Развлечения
Dear friends, Mike totally forgot Time Addicts was Australian not British. It was a while since he had seen it and when they talk trashy them kind of sound alike. It's kind of like when people say Milwaukee is in Michigan. Or that Minnesota is in Wisconsin, or that Minneapolis is in Milwaukee. No one really knows where these places are. If someone says "Blimey!" "Dodgy" or some other word it's "British". And when Mike says "British" he means "Everywhere else in the world except Wisconsin" and as we all know Wisconsin is the best place in the galaxy.
To be fair everyone I know who tries to fake a British accent ends up sounding Australian within 5 words.
Wisconsin is actually part of the Twin Cities
Jeffrey Dahmer likes this!
As some one from the UK ill say we are used to it, it's ok.
minnesota wilwaukee and misconsin all sound like drunk hippies. still my favorite American accent.
Nobody hated Alien Hunt until Mr. Plinkett reviewed it.
He reviewed it?! Or is that the joke.
They're referring to the Phantom Menace review
It shaped a generation.
Don't give a shite that Darth Maul fight and the John William's score still makes it up at the end. Attack of the Clones was way way worse. That was a not acceptable.
it's better than the new alien remake prequel sequel whatever the hell is that's coming out.
At the top of the IMDB trivia for Alien Hunt (2024) at the time of writing is:
"Rich Evans from Red Letter Media has not seen this movie."
Imagine watching a movie in the theater in the midwest and hearing Rich Evan’s laugh coming from the back of the theater
I'd just die of happiness right on the spot.
I’d leave immediately. I don’t want to catch AAAAAAIIIIIIDS
I legitimately wonder if he’s ever been recognized in public by his giggles. I could imagine it happening at a superhero movie or something like that.
I have never read a comment the same as this before!
It happens every night, in my nightmares.
If you can believe it, the Iron Claw movie is TONED DOWN from the real story. They had ANOTHER brother who also took his own life, and the father often monetized each brother's death with a memorial show.
Yeesh.
Jesus.
Yay, Chris had the worst, he had brittle bone syndrome or something, and went the way Mike did.
There are plenty of well made documentaries by wrestling companies for all interested, heartbreaking stuff
Yeah, I understand why the director chose to remove him from the story and he cleared it with Kevin (though the director also stated he made sure he would still be able to move forward with that idea if he objected), but it still really feels wrong for a movie so much about the family. I also heard Chris, the brother in question, struggled with feeling like he was really a Von Erich, removing him completely from the story certainly feels wrong all the more because of that.
Zac Efron looks like an original He-Man action figure.
Only Hollywood people can get into a disfiguring accident and come out looking better. He's not the first actor to get plastic surgery and blame it on a fake car wreck.
Maybe he's getting prepped to star in a Masters of the Universe reboot. 🤔
@@jackelewish1568or he could just be telling the truth
@@jackelewish1568 He may also be attempting to cover changes due to performance enhancing drug usage, particularly human growth hormone.
@@Birdyboys right..
I don't know if you will see this, Rich Evans, but I have a movie to whole heartedly reccomend to you! It is just up your alley. It is called Alien Hunt, and my favorite thing about it is that there are NO trees in the film.
Hi! Director of Alien Hunt here. Uhh - HOLY SHIT! Consider me honored! You even pronounced my name right! 🥲 Our movie is tiny. Like: barely-had-money-for-bug-spray tiny. So this is badass. PS - You SHOULD watch the movie! It was made to be a fun throwback to the drive-in/sci-fi Roger Corman-esque (RIP!!) movies of the 60s and 70s! We worked hard and had a lot of fun making it!! 🛸
I’ve heard the guy who plays Topher is an actual gopher. Can you confirm?
@@bradbelemjian4221can confirm. Hes my neighbor and I see him pop up in all these weird places
@@bradbelemjian4221 The guy who plays Topher, while handsome, is not a gopher. He is odd though. He kept sucking on nearby car exhaust pipes between takes. Big time diva.
Are you Forreal the director?
I hope it pops off for you bro!
RLM should get Kim's video library
Now that alone deserves it's own channel. Kim's video was the truth. It was my favorite shop on st marks back in the day.
That would be wonderful.
Fun fact: It was owned by relatives of real ninja master ans martial arts film star Ashida Kim and he made some appearances at the store for signings, etc.
i agree, but i also think every recording should be covertly replaced with episodes of Night Court
I used to think that they got their massive collection from a video store in Wisconsin that went out of business and have told everyone that I've introduced to this channel that story.
Somehow The Phantom Menace returned…
Alchemy...cloning...a shameless cash grab...secrets only a Sith would know.
Dark coincidences, cloning franchises, secrets only Disney knew
Well done sir
And still the most disappointing thing SINCE MY SON !
No one really dies…
What tiny, wasted country village gets the RLM VHS collection when you all die?
Oddly enough Salemi.
It's gotta be some place really shitty, like Serbia or Milwaukee.
Marinette, Wisconsin
Perfection, Nevada
The Milwaukee Dump.
Best part of Alien Hunt: when the big burly short hair woman is escaping with her team from the alien and then she says "RUN, GO! GET TO THE CHOPPER!". It was AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING!!! Classic 11/10
RLM's recap episodes have become the state of the union for the decline of cinema.
And more broadly the decline of the entire internet. These guys are one of the last channels to stay as consistent as they were back in the 90s. Oh wait wait I meant the “late two-thousands / early twenty tens”. Oh wait I meant the 1940s.
"While nobody's looking all these little perverts are making their weird indie movies." 🫡🫡
@@user-dnf83n0s8sg9u yeah my theory on how they're still good is because they don't seem to let their audience dictate their content and instead just make stuff about things they are interested in. If they didn't, Mr. Plinkett would probably be the only content they could make. The only other "old school" channel i can think of that hasn't fallen off is EmpLemon, also for the same reasons.
They have essentially replaced cinema for me (sad/laugh)
TBH They're happy with most of the movies in part 2
Please do a Roger Corman memorial episode. Best of the Worst, or even a simple discussion would be wonderful.
i wish they would review the interview series that's streaming now
It'd be a good void or Mike and Jay talk about
He's got some genuinely solid films under his belt, such as the 1964 Masque Of The Red Death.
What are you talking about, Roger Corman didnt make any bad movies
They've talked about him multiple times over the years so no.
15:03 - Mike Stoklasa thinking about what hijinks could occur if only RLM acquired Kim's 55,000 VHS collection...
“We’re gonna need a bigger wood chipper!”
Kim's Video sounds like a feature length Half in the Bag skit, I'm just picturing Mike and Jay searching an abandoned warehouse full of rotting tapes and stopping to talk about movies they've seen. Rich Evans shows up as a Mafia boss, it writes itself!
This was EXACTLY what I was thinking too
Rich Evans has the gravitas to pull off a performance like that.
It's like poetry, so it rhymes.
That's a little too close to On Cinema
@@TheT4xid3rmist exactly my thoughts lol, sounds like gregg turkington: the movie (although jay said it was well made/produced, so not quite haha)
Don’t say you’ll never watch alien hunt. In thirty years it will be on the wheel of the worst
oh man I hope they are still going on RUclips in their 70s
I hope they're still doing wheel of the worst so I can see if they are still insulting the elderly.
@@FrightenedPeasant Oh they will.
@spextrekid9410 that's like, seven years from now, lol.
I'm afraid Mike's geriatric liver will never survive that journey.
unfortunately these guys aren't gonna live that long lol
Alien Hunt was incredible! My favourite part was when the Alien said: "It's Xenomorphin time!"
A quick note for whoever that guy is that I'll always just call Mr. Plinkett about movie gun tropes: You also pump a pump shotgun after you load it because you need to load a round into the chamber behind the barrel. Before you do that, there are shells in the magazine, but the gun won't be 'charged' and can't fire. Because pump action shotguns generally have a magazine which is permanently attached to the shotgun, you keep that magazine loaded without charging the shotgun, and then pump to charge and put a round in the barrel when necessary so that you cut down on unintentional discharges and potential accidents. It's true that once you've loaded and pumped it once, subsequent pumps will remove the existing round from the chamber and put a new one in its place.
This guy guns.
no shit sherlock. Also that is MIKE not RICH wtf man do you even watch RLM?
Rich wasnt in this episode...
I have this idea of a progressive load for home defense, you start out with birdshot, go over to buckshot and then use dragons breath simply to inflict psychic damage
@@jonne7725 maybe even insert a beanbag and saltshot first so you can play with em a bit? or i dunno those beanbagshots are probably not loaded in a regular old "shotgun"?
"Post Pulp Fiction, Tarentino kinda knockoff movies"
Immediately cuts to a woman sticking her feet in the camera
I felt like Jay wanted to say "Tarantino's Twin Peaks" but just couldn't bring himself to do it
tarantino is a living knockoff of wild at heart, blood simple, and sergio leone
@@CielBlanchei feel like the incompetent trashy assasins in Twin Peaks The Return were making fun of how Tarantino did that.
Mike watched an entire film set in Melbourne and assumed it was English because the main characters were scummy
Fantastic!
I mean Jay shows a town on a map clearly in Sicilia and later went "I was not expecting any involvement of the Mafia".
As enlightened as they are, they're still Americans.
@@chalibard3826I mean, Cosa Nostra nowadays is faaar from their peak but yeah, the pointer still stands
England, butthole of the western world.
Americans are historically bad at distinguishing Australian accents from British accents for some reason. I see it all the time.
The Abigail twist reminds me of when I showed my wife From Dusk Til Dawn and only told her it was a crime thriller. Her reaction was the best I've ever seen.
I was almost excited that Mike was bringing up Alien Hunter, a weird and charming small-budget movie starring James Spader written by a clear UFO enthusiast with no knack for storytelling whatsoever. But then I realized he's talking about Alient Hunt, some nothing shot-in-the-woods movie starring nobody.
Sigourney Weaver's cameo in Alien Hunt was wild! Best acting she's done in years!
Cameo? I would call the person in the alien costume a bit more than a cameo.
I think you were watching
Paul mate😂
Not sure if serious.
imagine if they deepfaked every character as Siguorney Weaver, we can do this now.
Mike is wrong about the shotgun. You pump it to chamber the first round after loading. I’m not financially tied to Alien Hunt which you can watch now on Prime Video and Fandango.
You load the first round after loading?
Wtf is that supposed to mean friend
You load it twice?
@@jasongarcia2140You put the shells in the gun. Then you pump it to chamber the round so it can actually be fired.
Maybe it was them pumping it a second time, and they just didn't put it in the video for us to see? I know that's what Jay was referring to at least. When they pump it and go "lets go get that bad guy". Then they aim it at the bad guy and go "freeze!" and pump it again.
@@jasongarcia2140 On a pump shotgun you would load the shells into a tube under the barrel. Then you rack a round - which places a shell into the chamber. After firing the round you rack again, which ejects the spent shell, and loads a new one. So in a way, you do load it twice on the first shot.
Alien Hunt was a cinematic masterpiece. The film in no way was able to captivate the viewer and it honestly fell flat in many aspects related to script but the monster in it kinda reminded me of that movie Alien so I left it on while my house burned down from a grease fire.
Haha!
There's a movie from 10 years earlier called Alien 3000 that is basically the same movie, just a decade earlier.
Really looking forward to more distinctive and weird film recommendations and wherever else you guys take this channel. I don’t mind at all if you move further away from big budget franchise reviews, I’m just glad to see more reviews.
Jay: I don't know Zac Efron.
Jay 30 seconds later: brings up a Zac Efron not well known, new gossip about him
He's a secret fan
when he was like "his jaw got huge, apparently from some accident he was in...and he's all buff now," was that an intentional joke about not knowing what steroids are? or was that genuine...either way, lol
@@sam_bibly Genuine, I've seen that mentioned in news articles in the past. I think he brought it up on a late night appearance as well. Some BS story about how he broke his jaw and his masseters grew back 3x their size after the recovery process or something. I never believed it. I just figured he got some Hollywood plastic surgery to increase his masseters, as large masseters in guys are a trend right now with all the hype around mewing among the youth, and came out looking kinda weird.
He also mentions him a long time ago in a Creed half in the bag when he mentions Zac, Miles Teller, and Michael B Jordan all in a dude bro movie.
not well known? everybody was talking about it.
You should re-release the Plinket as well.
Yes!
Yes! They can remaster it, and make any necessary edits so it's closer to the original vision.
I'm sorry, don't re-release the review.
Well they did when it came out in 3D, so to be honest it would be rather funny. Episode I Plinkett review in glorious 720p, oh what a dream!
Release the Stoklasa cut!
It's Plinket time!!!!
Jay: "I was not expecting any involvement of the mafia"
Me (from Sicily): "Oh, my sweet summer child..."
*It's-a me (from Sicily)
i was expecting the Spanish Inquisition
@@petewerehere just because I'm Italian it doesn't-a mean th-
Goddamnit.
NO ONE expects the Italian mafia, our chief weapon is surprise, surprise and fear... our two weapons
The end scene with Zac Efron and his kids gets me EVERY TIME
The Phantom Menace?? Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. In a long time....
Goon-guhs.
It’s so dense, every single image has so many things going on…
far far away?
i find your lack of Faith disturbing
when i was thinking these year cant get any worse :/
The biggest flaw of The Iron Claw was the guy they got to play Ric Flair, who clearly didn't bother to study Flair beyond "WOOOO!"
Woooooo? WOOOOOOO!
@@user-zp4ge3yp2o STYLIN' AND PROFILIN'! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@@user-zp4ge3yp2ohe didn't even WOOOOO right. I think he read somewhere that Ric flair says wooooo but he didn't actually hear what it sounds like
As a longitme wrestling fan, I won't even bother with this one. The Wrestler 2008 was already miserable and depressing, and that's the only angle they have for wrestling it seems. Something fun and amazing like those 15 minutes in Rocky III would be a nice change of pace. That's how you style and profile! WOOOOOOOO
That, and the guy who played Kerry is 5'7.
Alien Hunt was great! I give it 5 out of 5 stars! I loved the part with the alien and the part with the hunt! Rich Evans’s best work in years!
As an Italian RLM fan, I definitely was not expecting Sgarbi to show up in one of these videos.
Yeah, me neither. I felt like I've been Rickrolled by Sgarbi. Sgarbie'd if you will
“One of those post pulp fiction Tarantino knock off movie” *cuts to shot with characters feet in frame* very subtle.
When I heard the name "Jim Cummings" I immediately thought they were talking about the Voice actor, and somehow he had directed multiple films; but no turns out this is a completely different Jim Cummings.
If you haven't seen The Wolf of Snow Hollow, stop what you're doing and watch it. Fantastic film.
@@denzelelysium what if what I'm doing is my 9-5 workday?
I was confused and wondered why the elderly guy who voiced The Master in Fallout was in some movie starring all these young people.
Could Jim Cummins remake his movies with Jim Cummings in the lead roles speaking as Winnie the Pooh?
So, what shall it be? Do you join the unity, or do you die here?
Speaking of re-releases, a local theatre had a 45th anniversary re-release of Alien a few weeks back, and when we went it was my friend, and literally only two other people in the theatre, and I want to cry.
While it is funny to hyperbolize saying that all the SW Prequel hate came after the Plinket reviews, you cannot deny the reach and impact those videos had not just on Star Wars fandom, but online critiques and humour in general. The "video essay" as we know it today spawned from those reviews.
For good or bad, not to overfluff it, but it was really like South Park often was. It changed things even for people who were either unaware of it or only knew it second-hand.
And the people who made the sequels undoubtedly saw those reviews and were influenced by them when they made their scidmarks on the cinematic toilet bowl of history.
I'd recommend watching comedy shows from around the time the prequels came out; the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones being irredeemable crap was part of the zeitgeist of the 00's. There are episodes of things like the Simpsons and Spaced that riff on it. While the Plinkett videos certainly didn't help those movies reputation, claiming RLM is responsible for those films' reputation is like saying Rise of Skywalker was only disliked because of MauLer or something (arguably even more ridiculous since at least MauLer and his tedious videos are contemporaneous of the Disney SW movies).
Yeah I’m not sure if they realise how genuinely influential their reviews were.
@@laurenpeacock6343 Years ago in some video that I cannot remember the name of, Mike said something to the effect of the Plinkett reviews being the basis of internet reviews from that point forward. They are aware of how impactful those videos have been on internet culture. Hell, I watched a video game review that came out a few weeks ago that had a dude doing the Mr. Plinkett voice.
I'm so proud of Mike for learning how to use a smartphone instead of printing his notes out
"OK Jay I'm going to show you the trailer for Alien Hunt"
*pulls out several pieces of paper with storyboard sketches*
My god have mercy on his soul
Seeing Iron Claw without knowing what's gonna happen has to be like watching Selena without knowing what's gonna happen. Heartbreaking stuff!
I went into it blind and the experience was devastating. Great film.
I did exactly that. I went with my wife who was sad about the recent death of her sister and so we went to see a film about wrestling. I didn't even realise it was a true story until Ric Flair turned up.
Imagine if From Dusk Til Down came out in the modern era. Everybody would be spoiled going into it. But maybe they were in the 90s. I was just a kid when it came out and I don’t remember any of the marketing for it.
Three White Russians in and I have to say, 'Alien Hunt' is good fun. Also, my wife and I have never talked so much about life. We balanced our budget and planned the next 3 years of vacations all before the ending. Thanks for recommending this movie, it truly helps people accomplish their goals and enjoy each other's company. /cheers
The Phantom Menace re-release is Disney making good on Bob Iger's 'IP mining' comment.
Re-releasing a "classic" film in theaters for an anniversary is usually a cause for celebration... for almost any other franchise (yes people genuinely like that movie). Even if it was one of the good ones, Star Wars is just so worn out that it doesn't even matter.
Also, this is the second time since the original run that Episode 1 has been re-released. Seeing the 3D conversion in the theater was what made me realize that Episode 1 has some cool stuff in it, but it's mostly just boring.
@@ASpooneyBard The very first Honest Trailer I ever watched (remember them?) talked about how you could "Relive the biggest letdown of your childhood... IN 3D!"
There was another Von Erich brother, but he wasn't included in the Iron Claw because addressing every suicide would have felt like tragedy exploitation.
It also sets up a sequel solo movie, though I usually prefer they set up characters individually before doing a team flick.
Five dead children is believable, but six dead children is going too far.
They left him out because they couldn't fit all the brothers in the movie's runtime. Kevin von Erich confirmed it
Ah, so without this one it would’ve not, right
Why are Jay and Mike so dang adorable? I can’t help but giggle laugh aww during each video and I’m pretty sure that’s not what they’re going for but…
No Dune Part II though? I mean, I'm pretty checked out of all the big blockbuster Marvel movies or anything Star Wars or Godzilla or whatever, but that guy, Villeneuve, he has a vision goddammit, and it's beautiful!
Didn't know about Kim's video collection.
It kind of figures: the mayor of Salemi at the time was Vittorio Sgarbi, an art historian/critic and media personality, very prominent to this day. He has recently (and briefly) been our Culture undersecretary. Apparently the whole project went downhill after his term was up...and yes, of course the municipality was infiltrated by the mafia.
I remember kims video from when I first moved to New York. They literally had everything you had never heard of. Such good recommendations, the staff really knew their stuff. It was just a film buffs paradise on earth. That store, plus Two Boots (which was a video store/pizza place), was the shit in early 2000s New York.
“Our subscriber count just dropped.”
Mike, the Plinkett Star Wars reviews are what got me into RLM and I have watched each of them dozens of times.
As a gen z it feels good to know mike hates us as much as old people. I feel included.
People say you had to see it as a kid to think it was good. I was ten when TPM came out and I can still recognize today that it was bad.
@@Jumbleman5I thought it was good as a kid because I was 5 years old and entertained by flashing lights and laser sounds and spaced out through all of the boring shit in between.
@@Jumbleman5 I remember seeing ROTS when I was 14 and thought it was a giant piece of shit, so I have no idea what the hell zoomers are on about when they say it's the best SW movie, let alone a masterwork of cinema.
The Plinkett reviews - all of them - are works of art. The ones for Titanic and Baby's Day Out are Mike's Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Racking a Shotgun is how you load a shell from the underside spring loaded tube, up to be fired.
It’s Called “police-carry”, by keeping the shells in the tube underneath the barrel, you prevent accidental discharges.
@@michaels5676 yeah that’s it, my bad. Thanks

The best part of being an alcoholic is that I can hear all that junk about Abigail and know that in a month I'll have forgotten all of it by the time I get to the movie in my backlog
I can't believe Jay hasn't made Mike watch Gummo yet
Cringe
It is strange that Mike hasn’t seen it
Yeah, I think Mike would think it was hilarious. At least the scene with Jerrod's grandma, who smells like baked ham.
Jay also doesn't seem to be a Harmony Korine fan tho, too bad we won't get an Aggro Drift review
@@BrianKishreviewsI think I remember him liking spring breakers when it came out or am I wrong?
Thanks for the video guys, really looking forward to seeing all the stuff you've recommended here.
Please do more of this format, I end up seeing amazing films i would otherwise never have heard of
Was hoping you guys had seen Challengers, it's a great movie, and for some reason I always got the vibe maybe Jay or someone (I know Tim has worn a Nine Inch Nails shirt on BotW but not sure how much editing he does) on the channel was a Trent Reznor fan. The intro to "Mike and Jay Talk About" has a very industrial music sound and the visuals remind me of the cover to The Fragile. And Trent/Atticus' score for Challengers is so fucking sick.
Iron Claw actually removed an additional brother that also killed himself. The filmmakers thought it was too much of a bummer so they pretended there was one less suicide in the family.
Really? That’s messed up… Wonder how the family felt about that.
@@fintan9218the family right now is only Kevin Von Erich and was involved with the movie so I imagine he is okay with it.
@@Epsilonsama thats so heartless imo, i can get drastically reducing screen time of one of them but to just cut them out as if they didnt exist… wonder if he maybe had a personal grudge against that brother. It just seems wrong to me, idk.

@@drownthepoorI think if women keep crying around you you might be the issue
She had that look on her face the entire quantumania running time.
It's nice to finally see RLM address the mind-numbingly incorrect take that everybody loved the prequels until Mr. Plinkett came along. Honestly it's been sickening seeing hordes of people online try and do historical revisionism for things we were actually around for.
When these ppl say everyone loved it, they mean they themselves loved it as kids, because the prequels are kids movies.
If anything it’s the opposite. The love for the prequels started to gain momentum around the 2010’s. That’s just a correlation though.
I, for one, can say with hand on heart, that I thought the prequels were rubbish then and they are still rubbish now.
@@paladin56 I mean I watched them as a kid too. I liked them when I was little, but when ROTS came out and I was a little older, I realized "oh, this is why the adults hate these movies".
@@HenskelionI remember watching them as a kid and never specifically thought it was terrible (I was a kid, I didn’t have that distinction yet) but I never had any desire to go back to the prequels. You know which discs I wore out? The OT.

Phantom Menace is the first film Jay ever saw !
And it's 34 years since the last episode of "Newhart" went to air. Don't tell Mr P, he'll only get depressed. Further.
Thanks yall this video made my day a little better
I watch these guys more than I watch what I eat or do. I have diabetes, aids and dementia. Worth it. Subscribed.
It's the Rich Evans work out! I too am subscribed!!
lol. Yes I am laughing at your misfortune.
I mean why talk about Dune 2 when you could talk about the Phantom Menace.
Most movie goers don't express their opinions on the Internet.
We are here to cackle, not ponder the infinite realities of space philosophy
May your podracer chip and shatter
They won't talk about dune 2 or the batman ever. They'll sprint away from you in the street if you ask for an opinion
Why talk about the Phantom Menace when you could talk about Alien Hunt.
The Phantom Menace is the worst things since my stool last morning
Just watched Alien Hunt. My favorite part was when the alien took of his mask & revealed himself to be Rich Evans & yelled "Now THIS is podracing!"
Regarding cocking shotguns. Many people load their shotguns with the action closed and store them that way for safety purposes. That way it is as ready as it can be without it being able to go off if someone happens to grab it and just pull the trigger. In such a case, you have to cock it to load the first shell before firing. It would not eject a shell because there is not yet one in the chamber. So the cocking of a shotgun before using it is not only cinematic, but does actually make practical sense in the case laid out above.
If Barbara Crampton is in a movie that should be the first thing mentioned about that movie.
Agreed. Which of those she's in?
@@dr.juerdotitsgo5119 The Last Stop in Yuma County
"The minute he sees a tree, he's checked out." That explains why Rich loves Fury Road so much haha
The RLM guys are RUclips royalty, Mike is considered a a credible and reliable voice in this space, yet he still watches stuff like Alien Hunt on Vudu. Very good
Finally I'll learn what my opinions on the crap that came out this year are!!!
You guys need to watch Hundreds of Beavers- I feel like it might be up your alley
Jack tweeted about it. Said it was "ridiculously good".
That's on Pornhub, right?
I was just about to comment about this. One of the funniest fucking movies I've ever seen
Jay: "Is that a porno?"
All this rum and coke is making my stomach hurt so I think I'm gonna ditch the coke from this point forward
I loved that part in Alien Hunt where they hunted the alien
Alien Hunt is 9/10, I took off a point because it was too perfect.
@@JoshuaOwens That makes sense. I wholeheartedly agree.
Mike would be in a senior home and the Prequels fans would still be asking him to amend his opinion on the prequels
Been watching since the plinkett reviews and never commented but wanted to drop my two cents:
You guys are right, who cares about an hour video about Godzilla X Kong? Personally, I would love if you did these more often. You always put me onto at least one or two great movies I wouldn't have noticed otherwise (checking out Lousy Carter and Snack Shack off these videos), and I really enjoy hearing your thoughts on "smaller" stuff like Abigail and Love Lies Bleeding. Covering Marvel movies etc was great when it was relevant, but there's only so much to say about that stuff at this point and I'm much more interested in seeing the channel evolve and "mature". Love your output regardless, thanks for all the laughs and insight.
Not ashamed to admit I went and seen Phantom Menace in theaters again. Probably my favorite SW movie if not, tied with 3!
Thank you for spreading the Holt McCallany love, Jay! I was that one kid who was waaaay into Alien³ when it came out. I read the novelization, memorized all the prisoner's names (just like I did with the previous film's Marines) and went out of my way to follow up on a lot of the amazing cast that was featured's other movies, before and since. Holt is one of many favorite actors from that film and has been my personal Clu Gulager or Cameron Mitchell growing up.
Love these catch up videos because 9 out of 10 times I haven't seen the movie
Dusk till dawn I had no idea it was about Vampires, I loved the surprise.
I liked the part when the alien hunter looks right at the camera and says "It's time to hunt the alien."
ABIGAIL felt like the greatest remake that Dark Castle never got to do. And seeing it in a nearly empty theater without having seen that much of the trailer was heaven on earth.
The thing from Alien Hunt looks like the love child of a xenomorph and pumpkinhead.
Last Stop in Yuma County is a solid 90 minute slice of film making. Great characters, great tension and definitely feels a bit like a 90s film. It’s weird, if it had been released in the 90s it would have been lost in the mix, but being made and released now it feels like a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend.
the amount of people thinking Star Wars prequels are disliked because of Plinkett's video is insane. It's usually terminally online 20yo who weren't alive when the movie came out. I was a shitty teenager so I liked the movie but pretty much every parent was talking shit about the movie, same for the nerds who ordered some merch from abroad (there weren't many stores for geeks in my country in early 2000s, pokemon cards was the only thing we were able to get on a regular basis) and tried to cancel their orders after watching the movie
Alien Hunt is getting more promotion than their Smiling Friends appearance
The fact that they keep ignoring Dune's existence is proof of their commitment to trolling their audience.
I love it.
What's a dune?
@Ripcookiethief It's a hill made of sand, but this is not what's important right now.
they completely ignored Godzilla Minus One. I thought they would have plenty to say about that one.
They are leaning heavily into the fartsy of their artsy-fartsy phase.
@@sdzhchannelI hate sand! It's coarse, rough and full of mind altering S P I C E
Many of the surviving tapes and DVDs from the Kim's Video library have made their way back to NYC. They're now on display at the lower Manhattan Alamo Drafthouse, where you can browse and rent films from the collection for free. I haven't watched the documentary yet, but am curious if this detail is included at the end.
"the zone of interest" was excellent and fits into mikes philosophy that not every movie needs to be lite or make one feel good.
Happy to see the Jim Cummings call-out!
Y’all should watch Thunder Road if you haven’t! It’s his best imo.
He was also prominent in the Barry finale.
CORRECTION YOU FUCKS: The main Kim's was open well into the 2000s and 2010s, I had friends who worked there and it was a great place to run into famous weirdos. It was a pretty uh...funky place and it did indeed have an insane amount of movies. The one in the East Village, where my friends worked and which was kind of the main hub, didn't close until 2014, so it was an iconic thing well into my young adulthood in 2000 and 2010s NYC. Sorry about the fucks thing,
Can't wait for the Half in the bag episode about Alien Hunt
Thanks again for the clear shot of the door! SOon all other things will fade. There will only be a door.... It's like poetry...
I love the scene in Alien Hunt where the alien goes
"It's Giger Time!"
So, the alien also can't pronounce Giger properly?
Somehow, Phantom Menace got back in theaters...
Just got the two disc bluray of Alien Hunt. Can’t wait to dig in , thanks for recommendation !
