and Palpatine, the latter of whom should've been the focus, given the story. I'd like to see the original scripts Lucas wrote in the 70s or 80s for eps 1-3 to see the stark contrast in the story, because there's no fucking way he envisioned at the time Obi-Wan first meeting Anakin when the former was a late teen and the later a fucking 9yo. Anakin was clearly some kind of fighter pilot, already an adult and youthfully brash, with Obi-Wan being the wizened middle-aged warrior monk archetype when they first met.
>>223018021Bad faith retard. Why do you lie? Why do people argue based on lies? Why is everyone fucking retarded?! It wasn't always like this, was it?

I was a teen and unseasoned in the ways of complete franchise disappointment. It was new Star Wars, ergo it "couldn't" be bad, there was spectacle, and giant monsters, and adventure, and a cute girl, and there hadn't been a proper Star Wars release in my lifetime. Surely it was great.This is excusable for a teen, especially given the context of the times. There is no excuse for praising TFA upon release. It revealed their normie status more than anything before or since, even moreso than "liking" Picard s3.
>>223041285Problem?
>>223038803He was clearly going all "h-haha unless?" on Heir to the Empire, salivating at "muh scratches" and "muh young Harrison Ford". He tried to mask it but it's fucking obvious that unlike Rich, he is still a SW fanboy that can't let go of his childhood memories of the 80s.
>>223040299>TCW is him redoing his Prequels to "fix" what people hatedHalf the show is Lucas being (((in charge))) while other people write and direct the scripts. He might've had the idea of a CG show to try out the TECHNOLOGY because George has always been all about pushing the envelope be it in the 70s, 90s or 2000s but narratively the show is Filoni slop through and through outside of the very occasional kino like Maul, the Whills or the episode with the droids alone in the desert (George's favorite).
>>223040447>the consensus on TFA, that it was just "fine"But Mike didn't say it was 'fine', he said he "loved it. It was everything I hoped it would be".

Taking things seriously means taking a risk, risking embarrassment. It's not entirely X's or Y's fault (raised by boomers and silents), but Goddammit, fucking learn to toughen up your own skin already.

>>223041151But artists are always in their right to re-edit their own movies however they see fit, they don't own up to "the collective fanbase" or whatever. If it's not a studio movie but something they created themselves to suit whatever vision *they* saw fit, they can and should be able to tinker with it as long as they want just like you're in your right to dislike it and prefer some restored 4K print of a previous edit. Reminds me of people using modern X-Ray to find out famous painters would paint over the same painting like, 17 times and up to their deaths like Da Vinci.
>>223040947Poor baby, can't go to youtube and type "RLM" like a grown up.
