So Jay, what did you think of 007 First Light?
>>740162506RLM (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
Well Mike when Bond shot that guy in the head it reminded me of "la murdera"What you've never seen it? Its an extremely niche Italian slasher movie released only in Brazil
>Ugh Mike I thought it was awful. In every way. Zero redeeming qualities.>Really? I thought it was pretty good.>Well I didn't HATE it
>>740162506These podcasters get uglier every year.
>>740163615They're midwestern slobs in their 40sYou will too soon enough
>>740162506>Jay do you think this Gen Z James Bond grew up watching our videos
>>740162948Mike then shits on it for 45 minutes while Jay defends all the woke garbage as the "good" parts
>>740162506>So, Jay, what did you think about Batman: Arkham City>i heard it was based on some video game>>740163615alcohol tends to do that
That's right, Jay!
>>740162506>I thought it was pretty realistic >I guess the visuals are pretty well done>No I meant outsourcing our defenses to an AI company>Oh
I definitely need to hear the opinions of some fat middle aged nerds who have failed to make a single decent movie despite that being their claimed area of expertise
pyrite is alrightwith meeeeee
>>740166601lel
Mike did nothing wrong. Fuck Hayasaka Aryan, it's not true.
I actually loved their movie
>>740162797you just called us /tv/
>>740162506>Damn it Jay when is the next James Bond going to be a fat drunk middle aged man from Milwaukee
I'm actually surprised Mike knows who AVGN is.
>>740168142>he doesnt know
>>740167150yeah but ask yourself, would you not turn this off after 10 minutes if you didn't know who rlm were or didn't like them
>>740162506give me a reason why i shouldn't spend a month watching their videos in a half-alive state
>they liked the backrooms movieis it actually good?
>>740166303BAP BA BAAAAP
>>740168590You are approaching it with the exact opposite bias if you have to ask "what if I hated them"... but you're on the right track if you evaluated it like you just didn't know them.
>>740169070the answer is yes autismo, you would turn it off after 10 minutes if you didn't know them
>>740169150But I do know them
>>740167441that's about the level /v/ is nowadays.....
>>740162797i'm not reading that, imagine seething this hard over some gaytubers.
>>740162797Bitter narcissistic apathy is still better than whatever you’re doing
It's nice of pepe posters to so clearly mark their posts so you know you can skip on reading anything they say
>>740168978WHAAAA?
>that one trivia show episode where Mike said with full confidence that Lucas only direct one movie, completely forgetting the prequels>rlm only exists because of the prequel videosTake care of your elderly, /v/.
>>740169641When mike develops dementia he will just sit in front of a mirror for hours laughing at the elderly person there
>>740169537LOOK AT ME!
>>740162797FPBP
>Isola is charismatic as hell in that game!
>>740168725Mike and Jay really liked The Force Awakens so
>>740168590I like trash movies so no. But other than a few jokes that took too long, it was a good enjoyable movie. The RLM humor works and it was one of those "anything is possible in the next 10mins" kind of movies. None of the scenes felt unnecessary. Also when Spacecop and....Mike breaks up, I'm sure even the average viewer would know what's going on.
>>740162839Why does Jay love gore so much? What is wrong with him?
>>740170938Gore>:)Nudity>:(
>>740170938He makes his own snuff films in private and appreciates authenticity
>>740170013In a vacuum someone might be forgiven for that. It wasn't until sequel movie 2 and 3 that Disney really, undeniably shit the bed.
>>740170938That's just Gen X pussywhipping. Slasher movies where 10 people get their necks slit, but yikes, don't stare too hard during the shower scene!
Why does everyone hate them now?
>>740171205Half of the movies jay likes are nothing but shower scenes
>>740169768ONE OF USONE OF US
>>740171323Anon...
>>740171248I just find their attitudes grating. They really give the sense that they think they're above it all. I still enjoy Re:Views generally , especially on Star Trek but that's about it. I stopped watching BotW when they started bringing in tons of unfunny new guests.
>>740171248Garden variety contrarianism. They achieved pretty high popularity so now you can't admit to liking them.
>>740171005Poor cats :(
>>740171589>They achieved pretty high popularityI feel like they've had the same sub/view count for the past 10 years
>>740168725Saw it, its pretty solid actually.
>>740171248Not really, it's just you and like two other autists on /tv/
>>740169768how are americans this fat and disgusting, jesus...
>>740171248Shit on Star Wars prequels on YouTube for years during a formative time for social media, massively influenced public opinion which directly led to the JJ Abrams and Disney disaster that we are all still currently dealing with.That's why. You can draw a direct line from Mike Stoklasa to The Mandalorian and Grogu.
>>740171824Sub count really isn't the only measure of cultural relevance or peoples' awareness of them.
>>740172149Where are you from
>>740171817Good night sweet cats
>>740172176Mexico, why?
>>740172175Way to make your claim unfalsifiable even with hard numbers involved, nice
>>740171248People love them. Also videogames and shows fixed prequels but Mike refuses to watch cartoons and play games. I bet he didn't even watch Star Trek TAS
>>740171248They were always pathetic manbaby nerds seething over children's scifi, and only others like them thought they had interesting things to say. Star Wars is now in the toilet and that is partly down to losers like these. Time has proven them to be, not only spectacularly wrong about everything, but downright embarrassing.
>>740162506
>>740171248A combination of >>740171589 and >>740172168>>740172263During that same period of "sub stagnation" they started getting big name Hollywood people to show up on their videos
>>740167441/v/ has always been a sub-board of /tv/ just like how videogames are a sub-medium of movies
>>740171589It's funny cause they're not even that popular compared to other slop, they have like a solid 500k viewer fanbase that sometimes dips into the million but that's it
>>740171248>older than 23>not propped up by political dark money>whiteGee I wonder
>>740171248I don't think they are even mainstream enought anymore to warrant hate. They are just guys that are getting older and older and their opinions are becoming more and more solidified, one way or the other. I still watch all their videos, but they have become more hit and miss as they age in terms of entertainment.
>>740172453And yet people like >>740172168still find a way to blame this channel with barely a million subs for fucking STAR WARS current vector
>>740172653You really think people at Disney didn't watch this video?Are you serious? Everyone knew about this video. EVERYONE.
>>740171248They were extremely harsh on movies from the 2000's(not just starwars) and now that we have been in a genuine slop age of cinema for 16 years their takes on those movies seem like bad rage bait which makes them look like clowns.
Is this the thread?
>>740172168I am pretty sure Simon Pegg was their great fan, and he was one of the people giving Disney pointers in how to develop the new sequel trilogy.You can tell TFA was made by someone who took the Plinkett reviews too seriously.
>Schrodinger's Media>A channel is both irrelevant and completely to blame for everything that happened to the world's biggest sci fi franchise
>>740167441kill that guy, Hatsune Miko!
Apologize.
>>740162797Watching rich play xcom/2/wotc and even interview key staff and enjoy it was good at least
>>740162506So are these guys gay lovers or what? They clearly don’t have wives or kids
>>740172721Hits the same way as super best friends. They’re not as popular on the entertainment side but they’re well known in the industry they cover.
>>740171824>>740172357>>740172721Can you guys please decide if they're irrelevant losers or massively influential people capable of dictating how gigantic megacorporation spend literal billions of dollars?
>>740172653It's not about them being popular, it's about them having friends in high places, like Kevin Smith or Simon Pegg, who then started giving Disney ideas.
>>740172293>They were always pathetic manbaby nerds seething over children's scifi, and only others like them thought they had interesting things to say.Indeed, they're the opposite side of the same coin that encompasses Disney adults and helpless Star Wars nerds who treat the franchise like a religion. Still funny though.
>>740168725They aren't terminally online like us so they don't have therapyslop fatigue yet.
Didn't Mike himself literally admit that it's likely his fault that JJ Abrams made The Force Awakens
>>740168590Insight and context go a long way>Newsflash only people who play golf can understand why it's a sport
>>740172239The difference in obesity rates between usa and mexico is only couple percentile
>>740172721The prequels sucked and he was right about everything. That doesn't mean things can't always be worse though.This is like getting mad at dice when you roll the dice a second time, and you get a lower number than the last roll. He didn't choose the new outcome.
>>740162797Thi is mostly true but they are entertaining which is more then your cynical slop. >>740166102They are 50 years old who never exercise an eat junk food. What do you expect?
>>740173016That's easy: They're irrelevant losers when they like something I don't like, and massively influential when they like something I do like.
>>740172168prequel niggers are the funniest, no amount of shitty disneyslop will magically make the prequels good>>740172721show me where he was wrong
>>740168725The sets are neat, but the story is more A24 nu-horror slop where everything is a metaphor for trauma.
>>740172175Well if we're talking about cultural relevance and awareness, they've been popular since the Plinkett reviews, so the idea that people just started being contrarian because they got popular makes no sense.
>>740171248people don't hate them, per-sebut they got out of doing modern movie reviews for a long while, and the conversation about the industry moved past themwhen they decided to come back to modern reviews, their position was years dated so they sounded incredibly out of touchthen they doubled down hard shitting on someone else for caring so much about Star Wars the way they they actually care about Star Trek and it only made things worsepeople still like them for BotW and talking about old movies/Star Trek/etcit's a shame because the whole reason they stepped away from new movies seemed to be because the space was becoming oversaturated and the discourse so chargedit didn't make sense to keep it up when their reaction to most movies was "meh, it's okay"
>>740172168I don't get this revisionism
>>740172239
>>740173087He's gone on video as saying he stands by that statement, and also adds that never did he say, think, or suggest that abrams can write
>>740172771>You'll have to take of his pants...>Why would I have to take off his pants to milk his tits?
>>740173156I rewatched it recently and it's really just a lot of very nitpicky and dumb complaints that boil down to "this is not how I WANTED it to be!" instead of any valid critique. Those reviews were ground zero of a lot of retarded and ignorant bullshit star wars fake fans still parrot to this day such as complaining about jedis wearing monk robes instead of luke's black suit which has always been a thing in the OT, the monk robes were fucking there.
>>740173491Se... se parece a mí. Se parece a mí. Yo... gracias.
>>740172927Sorry George, we didn't know how good we had it
>>740173337the real problem is the decay of the film industry as a whole, most movies coming out are "meh, it's okay" tier, I think it's wrong to say that they didn't keep up with the times though, they were the first to start talking about the effects of covid and streaming platforms instead of carrying on as if nothing changed
>>740173472>durrrr, the prequel movies are so dumb and dark and boring>why can't Star Wars just become a nostalgia trip with no meaning behind it and lots of mascots/puppets like in my favorite 80s movies?Yeah, it's the opinions from people like Mike that put us where we are today. He wanted hollow, shallow nostalgia pandering that doesn't do anything new. That's what he got.
>>740162506Hey guys! Im voicing a Cube named Frank in the next God of War! Its going to be a smash hit! See you in the next BOTW!
>>740162797i would rather hang out with chill gen-x boomers than frogposting autistic millennials and gen z retards with zero social skills albiet whomstever
>>740173742I don't know what movies this guy has been in because in true 4channel fashion I don't actually watch a lot of movies despite watching RLM, but he fits the crew very well
>>740173337>Have often different opinions on new movies>They're out of touchWutAnd yeah I like learning about star trek
>>740173602I'll have to rewatch it myself to see exactly what he said again. I really don't give a shit about "robes" if that's the kind of thing he dwelled on. I do think George went insane with shit like Jar Jar and how much of a children's movie he set out to make, while simultaneously also making a movie about trade disputes and senate hearings.You can call me a "fake fan" for harping on this stuff but it will never not be true that it's super lame that a kid can accidentally pilot a ship into the center of an enemy drone hive and "accidentally" flip switches to destroy everything.
>>740174008No one can seriously complain about Jar Jar in a series with ewoks, which were far more egregious.
>>740171248A few things.-Mike's softball criticisms of the Star Wars sequels and refusal to apply the same standards he used with the prequels exposed his blatant hypocrisy-They've been phonong in their criticisms for years and barely pay attention ti the movies they review-Mike constantly feels the need to placate his Reddit fanbase by clarifying that if he doesn't like a movie, he doesn't like it for the wrong reasons like those icky chuds-They've fallen into to gen x trap of thinking their shitlib 90s views are edgy and cool-They protest too much whenever they see a gay joke from and old movie abd have to let everybody know that THAT IS NOT OKAY and that they're on the right side of history-They have a chip in their shoulder and act like they're somehow more legitimate than other YouTube critics-Mike's hyperbolic praise of mediocre Netflix slop like Midnight Mass.-They just aren't funny anymore
>>740173867Gen x are shadow boomers. They're anything but chill.
>>740174068Yes they fucking can.People already complained about Ewoks, and Jar Jar is that shit times 1000At least ewoks ate lasers in the back sometimes and fucking die. Meanwhile Jar Jar can stumble through an entire battlefield and trip on shit, accidentally killing thousands of droids unscathed.
>>740174068>No one can seriously complain about Jar Jar in a series with ewoks,this is why no one takes prequelfags seriously
>>740174068prequel apologists deserve the ropeno, mary sue girlboss wars doesn't make prequels good in retrospect
Jar Jar Binks was iconic
>>740174072It's hilarious whenever they talk about disney wars because they always have to keep the facade and not complain too much or else the evil prequelchads will see it as a victory, and they always end every criticism with "but the prequels are WORSE!". There's no fucking way any conscious being thinks that new mandalorian movie is in any way better than the prequels.
>>740173742
>>740171494>especially on Star TrekYou can tell how much he and Rich truly loved Star Trek and how miserable it makes them that it was ruined
>>740173293I prefer metaphor over visceral horror
Star Wars prequels are masterpieces and RedLetterMedia could never even approach 1/100th of the greatness that George Lucas carries in his pocket lint
>>740174434His pain is my pain.
>WOWWWWW really? Noo. No.>Hohhhh boy.>No, no, no, Rich! No, Rich! RICH! You're forgetting this verrrry important plot point that explains that!>SO THEN THIS NEXT thing happens in the plot>COME ON. Come onnnn. Come on!>Ohhh, Jesus Christ. Ughh.
>>740174536The prequels are dog shit, zoomie.
>>740174563You're obese and bald and old. You don't know what's good, you exist in a perpetual state of bad.
>>740174303Iconic shit
>>740173337I enjoy meh it was okay reviews more than highly passionate reviews. I can't stand people who get too into what a film meant to them
>>740172927They did after watching the Mandalorian and Grogu movie and George respondedhttps://x.com/redlettermedia/status/2058368084486869485
>>740174551i wonder why this fat autistic guy keeps coming on the show when they pretty much make him into a fool constantly. It's like nerdy autistic guy at the dinner table who doesn't know when to shut up or when people are scoffing at him.
>>740174551I've seen Josh hate in threads like this one a lot, but at worst I just don't have strong opinions on the guy.
>>740174551>Did you just make a heckin' sexism?I hate this actual faggot so much.
>>740162797look at that, they already shut down consoomers like you years ago, fucking kek
>>740172441That's wrong, video games are a sub-medium of tabletop games. So we're a sub board of /tg/ if anything.
>>740174594The collective realization at the time of how horrible the Phantom Menace was is forever etched in my mind. People who were so excited for it couldn’t believe how shit it was and were in denial for a while. They went back to the theater to see if maybe they just missed something and it was just as shit the second and third time they watched it. You can’t understand the disappointment the nerds felt after desperately wanting a new Star Wars for 20 years and then having this shat out of George Lucas’ asshole all over their faces.
>>740174824quite ironic coming from the guy surrounded by merch that makes a living talking about next product, or was that during their shitty movie hipster phase?
>>740174892Yeah, man children hated it. We all know. You've been crying about it nonstop the entire time. That's kind of the point?
>>740174861The first video game was a version of tennis. We're /sp/.
>>740174926>you cannot criticize an industry, company or product if you are a customer of any industries, companies or productthat is the point you are retardedly trying to make, I hope you understand that.
>>740174168All the signs were there that he was going to fuck up the prequels but nobody wanted to believe it. The shitty “special editions” of the original trilogy with slop special effects added was another sign.
>>740174892I'm glad I'm a free thinker who isn't easily influenced by basedciety so I watched the prequels and enjoyed them without some obese petulant gen x manbaby screaming in my ear about it.
>>740174594No zoomer, you exist in a perpetual state of bad. You can’t even conceptualize how much better things used to be. I feel sorry for you.
>>740174989It plays like table tennis. Which is by definition /tg/.
>>740175004Yes, being a consoomer of next product is exactly the very first thing you shouldn't be doing if you aren't just performatively complaining.
>>740175097>NO YOU!Kek raped.
>>740175053You are free to be retarded.
For me it's ninomae ina'nis
>>740175025He didn't even want to direct the prequels. He literally went to all his big director friends and offered it to them and they all rejected the offer because "you're george lucas, do it yourself"
>>740175168And so were all the grown men who showed up to Phantom Menace and got angry because Anakin was a little kid and the silly alien stepped in the doo doo.You are just as old as Mike and the fact that you're still sitting here seething about Phantom Menace is truly, truly fucking embarassing.
I still love rlm but i don't watch them directly anymore. Instead they're always on a second screen while i lurk the internet. I am simply not stimulated enough when watching them only
>>740174979They are objectively a HUGE step back from the originals. The only thing they had was better light saber duels. If you’re a mouth breather and that’s all that matters to you, then I guess that makes sense.
>>740175097Are xoomers even aware of how stinky they are to everyone around them? Everyone just thinks of them as simpleminded navel-gazing warsies with no media literacy, they're the ones that gave "nerds" a bad name and were constantly mocked by the creators of the franchises were they stinky about.
>>740174892The Phantom Menace is better than any of the OT movies. The only Prequel movie that is worse than an OT film is Attack of the Clones.
>>740175145>completely misses the point
>>740162506bring back pre-rectum
>>740174551Beardfag is the typical redditor. He'll wear fake edgy satanic t-shirts but then throw a bitch fit if a movie has a joke about women or minorities.
>>740168725Its a pretty decent slow burn, the writing was kinda meh in certain parts but overall I had a good time
>>740163615time makes fools of us all
The Phantom Menace is absolute KINO.Fat ass drunk bald old men need not apply. George knew what he was doing far better than Mike Stoklasa has ever done anything
>>740175326Better worldbuildingBetter tech and character designsBetter backgroundsBetter plotsBetter writingBetter cinematographyBetter themesBetter acting (some xoomer will misinterpret this one)
>>740162797how old is this pasta
>>740172149Mike... had a hard life
>>740175238His director friends were smart, they probably knew he'd micromanage them even if they were "in charge."
>>740175287>grown menI wasn’t even alive yet when the originals came out. I watched them only a few years before the prequels came out and it was clear to me that the new ones were a huge step back. I can’t believe we’ve gotten to a point where retards are trying to say the prequels were actually good. People really are getting dumber, huh?
>>740172149not just any american, but wrestling fans
>zoomers nostalgic over phantom menace of all thingshuh? not even revenge of the sith? was jar jar a key to all of this?
>>740175394Since pre-rec shut down, Jack has been busy.
>>740175476It quite literally went over their heads and you can tell by how retarded the plinkett reviews are, and no it being ironically retarded doesn't make it not retarded.
>>740173602Mike Stoklasa had his unwarranted assumptions and personal headcanon shattered and was immature and ignorant enough to say to himself, "this is George Lucas's fault, not mine." The prequels were very well made and high concept space fantasy for 10 year olds. Nothing more than that. All the grown ass men losing their minds back then who seized the narrative and pretended they were irredeemable, while kids and families just enjoyed them and moved on, are some of the most pathetic faggots I've ever seen. Mike Stoklasa is the spiritual leader of those incels.
Mike being humiliated by William Shatner on xitter utterly destroyed whatever confidence he had left. Imagine having your childhood hero call you pathetic and for all the world to see.
>>740175334Holy fuck you’re a tasteless retard. You have to just be rage baiting at this point.
>>740172721I think Rian Johnson even tweeted out the he was "afraid" of RLM.
>>740172858Damn I didn't know they founded Disney that's crazy
>>740171248I hate them because they aren't MrBeast or Clavicular
>>740175562Phantom Menace has podracing, battledroids and absolutely fantastic planets and cities, II is cool enough with the cyberpunk and cloning facility stuff but it's kinda off and the other planets are boring, it's really all in the world-building.
>>740175573>thinking George Lucas’s slop prequel writing went over anyone’s headFucking zoomers are so brain fried they’re acting like these shitty movies are fucking Citizen Kane.
>>740173892He voices superman in the newest superman cartoon and he was in a movie about a dorky guy with no sense of pain having to save his girlfriend from a criminal organization.
>>740171248>now
>>740174926Hello Shatner
I watched RLM when they first came out, but eventually stopped watching. I recently tuned back in to hear their take about the Minecraft movie, and they sounded like a bunch of old out of touch fogeys.
>>740175625Just looked it up and apparently it's just Shatner not understanding satire
>>740175823I mean they are and they admit that they are…
>>740175826amazing how gen x satire can go over the head of boomers
>>740171248I don't hate them, but recently there have been way too many episodes with celebrities and other shitty guests
>It's a Best of Worst with a Nepobaby actor
>>740171248I still love them and find them entertaining. They have some pretty on point commentary as well
>>740175892William shatner is pre-boomer. He’s old as fuck.
>>740175932They removed the Max Landis episode
>>740175826Why do gen xers always hide behind irony like cowards?
>>740175826Men his age should not be using emojis. Men HALF his age should not be using emojis.
>>740175763Citizen Kane was just celebrity gossip controversyslop that only really makes sense in the context of the era, way to out yourself as a poser.
>>740175975That episode was painful to watch not knowing anything about who that was
>>740175823That "review" was fucking horrible and they should be ashamed of themselves, but they really want the ad money I guess.
>>740171248They fell off, got left behind by the culture, failed to learn a second trick.
>>740175975What was the deal with him again? Did he turn out to be a diddler?
>>740176014lol, ok Reddit bro. Ok, would 2001 A Space Odyssey be a better comparison? The Godfather? Or do you have other spoonfed responses as to why these universally loved and well made movies are acktually terrible and you’re too smart to like them? All the while defending THE PHANTOM MENACE of all fucking things.
>>740176201Those are different movies by different actors telling different stories in different styles, I'm not sure what you're even trying to say but I'm not interested in that sort of xoomer cracked top 10 best movies mentality.
>>740176123during peak metoo he was accused of physical and sexual abusethe most surprising thing about that was that he's apparently not gay
make way for the only consistent and trustworthy movie reviewer
>>740175975that episode had a strong takeoff but didn't really stick the landing
>>740174670>Meesa will reprimand her later, hahahaha!
>>740176342The idea of reviewing something and watching reviewers as sources of truth is just plain retarded and pathetic to begin with, the only acceptable form of reviewing is pure comedy like AVGN.
>>740171248When I was a kind and watched their mr.plinket series on prequels (that I hadn't seen) I thought they were fun and insightful.Much later on when I actually did see them I came to realize how juvenile, opinionated and petty their takes were.
>>740176569>kid in 2011>hadn't seen the prequelsDo you really think zoomer tourist's opinions matter
>>740175298
>>740175975It's still there if you look for it in the playlists
>>740176569You are just so much smarter than everyone else, huh?
>>740176000I'm pretty sure it's an intern handling his twitter
>>740168725It was okay, my only gripe is that one of the characters went le heckin insane
>>740171248At a certain point almost every big eceleb gets exposed as a fraud.
>>740167441This is a AAA thread.
>>740171248The epstein class gen x hollywoodians started publicly declaring their love of RLM manbaby trash, and those same hollywoodians are currently making the worst irony poisoned garbage known to mankind. RLM aren't exactly to blame but they are symptom of a disease.
>>740176569>a critique is opinionated
>>740173472It's like hoenniggers forever sore about not living through pokemania, same coping mechanism.
>>740162797this pasta only becomes more true with time
>>740175892>>740175826Shatner's criticism is on point, if you actually bothered watching it you'd know how toothless and ironic it is, it's basically just RLM placing themselves as "better fans" that are still effectively exactly the same as 80% of podcasts out there.
>>740178196I've watched every nerd crew episode and it's clearly satire, and not very subtle at that, you retard lmfao
>>740178456Where did I say it's not satire you 90 IQ subhuman?
>>740178491Malding retard lmfao :DD
>>740177962It was never true, it's just prequel tranny whining
>>740176518Isn’t comedy supposed to be funny though?
>>740178456>>740175892Rlm think they are doing satire, ignoring they are no better and are just sniffing their own farts pretending they are above it. Pure delusion. They are retards and clearly so are their fans. Have you seen how much worthless shit and movie props Mike buys? Shatner saw through them a mile away.
>>740162506Well Mike I was born before 1990 so I have an insane prejudice against any form of interactive media and think it's all worthless toys for children and I will continue to think that because my brain pathways are stuck.
look at mebap bap bap
>>740175543>lying to protect your fat alcoholic efriends who make low-effort youtube slop for a livingEmbarrassing
>>740180161>someone watching the original star wars trilogy with their parents is incomprehensible to a muttoid zoomer freak
>>740162506I never watched these guys before so I watched their Event Horizon review. I watched the fat retard on the left struggle to understand the very basic plot of the movie, and even get basic details wrong. People don't really trust these guys for reviews do they?
>>740170013>really likedI believe Mike explicitly said he loved it and that it was everything he wished it would be.
>>740180291Watch Best of the Worst, it's their only actually great content.
>>740180349Well apart from old Plinkett reviews obviously.
>>740176898You could say the same to Mike and Jay. I watched them for a time when they blew up and it seemed all in good humour, but when I realised what a bunch of hack faggots they actually were, the true motives behind their videos, with all the unbelievable smugness and arrogance on top, I realised I'd been had.
>>740172721Even when they weren't directly exposed to the videos, they were exposed to people who were, who parroted the nonsensical "The Phantom Menace has no protagonist" line, who touted the 'Plinkett character test' as something genuine and not just a bit.
>e-celeb cock sucking threadKill yourselves.
>>740171248>e-celeb cock suckingHas never been cool. Kill yourself.
>I didn't hate it
>>740162797>newfags and favelamonkeys cant recognise a copypasta #62529446271948
Everything Star Wars outside of the original trilogy is rancid dogshit and if you disagree, you are simply wrong. The prequels are abysmal, the sequels are unwatchable and everything in-between is varying levels of uninspired crap.>but what aboutIt's shit. I actually disagree with RLM more often than not, including on Star Wars, but thinking that they were more important to people's perception of those movies than the quality of the movies themselves is just fucking retarded.
>>740180465They're right, it fucking doesn't, and the main "characters" are fucking nothing other than Obi Wan being a bit of a tight ass. The movie is shit and you are a retard for defending it.
>>740180659I fucking hate when they say this.
>Josh episode
You mean temu uncharted britbong edition?
>>740180659>Battleship: The Movie didn't make me want to stab my eyes out with a rusty fork, so yeah I recommend it you should all go see itI guess Mike was just from an era where you went to the cinema all the time.
>>740175826I love shatner
>>740180728>it fucking doesn'tQui-Gon JinnAlso lacking one central protagonist isn't a flaw>the main "characters" are fucking nothingThey are exactly on par with the OT characters, it's just that Mike decided to ask a bunch of his boomer friends who hated TPM about TPM.>>740180703The OT doesn't hold up, the prequels are better films. It's nonsense for you to call the sequels unwatchable and not the OT given they're the same damn movies.
>Don't lecture me, Boomer. I see through the lies of Red Letter Media. I do not fear the Prequels as you do!
>>740180465>"the nonsensical "The Phantom Menace has no protagonist"Who is the protagonist? Jar Jar?>>740180703>Everything Star Wars outside of the original trilogy is rancid dogshit Some of the video games are good
>>740181037>could the protagonist of the movie be the character we spend almost its entire runtime with...?>no, it must be the comedic side characterLOL
>>740171248Actual answer?They went from talking about movies to 90% of their videos crying about the internet>NOOOO PEOPLE GAVE THIS TV SHOW I LIKED A BAD REVIEW THEY ARE DUMBThey barely talk about the plot or characters of the movies/tv series they make videos of.I also find their takes on shitting on nostalgia ironic considering how much of nostalgic man children they are obsessed with their childhood shows.I dont think I hate them but I find them fairly cringe, like the /tv/ equivalent of penny arcade or Tim Buckleys webcomics.
>>740180831never understood the hate for joshit's like children being upset there's an uncle at the family gathering they don't know
>>740181113Oh we're doing the thing where we pretend not to understand basic points made in a 15 year old youtube video. I really think you should just kill yourself instead. No one will miss a worthless faggot nigger like you, including your failure cunt mother.
>>740174926https://youtu.be/b5ZchzyDPJw?t=401
>>740181189Come to think of it, you're right. I watched them talk about the Acolyte not long ago and they barely actually talked about it.
>>740181235>psychotic rage over light mockeryOTfags are such lunatics.
>>740175607>The prequels were very well made and high concept space fantasy for 10 year oldsPretty much this.Im in my 30s and when the prequels came out I remember seeing them in theatres and thinking they were cool and moving on.The issue is fags from the 80s who worshipped star wars getting asshurt that the series for children didnt grow with them.Mind you I have the same thoughts over the sequel series. I cant imagine getting asshurt over them, literally who gives a fuck about star wars?
I don't give a fuck about Star Wars, but anyone who watches lazy, sad old nerds sit around drinking, or have strong opinions about movies with pew pew lasers and talking frogs made for literal children, deserve to be aggressively and relentlessly mocked.
>>740181250it's like poetry
>>740181191>never understood the hate for joshHe's an annoying faggot. I don't know what else to tell you.
>>740169241>>740169241Huh? /tv/ still creates culture, v does not.
>>740171494Have people really forgotten how satire works? Like, on a fundamental level?
>>740181252I had my epitome them when they were reviewing some random pretentious mystery tv series then at the end of the 40 minute video I couldn't remember the name of a single character in the series they were talking about because the entire video was them pulling up strawmen 1 star reviews and saying how dumb people were for hating it.You could have shilled me the show by talking about how great it was instead and I probably would have been interested but instead doing some retarded strawman rant I got nothing out of the last 40 minutes of my life.
>>740180962>Qui-Gon JinnExplain how he's more of a protagonist than Obi Wan, Anakin, or fucking jar jar>They are exactly on par with the OT characters, No, they aren't. They have no personalities, meaningful relationships with other characters, long term goals or motivations, or even particularly coherent moral and ethical ideals.
>>740181331No shit.>is that... is that Greedo shooting first??? WHAT THE FUCK GEORGE LUCAS LITERALLY RAPED MY CHILDHOOD, THAT FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT WE OWN THESE MOVIES NOT HIM, I BOUGHT THE ACTION FIGURES I KNOW STAR WARS BETTER THAN HE DOES, FUCK I WISH DISNEY RAN THIS FRANCHISE INSTEAD, GEORGE LUCAS LITERALLY NEVER DID ANYTHING CORRECT AND EVERYTHING GOOD ABOUT STAR WARS WAS DONE BY EVERYBODY ELSE ALWAYS!!!!!
>>740166303jesus fuck hes so old. he looks like a mob boss. wheres his family?
>>740172721what makes you think disney understands the internet, genuinely asking
>>740181827Literally the only good idea lucas ever had regarding star wars was including the jailbait alien in the clone wars cartoon
>>740181573satire due to its nature makes fun of the original creators so it's a big no-noparodies still exist but i don't think i've seen satire that's not made by out of touch boomers
>>740181250>Make fun of onions wars consoomers>When they themselves are massive onions wars consoomers with thousands of dollars worth of merchandise whose entire fame is making videos about star warsHonestly ironic
>>740169641and direction aside, george has ilm and pixar and produced a ton of great stuff not just with spielberg. late kurosawa films for example. mike is ignorant what georgie boy has done for films. yeah the prequels stunk for the most part, especially clones is boring, but every man makes mistakes. you get as rich and successful as he was you will only have yes men around you
>clearly wytpipo are the problem, thats why cinema sucks now>*watches abhorrent capeshit and a24 caliber anti white crap*Lol gen X was astronomically raped with Friends tv show. The got by the goybeam harder than blacks with drugs.
SORRY!
>>740162506why do they look like they don't age?
>>740181813>Explain how he's more of a protagonistHe drives the entire plot. Obi-Wan follows Qui-Gon's lead through the whole movie and has no role to play on Tatooine. Anakin is a child. Jar Jar is comedic relief. Qui-Gon:>he decides they need to get down to Naboo>he convinces Jar Jar to take them to his city>he decides to take Jar Jar with them>he convinces the Queen to leave Naboo to go to Coruscant>he convinces the pilot of the royal starship to land on Tatooine>he leads the group on Tatooine and befriends Anakin>he decides to risk it all and trust that the Force brought him to Anakin for a reason>he decides to bring Anakin with him to be trained as a Jedi and vouches strongly that he must be the chosen one>he makes Obi-Wan promise to train Anakin as a Jedi>No, they aren't. They have no personalities, meaningful relationships with other characters, long term goals or motivations, or even particularly coherent moral and ethical ideals.That'd be quite on par with the OT characters then.
Random Trivia Show > BotW (Junka > Battle of the genres = Christmas specials > Wheel > Plinketto > Other attempts at Black Spine) > Plinkett > Re:View > Half in the Bag > Beyond the Veil or whatever their rambling episodes are called.Half in the bag used to have good episodes mind you.
>>740181573The point that you're missing is that they aren't any different from the ones they're satirizing, they're still unironically surrounded by plastic toys and still talking about the exact same slop, but with a holier than thou ironically detached attitude whenever they're busy assembling whatever star trek toy they bought.
>This whole review felt like, ‘we regret to inform you we kind of liked this movie’, and I didn’t understand where the regret was coming from. Not-fanboy is the new not-gay
>>740182125>Make fun of onions wars consoomersWhile that's true, did you watch at least 60 seconds of the video? Or like the ending of the video where they accidentally set things on fire?
>>740173523its true he only said he should direct it
>>740173892watch Logan Lucky if you get the chance. The Pitch: It's Oceans 7-11
>>740182590I don't need to "watch" a video to know what happens in it
>>740182125yeah they're really protective of all that merch and wouldn't do anything like melt thousands of toys in a vat of acid for giggles and shit or anything
>>740172275he watched lower decks
>>740182239Remember when Mike said nu-Trek was bad because they were making the shows for jocks?
>>740182590>>740182729Yea then their next video was them spending thousands on gremlins merchOr thousands on star trek merchOr the set pieces for their videos usually having toys or some other dumb shit they bought or ownedBut Im sure they destroyed all those right?Its certainly not because they destroyed star wars toys because they are manchildren mad they arent pandered to in their childrens movies anymore and because they are against being massive consumers?
>>740182840Science, fuck yeah!
>>740162506so, did they say anything positive about Pedro pascal and his green baby?Want to add it to RLM humiliation mural if they liked that shit
>>740172721>let me ask the people I pay if they agree with me there are no characters>wow look there's no charactersriveting stuff mike
>>740180668>actually flexing because online strangers aren’t hip to your elite secret inside joke faggotryIt still says /tv/, I’m sure most can sense it’s a pasta and are replying generally to the idea it represents vs thinking the poster is being sincere you autistic retard.
>>740182901you have a weird level of fanboyism where you're clearly very aware of a lot of the shit they do yet are functionally retarded on the context of it and have a completely flanderized version of how they act
RLM is peak /tv/Just like oneyplays is peak /v/
>>740182901Context is lost on you apparently
>>740180668This. You'd have to be a white loser who's wasted his whole life on 4chan to identify this useless factoid
>>740182901God you're stupid. There's a world of difference between having a genuine collectable or piece of memorabilia, and having piles of funko pops and cheap corporate bullshit lol. Fuck just end yourself, you're clearly too retarded to have any value.
>>740171248Their recent videos haven't been good and like 90% of their best if the worst videos have an annoying guest star
>>740183132>There's a world of difference between having a genuine collectable or piece of memorabilia, and having piles of funko popsNah there unironically isnt.People who line their walls with vintage star wars figures are just as cringe as those who line their walls with funko pops
>>740182840as a star trek fan, that's like calling fire ants slightly stingy
>>740182934The mandalorian review was a weird tiptoey "it was boring and ugly but we shan't dare say too much bad about it WOAH THEY USED STOP MOTION ISN'T THAT CRAZY? WAY BETTER THAN THE PREQUELS!" Basically they just prioritize their hollywood ties and fear of zoomers over honesty.
>>740182934They apologized to the prequels xd
>>740183229>I'm a giant retardI already said that
>>740183278nta but what bizarre headcanon just to justify hating some ecelebs
They revealed themselves as frauds when they defended the first of the nuwars movies only turning on on the second movie when the collective internet did and likely because nuwars shit on Luke and they are all massive nostalgia slaves
I gave up on them when they defended the obi wan series.
>>740176346heh
>>740182376For me its the "our least viewed episode" series
From the demographic group that brought you>George Lucas raped our childhood!comes>Prequelkiddies are too attached to the Prequels!
>>740183736Remember, in 10 years there will be a new generation of kiddies defending the sequels
>>740183736The cognitive dissonance knows no bounds.
>>740180962>It's nonsense for you to call the sequels unwatchable and not the OT given they're the same damn movies.Someone really thinks that, huh
>>740183789No there won’t be. We’re already a decade out from TFA.
>>740183278Nigga they litteraly said its the worst star wars movie
>>740183789...you said that 10 years ago unc...where are those mythical alphatards saying Rey/kilo slays?
>>740183426They literally preface and end their review by seething about the prequels, the entire angle was that "it's boring and we couldn't get invested in it but hey it didn't make us ANGRY like the prequels", it's right there, soifacing over the robots is also in the review.I can actually substantiate my claims, fuck off now bitch.
>>740183902>>740183925A decade from phantom menace everybody thought it was shit, now look at the kids defending the prequels in this very thread
>>740183902>We’re already a decade out from TFAOH FUCKKKKK
>>740183913Rich Evans had the worst takes possible but since he's relatively low-key it's easy to miss how bad his opinions are.
>>740183947I've always looked at the prequels as "Good jumping off point for other stories (I like Battlefront and the 2d Clone Wars series), pretty bad movies overall".RotS still has some very good moments.
>>740183947You are trying to make the Sequel's fandom happen, it ain't gonna happen bruh.They don't even have a successful long running cartoon with orange pussy jailbait from a more civilized age, there ain't nothing more going on with them.
>>740183945>We weren't invested enough in this latest installment of a zombie franchise so that's something at least! I knew these boomers were hackfrauds since their TFA review. Thay movie was just a dogshit retreat of the first Star Wars yet they glazed it. I still enjoy their videos, but I don't take their opinions seriously.
>>740183945>by seething about the prequels, the entire angle was that "it's boring and we couldn't get invested in it but hey it didn't make us ANGRY like the prequels"Which they said made it worse, because it was so unimaginatively bland that they felt nothing at all
>>740183947Huh? There was never a point in time where I disliked PM, you have some weird fantasy view of reality because you grew up with plinkett reviews.
>>740183945>>see! I’ve substantiated my claims therefore making me and my parasocial hatred of this particular group of e-celebs superior!
>>740183945>t "it's boring and we couldn't get invested in it but hey it didn't make us ANGRY like the prequels"You realize that this is them saying the prequels were better than mandalorian right?Also if you hate them why are you still watching their every video?
>>740184153>now look at the kids defending the prequels in this very threadYes that's you
>>740181573Fucking tard.
>>740172927I accept your apology George for willingly selling Star Wars to White Slavers
>>740184089>I don't take their opinions seriouslyOkay, you aren’t really supposed to?
>>740184040That is an ontologically correct statement.
>>740183947I thought the prequels were better than the OT when I saw them in theaters, I think they’re better now. What kids were watching the sequels and thinking “wow this is so much better than all the old stuff it’s blatantly copying!”?
>>740184040he exposes himself as a plebian every single time he appears on HitB, I think his opinion of every single Disney Wars film is "it's okay". i swear he's said the same shit each time
>>740184232that quote will forever live rent-free in my head alongside pottery and jar jar being the key to all of thiswhat did he mean by that?
>>740184341Your opinion doesn't matter, especially since you're just trying to fit in with the other Indians.
since this is an ecelb thread.Why the fuck hasn't zach come back to OP? Did they lie about the last season of SF and is working on another one?Come on I want to hear him play peak and sucking at it like the rest.
>>740184420nigga what on earth are you talking about
>>740184389>what did he mean by that?Jar jar Sith was actually happening until it wasn't.
>>740172927No, I will not apologize for calling Strange Magic a 0/10 piece of shit. I stand by it.
>>740184417Good one.
>>740184312Rich's statement ended on saying Attack of the Clones is the worst, then Jay interjected with "but it's more interesting." You aren't really going to get a more nuanced opinion from a single person there.Then they go on a little rant about what metrics they're using and what really makes a bad movie which is just a really roundabout way of avoiding ever putting a prequel movie above anything else. This isn't the kind of conversation anyone would have if they had a coherent honest thought.
>There's a world of difference between having a genuine collectable or piece of memorabilia, and having piles of funko pops and cheap corporate bullshitNo there isn't Mike
>>740184464he's speaking of smiling friends creater Zach Hadel and Chris O'neil's gaming channel "Oneyplays"
>>740184603>Rich's statement ended on saying Attack of the Clones is the worst,It is. Why do you pretend this will sound wrong to anyone but yourself?
>>740176123casting couch
when best of the worst stops being funny, thats when its truly over
Their Star Trek content is so insanely comfy and it clearly brings Mike and Rich genuine joy, I don't know why they don't just make a podcast series where they talk about every episode in depth. Hundreds of thousands of people would want to listen to it.
>>740184663They couldn't even agree on what movie is the worst to begin with, so what the fuck are you saying?
Reminder: RLM is so captured by their Prequels takes that their take on The Acolyte was>well sure this sucks>BUT ITS BETTER THAN THE PREQUELS
>>740184603>Rich's statement ended on saying Attack of the Clones is the worstSo Rich was objectively correct?
>>740174551beardfat makes noise rock so i like him
>>740183947the prequels were kept relevant by outside media. mainly, VIDEO GAMES. which disney does not believe in. the kids want video games.
>>740184651>bitch replies half an hour laterGo back, holy shit
>>740171248From my understanding, a lot of it comes from them having some opinions that doesnt line up to (you)rs, or from people who felt attacked by the "just consume product and get excited for next product"I like them, but they're almost the dictionary definition of Midwit. Also they still act like Star Trek 09 wasn't fucking terrible
>>740184793OT is just armyslop and dull grays, people way underestimate how much the prequels elevated the universe and aesthetics.
>>740184349Him giving himself away as a giga casual wikipedia reading "comic book fan" during the marvel times was hilarious.Dude was like 25% correct on any statement about comics he brought up.Like one of those people you talk to about videogames and you just sort of get the feeling they are just parroting some eceleb without having ever played the game themselves.Not that I think anyone should read marvels trash but still
>>740183947>A decade from phantom menace everybody thoughtIt was a silly epic movie with some of the best set pieces and music in the entire series?
>>740184920And kids loved podracing
184805bro got mad he didn't get the (you)
>>740182295Qui Gon grts pushed from location to location by the plot. The only real independent decision he makes is to gamble human lives in a death race, which would be interesting if Lucas had realized it was fucked up.>he decides to risk it all and trust that the Force brought him to Anakin for a reasonEU revisionism. In the movie, his entire motivation is that the scouter said Anakin's power level was over 9000>That'd be quite on par with the OT characters then.Anakin is a hick and a dork who years for adventure in the stars and princess pussy. Over the films he becomes angrier and more aggresive as the losses and scars of the war start to pile up, but ultimately saves himself and his father though belief in the ideal of redemption. Han is a piece of shit drug mule who loves money and princess pussy but comes to understand that the validation of doinv what is right for its own sake is more important to him, even while hiding his newfound benevolence and humbleness behind a mask of crude behavior. Leia is a smug cunt. Who the fuck is qui gon jin?
>that one episode where Mike and Jay claim The Lighthouse is a film about repressed homosexualityI guess I should up my media literacy.
>>740184603A bad movie can be interesting. They have an entire series about that called Best of the Worst.
>>740184990>redditor thinks people care about his downvote proxy bullshitSure thing mate.
>>740172927I was entering my teenage years when the prequels started coming out and I legit thought they were based on a book series because of how incomprehensible they were, like missing half the book scenes
bro replied instantlyHe got called out lulz
>>740185128>replies just as fastOkey doke
>>740185026>Who the fuck is qui gon jin?A jedi, aka a creepy bland good guy
>>740175826Seems to me like Shatner noticed their 'satire' was hypocritical. Do rlmdrones really think Shatner mistook nerd crew as them being themselves? Fucking retards.
>>740174670Rich Evans once again pulling all the comedic weight with his George Lucas impression.
>>740185059Pretty sure the entire planet thinks the lighthouse is that.
>>740185059Man, I love Documental
>>740185026Excuse me, LUKE is a hick and a dork, etc etc
>>740185026>which would be interesting if Lucas had realized it was fucked up.George knew. That's why he has Padme point out that the Queen wouldn't like it; and shows Shmi and Padme watching the race with looks of horror on their faces, as they are terrified Anakin is going to die.
>>740185194Yeah he clearly did think that based on the tweet you're quoting>blindly defending the auteur of future warsGrim
>>740183947>everybodySeething manbabies is everybody?
>>74018538111 year old me thought they were shit when I saw them even at the time. The games and EU shit that came form them hard carries the entire trilogy's reputation and nostalgia
>>740174670>starts rambling about nukiegeorge?
>>740185125>I legit thought they were based on a book seriesare you me?i read harry potter as a kid so the harry potter movies introduced me to the concept of movies based on books, when i was watching attack of the clones in the theatre kept thinking "wish i would've read the book before seeing this" because of how seemingly little sense the whole thing made
>>740185026Why did you think that gambling for the kid in a death race wasn't meant to be seen as fucked up? That's the entire point of placing Anakin in some shitty-ass slave planet where people die in death races, THAT'S THE FUCKING POINT YOU UTTER MONGOLOID IT'S A SHITTY PLACE.
>>740185351He literally acknowledges that they are making fun of people, then tells them that they are the same as the 'nerd crew' they are making fun of lmao. How could it not be more clear? He absolutely roasted that fat retarded hack in front of the whole world, and you're seething that ya boy got put back in his lane. Just accept the truth, it's easier in the long run.
>>740185059>Every movie has to be about atheism, homosexuality, or how bad white people are.Mike is a good goy still pretending to be an edgy contrarian, as is typical of gen x.
>>740185668Too bad future wars never took off ehIt's okay you can still hate on people who dunk on your favourite auteur
>>740162506I'm gonna wait for the 90% discount
>>740185583I remember watching Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones as a child and being confused because of how boring they were. I knew something was wrong but couldn't articulate it yet
>>740185026>EU revisionismNope. He literally says it out loud in the movie.>QUI-GON : Finding him was the will of the Force...I have no doubt of that.I've never read any EU shit other than Thrawn, SotE, and Dark Empire.>Who the fuck is qui gon jin?An aged master with a unique philosophy centered on living in the moment and trusting in the Force to guide him, even though this puts him at odds with the Jedi and drives him to take huge risks.
>>740185668What are you even on about retard?
>>740185778>I knew something was wrong but couldn't articulate it yetThen you received the medical report confirming your cognitive disability.
>>740185792That's a verbose way to say he has no character or agency and gets pushed to where he needs to be by the plot
>>740185778I was 5 and 8 watching both in theaters and I understood each of them completely perfectly. Fuck, they aren't hard to understand.
>>740185882>children have poor cognitionDid you learn that in university?
>>740185959Did you know blacks don't recognize themselves in the mirror until they're 5 years old? Regular humans take 18 months.
>>740185947>literally cannot read
>>740185947Where did I say I couldn't understand them? I only said they were boring as shit.
>>740185687Its quite alarming to think how many normalfags watch this shit, and wonder why they pack trucks or put boxes on shelves. It poisons your soul, even if you think you are above it and watch shit like the fallout show just to see how bad it is.
>>740185872I'm enjoying the fact that Shatner exposed Mike Stoklosa, and all his fans are playing dumb.
>>740186042>/pol/ shit put of nowherelol, lmao
>>740186060When you complained about being confused and that they were boring. You were bored because you couldn't understand what was going on. Probably the autism.
>>740185947I cast serious doubt on your ability to understand movies at 5 years old seeing as a manchild you lack basic reading comprehension
>>740186083>I'm enjoying thing that didn't happen that I wouldn't even have even aware of if I hadn't watched the RLM video talking about itOk
>>740186142Really not beating >>740186049's allegations
>>740186051>a generation of xoomers got brainwashed into thinking this isn't the coolest shit
>>740185932No, that's nonsense. He is the one moving the plot, not being moved by it.
>>740186142>prequelfag reading comprehension
>>740186259I love capeshit
>>740185330Padme disagreed because the plan was stupid. She didn't even express fear for Anakin's safety, let alone comment on Qui Gon's dubious ethics.>>740185656No you retard. Obviously Tatooine being an evil shithole is fine, I'm talking about Qui Gon's decision to lean into it and put his mission and the boy's life up to chance, rather than, say, just threaten Watto.
>>740186236>>740186289>I was confused by the movies and thought they were boring>wtf where did I say I couldn't understand them??LMAO
>>740186170>Shatner watches shitty RLM video and makes a correct assessment about them being hypocritical manbabies>huh how did you know that? haha you must have watched ityeah how the fuck would you talk about it otherwise you idiot
Behold how quickly and easily the RLMtard slips between>the Prequels are bad because they are boring, nobody cares about trade disputes and politicsand>the Prequels are all substance-less spectacle CGI effectsVery jewish behavior.
>>740185792He said that after reading Anakin's power level>An aged master with a unique philosophy centered on living in the moment and trusting in the Force to guide himIt got him and billions of people killed, lmao
>>740186465Are you implying that substance-less CGI shit isn't boring?
>>740186259The fight choriography is lame
>>740186361>rather than, say, just threaten Watto.Yeah it was unreasonable for a Jedi to have faith in the Force, he should have committed armed robbery on a dangerous but not immediately hostile world.
>>740186580>muh dancing fightsGo jerk off over Darth Vader throwing himself against a rail in the throne room for no reason lmao
>>740186372>retarded nigger still hasn't gone back to read the post he's referring to>illiterate nigger has read it and still can't tell the difference between what it says and what he thinks it saysNot sure which is more embarrassing tbqh
>>740186424What?
>>740186591The force didn't tell Qui Gon to cheat at gambling and put a 9 year old in a death sport either, fucktard.
>>740186361>Qui Gon's decision to lean into it and put his mission and the boy's life up to chanceAs opposed to what? The movie sets something up and then something else must happen, it's written like that to increase the stakes and make it an interesting movie, it's the whole reason why the planet is a shithole and Anakin is a slave who is into podracing, so there's a high stakes payoff. Yeah you can argue he could have just sneaked away with the boy or whatever the fuck but that doesn't make it a better movie, it would be much worse in fact. "Why didn't this character do X that trivializes everything else" is the most midwit retard take anyone can make. You can say the exact same thing about any movie.In A New Hope, the gunner says "hold your fire, there are no lifeforms." instead of just shooting the escape pod with C-3-PO and R2-D2 and the death star blueprints. This is a completely idiotic decision since shooting the pod wouldn't have any drawbacks at all and would prevent droids from escaping, which the gunner knows can be a thing.
>>740186504And? Are you saying that the character couldn't have been thinking something until the moment he verbally said it aloud?
>>740186749Sure it did. It put him there in a position to make the bet. Just like it put Anakin Skywalker in the Outer Rim to begin with. The Force works in mysterious ways.
>>740184420Episodes are recorded months and months in advance. We still probably won't see him again for a while. And just because he's not working on Smiling Friends doesn't mean he isn't working on something else.
>>740162797The prequels still suck
>>740162797Frog copy & paste with a bad take as usual
>>740186749???Anon come on, you know there's a gigantic gap between "I'm going to sway this die roll so that we can win Anakin's freedom instead of Shmi's" and "I'm going to forcefully take the part I want from this trader immediately after landing on a world where we're trying to avoid attention".
>>740162506007 was lame slop, hence the only thing the goobers talk about is the bitches in the game and fucking mirrors lmao
>>740171248It's probably a variety of stuff, but one recent-ish one was the Acolyte discourse. They mocked people complaining about "lore breaks" like Ki-adi Mundi being in the show as an old man decades before he should have even been born, and unironically played the "People are starving in Africa, you know" card. On top of being a non-argument, it's also wildly hypocritical because they're huge Star Trek nerds that hate how that franchise has been trampled over with no respect for the series' past. It's little stuff, but it's weighed against their otherwise (or once) sterling reputation. Also their gimmicks have gotten kind of old, and people have many more and often better channels to seek out media commentary.
>>740174345>There's no fucking way any conscious being thinks that new mandalorian movie is in any way better than the prequels.Mike literally apologized to the prequels after watching the Mandalorian movie.
>>740187142Apology not accepted.
>>740173742*Phranqueyes, really.
>>740173293Literally every good horror can go under this rigid definition. Its not something A24 alone captured and does, retard
>>740187307this scene just shows how retarded of an idea the whole jar jar thing was
>>740185059theres a little bit of that but not entirely. old man and the young man are the same characters. it's the lighthouse keeper that went insane mentioned by dafoe
>>740187393Yeah democracy could never be subverted like that. It's basically the perfect form of government.
>>740186842Not only does Qui Gon not say or imply this, it was a PROFOUNDLY bad decision.
>>740187536way to miss the point you actual retard lmaoare prequel apologists even sentient
>>740187548>it was a PROFOUNDLY bad decision.He got literally everything he wanted out of that decision.
>>740186962He doesn't need a part. Padme's chrome pimp yacht doesn't matter. He needs a way off the planet and preferably the super baby.
>>740183132>having a genuine collectable or piece of memorabilia, and having piles of funko pops and cheap corporate bullshit lolnot really. the memorabilia is worse since it costs a lot more. a waste of money.
>>740187576I agreed with you, you're right. It's unreasonable to believe someone as gullible and retarded as Jar Jar Binks might be put into a position where they could make society destroying votes. Thank God for our Democracy.
>>740187548worked pretty well actually and made for some great scenes!
>>740187707the answer appears to be no
>>740174345The prequels are really bad. Like, from every standpoint, filming, diologue, acting, sets, cgi, etc.The mandalorian show alone is better than all of them. And yhe trailer for him and grogu is filmed and better paced than any of them
>>740173867>Sure Gen-X/Boomers ruined the entire economic system by buying up all the houses for cheap, and then offshoring all the jobs so that their businesses could make more money at a massive expense to all future generations; but some Millennials and Gen-z's pulled a stupid face in a youtube vid, and that's much worse.
>>740187307>Apology not accepted.Based as fuck, Mike gets to live with this forever. I hope he loves it
>>740187739Everyone is entitled to be wrong and retarded.Shit, RLM built a YouTube career out of it.
How the fuck did this went from 007: First Light to Star Wars lmao
>>740167441wait wtf why am I on /v/
>>740187821Mike Stoklasa will never, ever live down what he did
>>740186808>As opposed to what?"Give me the remote for the boy's slave implant or I'll gut you">Yeah you can argue he could have just sneaked away with the boy or whatever the fuck but that doesn't make it a better movie, You're right, a better movie would have come up with a better conceit for the pod race. How about this: have Anakin be a teenage mechanic apprentice who refuses to leave the planet without completing the race, forcing Qui Gon to choose between his mission and the chosen one, with Padme being the one to convince him to stay. >In A New Hope, the gunner says "hold your fire, there are no lifeforms." instead of just shooting the escape pod with C-3-PO and R2-D2 and the death star blueprints. This is a completely idiotic decision since shooting the pod wouldn't have any drawbacks at all and would prevent droids from escaping, which the gunner knows can be a thingYeah and it's the worst part of an otherwise smart and well thought out script.
>>740187619>He doesn't need a part>Padme's chrome pimp yacht doesn't matter. He needs a way off the planetAnon... That ship is their way off the planet and they need a part for it.
>>740186051>they hated the kids for rightfully enjoying this kinoI think they were really fucking jealous desu
>>740187876>they should give the next Star Wars movie to my own personal hero, JJ Abrams, he's a real director so he would btfo George Lucas
>>740185229Yeah bro, the ending is about reaching the tip of the phallic lighthouse (gay) and getting the forbidden fruit (semen of the seaman) and then dying of aids (faggot). Truly a queer masterpiece.
>>740187907>"Give me the remote for the boy's slave implant or I'll gut you"Yeah that's a reasonable course of action for the guy who said minutes prior "We don't want to attract any attention."
>>740187907>the Prequels would be better if Anakin was the chadly teen I always imagined while I was watching the OT in the 80stypical
>>740187946Mike specifically said JJ should direct the movie not write it, but I guess such incredible nuance is just lost in translation
>>740187591>>740187731Qui Gon putting his mission on the line for Anakin and convincing the council to accept him got their whole order and billions of people killed. Thanks, The Force™
>>740187821Because some butthurt zoomer can’t get over the fact that they shit all over the god awful prequels
>>740171248I will never hate RLMBest YouTube channel of all times.
Just finished it. Later half feels a bit rushed. Vietnam was some good shit but way too short.Playing on Purist was okay, but I see no point in the game giving you stealth or just gunning and punching shit down if there is no rating whatsoever.
>>740188045people are actually discussing 007 in other threadsthis is an off topic RLM thread
>>740182934They called it a flavorless packet of STAR WARS®. Brought to you by Filoni Baloney.
>>740187993That was before he found out about the boy with the super high power level he thinks is so fucking important>>740187997Anakin being a cockier, douchebag version of his son makes perfect sense for both the logic and themes of the narrative, yes.
>>740173293no its not and the movie even mocks people who think that, the film is about the phoniness of people>>740176982yeah me too, although I guess we dont know how long they were trapped there
>>740188093>I see no point in the game giving you funWhat is wrong with you
>>740187907>have Anakin be a teenageNah, that's dumb. He was made a child on purpose to make leaving his mother more traumatic.
>>740188156Leaving his mother wasn't traumatic, failing to save her from being raped to death by aliens was, which happened much later
>>740184675I haven't watched a wheel episode since the Arnold humiliation ritual
>padme is the same age in episodes 1 & 2 while anakin goes from a child to an adultincomprehensible dogshit
>>740188151The issue is that even if you try to do stealth runs, you get nothing for it. Nothing changes and if you fuck up at specific checkpoints, the game will just throw you back a couple of sections before. This game feels like a Hitman's worst nightmare if you try to do a flawless stealth run.
>>740188267Behind the scenes footage of crew swinging mini-figures on wires would look equally as retarded.
>>740171248They're no longer counter-culture. Being sarcastic and hating everything is popular among the masses.Which is funny because they're arguably the biggest reason this kind of culture even exists.
>>740188340>the game doesn't feel like Hitman when I want to treat it like I'm HitmanEvery single thread it's the same post. Watch a single 007 film please
>>740188302Women change less from 14 to 23 than guys do from 9 to 18. Still should have had Anakin be older in TPM because kids suck and it would have made his action scenes much better
>>740188119>That was beforeAnd? It'd still be unreasonable to get himself a wanted level on a planet where drawing the attention of the Hutts means you and your allies get mobbed and killed or enslaved.>>740188230That's just what the man was thinking when he made the decision to make him 9.
>>740187805Nah. Youre fuckjng stupid. The prequels are bad and other star wars things being bad isnt going to make them good. They were bad then. They are bad now. Fuck off
>>740188506Then we wouldn't have received the greatest movie poster to ever exist.
>unironic prequel revisionism This is just sad. Pathetic at this point. Blaming RLM for articulating what everyone thought of the prequels when they came out is absolutely on point with classic zoomer hubris of thinking they're hot shit while ignoring the thousands of years of human culture before them
>>740188556
>>740176000only children and ancients use emojis
>>740188556The Prequels are a love letter to that historic culture, while the OT is just a mid-tier analogue of vietnam in space, ooh America bad, haven't heard that in the 70s before
>>740188465Not the point I am trying to make. The game does not give you any rating on how you perform, whether if you just run and gun it, or if you kill shit without being noticed.For Your Eyes Only is the best Bond movie and I like that the game throws a few nods to that one and even one reference to Austin Powers.
>>740188556Most of the prequelfags on 4chan are just baiting for (You)s and they do it endlessly on /tv/. If you asked them what they found good about the prequels, you'll never get a straight answer. Case in point: >>740188741
>>740188556>Blaming RLM for articulating what everyone thought of the prequelsI'll always find it hilarious that the grown adults who watched and didn't like the prequels couldn't articulate their own thoughts on them, and they needed RLM to do it for them. To come up with genius insights like "I didn't like it so it's bad".>>740188664>Source: my ass
>>740188664It's too bad that Disney has done absolutely nothing to capitalize on said "prequel revisionism" by putting more budget into depicting the Old RepublicInstead they have almost exclusively committed themselves to making ENDLESS original trilogy centric SLOP aimed at boomers.Somehow, Palpatine returned. I wonder why?
>>740188465Every single thread its the same retards defending a game with notable flaws.
>>740188519>It'd still be unreasonable to get himself a wanted levelWatto was a fucking nobody>That's just what the man was thinking when he made the decision to make him 9.Well then he's an idiot, because it's not communicated in the film and isn't plot relevant. Honestly this image is just perfect, "Yeah making Anakin 12 would have made the movie a lof less retarded, but I wanted a scene where a little boy has to leave his mom, despite it not leading to anything and him not being able to act"
>>740171248A combination of jealousy and general hatred for eceleb normie culture.
>>740188785>If you asked them what they found good about the prequelsThey're incredibly rich and artistic movies that achieve far more narrative depth than the OT ever even approached.
>>740188827>trying to play a game like it's a different game and failing means there's a flaw with the game!Not very bright are you
>>740188815To the contrary, they did everything RLM told them and it killed the franchise.
>>740187975There's a scene where he legit watches another man masturbate and it drips all over him
>>740188556This
>>740188881>Buzzwords with nothing to themThe bait is so fucking stale at this point. Just stop
>>740188905What about a smaller independent style movie that is just like, about some guy doing some bounty hunter stuff with a cute muppet?Wizards in space and laser swords are sooooo lame.
>>740188905Mike said to let JJ Abrams DIRECT a star wars film, not fucking WRITE it. And guess what, despite being retarded and lame, TFA was MUCH better directed than the prequels!
>>740188848>Well then he's an idiot, because it's not communicated in the filmHow? They have him cry on camera multiple times in different scenes about it and have the Jedi roast him over his attachment to her.
>>740188883Except it isn't. This game is very much Hitman-lite, with a coat of 007 on it. Your bluffs are Absolution's instinct and almost everything else, including some motion captures are identical to WoA. I still like the game, but it has 0 staying power once finished and the combat is an easy win button, if you know how to harass it.
>>740188993>asked what I like about them>anon gets mad at my honest opinionOkay
>>740189037He fake cries once and seems completely over it by the end of the movie
>>740188815The different Disney+ series became heavily prequel-centered>>740188881No they don't. They lack any artistic purpose since any shot with humans in it is just traditional shot/reverse shot blocking and anything that doesn't is just early 2000s CGI that aged like shit. Any artistic merit that refers to other, better works of art is just meaningless posturing.
>>740189102>He fake criesYou mean..... acting?
>>740189126>heavily prequel-centered>everything takes place during and after the OTNot very smart are you?
>>740162506Sex with Moneypenny
>>740162797Funny pasta but I still watch every video they've ever posted.
>>740189170No, I mean shit, unconvincing acting.
>>740188883>the game doesnt throw stealth at you as an option>th-thats not how youre meant to play! Watch a Bond movie noob!Everyone look at this guy who didnt play First Light.
I miss Nerd Crew. Honestly their best vids to date.
>>740189286Trying to play the game like Hitman with "flawless stealth" is not how you're meant to play, retarded faggot nigger. You Hitman fags have literally been repeating the same lines for weeks/months at this point about this. It's not Hitman, stop treating it like it's Hitman and then shitposting the game mechanics because it's not Hitman.
>>740189295Their best video (singular) to date is the star wars Christmas movie episode.
>>740189428>spending 24 hours playing this gameHow long did you sit in menus?
>>740189527First I didn't play it, now I played it too much?Figure it out bud
>>740189126>any shot with humans in it is just traditional shot/reverse shot blockingYou mean a foundational framing technique that is used in virtually every film and TV series because it's incredibly effective, that you're pretending is bad because Plinkett suggested it was?>anything that doesn't is just early 2000s CGI that aged like shitNonsense. Even that early CGI, how they managed to accomplish what they did with what they had, has artistic value. They didn't pull random CGI shit out of a hat.That is, assuming you can even identify which effects are CGI or not. Remember Plinkett's rant about how Mustafar was all CG and they should have had a guy pouring orange goo down a hillside?
>>740189428>"meant to play">this is how you play this video game right!How are you "meant to play" first light. It literally has you do stealth. Therefore, what do you think is a possible option. Notice I say OPTION.>>740189575Everyone responding to you isnt me.
Every shitty disney wars movie that comes out is a RLM eating crow event, and that alone makes it all worth it.
>>740189702You're meant to switch between stealth and CQC, you're not supposed to be a ghost. You're supposed to engage in the games systems, not just hide. The fantasy of 007 is not hiding.
Reminder that she won.
>>740188798What an autistic take
>>740188519Meanwhile Luke doesn't even shed a tear seeing the carbonized skeletons of his step-parents, compare that to Anakin's THEY'RE LIKE ANIMALS arc lol.OT is full of hackery but xoomers give everything a pass if it aligns with their nostalgia.
>>740189680Lucas was a lazy director that hated to direct and barely left his seat was the point. When he directed people the directing was stilted and the CGI sequences were directed by someone at ILM
>>740188848>steal anakin unfairly>watto gets mad and sends mom to the rape mines to make another anakin as punishmentIt's really quite easy to make a point as to why playing on watto's rules was the best decision even if you wanna be a retarded what-if slopper.
>>740189878I still have her episode in my PC so no
>>740188798He has to a source something you can Google in 2 seconds?
>>740190208>fictional rlmbabblenext you're gonna repeat the disney myth about george's wife "saving" star wars
>>740174345Mika made a video last year saying the direction star wars has gone in with the sequels and tv shows is worse than the prequels in his opinion.
>>740190415>Star Wars being saved in editing being widely known since forever>academy award for best editing>zoomer bozo says it's a "disney myth"
>>740190208It's quite odd that all his actors and camera crew and the like all gush about him all the time if he was so negligent and never did his job
I think Star Wars is shit>You mean the prequels or the sequelsALL OF IT
>>740190636You've never worked for a lazy pushover moron boss?
>>740190581Marcia Lucas was against getting rid of all the Luke scenes on Tatooine of him looking up at the battle, going to talk to his friends, going to talk to his friends more, so on. The prevailing myths that she somehow engineered Obi-Wan's death out of nothing, or that she changed this or that story element, are nonsense.
>>740190636>media package for a product has interviews of actors praising the people behind said productShocking, Lucas truly is a visionary genius director
>>740190734I have and everybody fucking hates them.
>>740190262Okay, so demand the codes to both bombs>what-if slopperIt's called dilligent writing
>>740190751>media package for a productYou mean interviews from 10-20 years later? Harrison Ford, a notorious crank who hates Star Wars, still talks highly of George Lucas. Mark Hamill still talks highly of George Lucas. Ewan and Hayden both do as well.
>>740190797Most people like being able to phone it in and still get paid
>>740190636Harrison Ford ribs on him but he's always grumbling about things. Also Marcia herself said the rlm-disney smear campaign was inaccurate.
>>740190858Because Lucas doing main photography in the fucking desert during the late 70s is not the same as Lucas directing actors inside some lot while never getting up from his chair in the late 90s.
>>740186051Never let any hint of menace be displayed.The menace must remain phantom.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0mUVY9fLlw
>>740191000McGregor, Hayden, Liam Neeson and everyone else I can think of seemed extremely glad and spirited about being in the Star Wars prequels and speak highly of George, even more so than the OT actors. Where are you taking this thing from about George being a lazy bad director that the crew didn't like?
>>740190871Okay but bad bosses are a thing.
>>740191000>>740191223The only people Ive ever heard say they disliked Lucas are autistic fans.Mostly because he doesnt seem to give a fuck about star wars in the same way they do, and whenever one asked him a question is when we got some of the most hilarious fuck you answers>Uhh the ancient with were called Darth Icky and Darth Insanius because it doesnt matter who cares
