I love how much effort must've been put into finding Rich Evans at the carnival in such a wide shot, and yet when you see it, it's so clearly him just by the way he's walking!
Remember that time Jay said they created spotlight edition to talk about movies at bigger length because they wanted to keep the regular episodes shorter? Thank god they seemingly stopped trying to keep them short.
Mike's story about being an extra totally checks out. A few years ago I was an extra on that Jake Gyllenhaal movie Southpaw. They had me dress up in a suit and sit in a stuffy, poorly ventilated auditorium at my college's convention center with around 70-100 other people on a hot summer day from 8 am till about 10 pm. And they also fed us pretty terrible food, but since I was in college, I didn't care. Finally at 10 pm, they all called us into this other large auditorium where they had the boxing ring set up, and the director was like, "Okay, here's what you're going to do. You're going to wait three seconds for Jake Gyllenhaal to punch this guy out and as soon as the other guy hits the mat, you're all going to get up and cheer." They did about three takes of that before they called it a day. The worst part is even though I filled out all my paperwork and everything, they still didn't pay me for the day. Hollywood is a terrible, terrible place. Even when they're shooting in Pennsylvania.
@@Parasiteve The cost to sue them would be far well and away above the amount I actually was supposed to get paid for the shoot. Work as an extra is 100% purely at will. Yes, you have to sign some legal documents (mostly a bunch of CYA stuff for Hollywood), but what do you think it is? There's no unions, no collective bargaining, no representation. You're little more than cattle. Actors have agents to go up to bat for them. You have no one. In all honesty, you're far better off working some menial, humiliating job (like, I dunno, Arby's or something) because as much as that sucks, at least it's regular work. Or at least closer to it than work as an extra will ever be (most of the time). The truth is that being an extra is the biggest scam in the world. The production staff want you to believe that the real reward--the real payment you're entitled to--is the privilege of stepping onto a movie set. They want you to have stars in your eyes. It saves them money that way. But you don't need me to tell you it's not worth it: Hollywood "glitz and glamor" doesn't keep the lights on.
Between the Mr. Bean segment, the Never Been Kissed story, and Mike pleading to consult with his best friend Rich Evans, this is the cutest and most charming episode of BOTW.
Honorable Men almost feels like a response from this creep after years of being hounded for his statutory rape charges and being kicked off the force. "Yeah, well, just wait until everyone sees my movie, where THE REAL story will be told!" "Those high school girls came on to ME, your honor! I've done nothing wrong! I'm an Honorable Men!"
I also super respect Jay's sheer outrage, at a couple points Mike seems to try to rein it in and Jay is not having it. Since I would probably have a similar response I really appreciate Jay's attempts to call it out for what it is
@@shamboholic I love Jay being the progressive, level-headed one of the bunch to balance out Rich’s role as the insane, politically incorrect (albeit endlessly lovable) gremlin.

waiting for them to parlay that + ‘Dick the Birthday Boy’ into an appearance on Drew Barrymore’s new daytime show. Gotta cash in those internet celebrity chips
I love that moment between Mike and Rich at the end when they’re choosing the best of the worst. It felt so brotherly and lighthearted. Rich seems like the only person on this show who can make Mike die of genuine laughter and their chemistry brings some real joy into my life.
I mean like any movie riffing based show all things considered there has been a handful of good movies/diamond in the rough they get to see out of nowhere. Just At wide intervals, scarce lol. Roar 1981 comes to mind
That was most definitely Rich Evans in that super wide shot. That's totally his "I'm not sure what to do, but I'll try to walk confidently while looking for Mike so we can get the hell out of here" walk.
The story of Mike calling the people working on Never Been Kissed, and angrily announcing that he and his friend Rich Evans are not coming back (as work as extras), after being tortured for hours with a carnival ride, is absolutely hilarious.
Seriously his lifetime of incredible notoriety deserves so much more credit than it's gotten so far. Take note academy this is what real talent looks and shrieks like.
Amidst all the normal jokes and usual ribbing of each other, and even with a slightly joking tone of voice, it's so wholesome to hear Mike say "I have to consult my very best friend of 25 years, Rich Evans."
I want someone to create an edit where Harrison Ford is doing the “enhance the photograph” scene in Blade Runner but is zooming in on Mike and Rich in Never Been Kissed.
@Popputan I'm so sick of people like you wanting to redistribute Rich Evans's wealth. Just say you have a pro Bauman bias man it's not that hard. And the fact of the matter is, Rich Evans is a very charitable man who recently made a sizeable donation to SaveTheDodo.
@@andrewgwilliam4831 God are you dull. Everybody knows that Rich Evans is a top tier actor appearing in such films as "Never Been Kissed", "Revenge of Nadine", and yes, "Space cop" which may I remind you was a cherished rehash of the original. People like you think you know everything and judge Rich Evans, so sickening.
"3:15am: Rich Evans seen wandering alone. He has lost his balloon" You'd be surprised at how many times this statement appears on police surveillance reports.
is this the police's description of his cover story that he uses to lure his victims away, or just what it looked like for him as a child to get separated from his parents
(Trailer guy voice) In a world, where a Schlub lusts after average college age girls but is old enough to be their grandfather, comes an opportunity for him to spend his life savings to make a movie to legally molest them.. “Allegedly: should’ve just bought a hooker, but these girls turn, him, onnnn”
I like that at absolutely no point during Mike's "I told them that me and Rich Evans were never coming back" story does he say or even imply that he asked Rich Evans what he wants to do. Mike just straight up took Rich Evans off that film.
Mike has a small bell on his night stand which he can ring to summon Rich. Where does Mike keep him between filmings I wonder? Oh, and it'd be super awesome if someone could identify the song at 6:30
That moment when Rich makes the toy store joke, and Jay just dies laughing while Mike completely is unphased and keeps on talking might be one of the funniest RLM moments of all time
Oh my god. I was a background extra in Honorable Men. Some extras were cast from local colleges (TCC and CNU if I recall right). I mean, as an 18 year old it all totally seemed legit, with real film cameras and boom mics and everything! Thankfully I’m uncredited; imagine having *that* follow you around the rest of your life. How embarrassing! 😅
Clearly why I didn’t get a more prominent role! A friend played one of the girls at the drug party. The director/writer/star was as big of a sex weirdo as you’d imagine, uncomfortably hitting on every girl he could corner.
To be fair, compared to some of the crap shown on BotW this looks like a professionally produced film. You have a SWAT team, a cast of dozens (of women), and competent cinematography. Would be easy to fall for as an extra. Then you look at the finished product and want to never see that director/writer/star again
"I'm a big tough cop, and all the women like me." In that reedy little voice Rich did absolutely kills me for some reason. Officer Ryan's Babe is such a creepy dweeb and that's exactly what he sounds like.
I feel like Mike and Rich’s names were put into a Hollywood Extras Blacklist database on the day of that phone call and this is why they’ve had to take their talents to Milwaukee to tear the industry down from the outside.
All jokes aside that's possible, i used to play an extra in commercials for years. Couple of times i answered them i couldn't come, never called me again
Funny thing about Never Been Kissed: it’s a movie where a teacher falls in love with who he thinks is a high school student. So the fact that the honorable Ryan’s Babe goes to see it totally tracks.
I really like the new format of showing each movie cover (light box display). It looks super professional, you get a nice 360 of the cover, and makes it easier to pause and read the back description. It's awesome that you guys are still improving and innovating RLM. We as fans appreciate it.
I can’t wait til Jay gets to explain Demon Wind to the group as it cuts to the viewing and their bewildered reactions. Whoever is sending in their Vinegar Syndrome Blu-ray’s deserves some praise as well. The Suckling episode was pure gold
I don't remember fuck all about Demon Wind except for the part where the main character turns into an elf. And a girl turned into a doll. Is that the movie or a nightmare i had?
To add to the creepiness of Honorable Men, Garrett Stewart Sayre was a college instructor at Christopher Newport University at the time of filming. That scene in the classroom was probably his classroom at CNU. You can find his picture in the 1998-99 Christopher Newport University Faces on page 19 (20 for the digital copy).
Wow, what a perfect opportunity for this cretin to find and groom inappropriately young women. Can you imagine how many of the students there this creep had inappropriate encounters with? "Honorable Men" indeed.
@@AwsOm3Fac3 mostly "pedophile" , which could be considered slander and grounds for legal action if not censored. They also censored "seventeen" a couple times.
I totally got a "Satan Killer" vibe from "Honorable Men", and to learn those guys are brothers makes me think that whole family should be investigated.
@@thecaptain4512 that movie had some sparks of genuinely fun schlock: ball cop, the final shootout, that stupid-looking tommy gun /shotgun hybrid called the street sweeper that the killer uses; those sparks did not produce a fire but they were there at least even though the movie (the quality of the video) looks like dog feces.
@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 And I didn't get a casually rapey, guy who pulls his GFs hair during sex and yells at her when she speaks out of line because he's the man of the house vibe from Satan Killer.
As someone who grew up in Hampton Roads, I can confirm the area is filled with "honorable men" who act just like them. I'd also like to ask everyone to take the "Spaghet Challenge" and contribute to the End VLDS campaign.
The director and star of Honorable Men being the brother of the director and star of The Satan Killer is a bigger plot twist than anything in Easy Kill.
When Rich Evans transcends this mortal plain- I have no doubt that clip of him dancing away in the Monkey suit "He's was just too big for a small world like ours" will conclude his memorial montage.
I still think about "you take the good, you take the bad, you take the ape, and there you have the facts of life" when I'm having a bad day at work, it never fails to cheer me up
Easy Kill was one of the notoriously bad "subsidy scandal" films made in South Africa in the 1980s where fly-by-night "producers" found loopholes in the subsidy system and exploited them and our local actors and crews.
it starts with the balloon full of helium but as the series goes, it's the same balloon and we see it slowly die and Rich's laugh gets higher in pitch. A picture of the Showbiz Pizza Bear has to also be on the balloon.
“He’s just too big for a small world like ours” ending tribute had me in actual tears. If this isn’t what they play when rich evans reaches the pearly gates it won’t be canon.
I do admit that there does seem to be bit of a different feelings when you go from talking to declaration voice. I notice myself making way more pronunciation errors if I have to raise my voice without yelling.
I didn't believe the guys but Garrett Sayre was legitimately 45 years old when Honorable Men was released. The fact that this below average-looking man needs to convince himself that women half his age want him is endlessly hilarious.
All kidding aside, the release of the newest Best of the Worst is a highlight to any evening. If I hadn't stumbled across one of your videos on my suggestion list, I'd be RLMless and what kind of life is that for a human being?
Thank you, Rob! Funny how I had just watched Rodney Dangerfield in Back To School where they had him in a hot tub surrounded by college girls and him picking up two girls to bring back to a bar table for he and Burt Young. They even topped that off by coupling Burt Young with one of those teen kids together as an item as they're in the bleachers during a diving meet. Considering Burt Young had to have been in his fifties at the time and looked like he rolls out of a clothes hamper every morning, that's super disturbing.
The most awkward moment of that kind was when Rich told them a story about a drunk uncle and the internet, Colin and Mike immediately and instinctively looked at each other in synchrony probably with just "WTF" as the only thought in their minds.
I think that was definately a time when Thin Blue Line culture was gestating so an uncomfortable vanity project by a cop isn't too much of a suprise to me.
After 10 years of watching this schlock and we're still getting unexpected nuggets like this. Imagine what more gold will drop in the next decade of RLM! Before it gets cut short by crippling diabetes, depression, and drunkenness that is...
(1:33:30) The only reason we have never seen more films like Honorable Men is because they are usually held as evidence pending an investigation into their director.
@@janus3555 It may have been legal for him to creep on the actresses in real life, but if I were a prosecutor looking for particularly damning character evidence in a statutory rape case...
@@drpibisback7680 Eh its very difficult to use character evidence as a prosecutor. Character evidence as a whole is highly controversial with most legal scholars admitting how easy it can be abused. Any evidence can be abused but this is easier than most. Prosecutors would not use this as evidence. The only possible exception would be if the guy himself tried to bring character evidence in his favour. Even then this movie is of dubious value. The justice system tries(for the most part) to not give in to easy outrage and anger. It doesn't always work but it tries. With good reason. Once it gives in to the mob its over. Using such a tape would almost certainly do more harm and make the prosecutor seem like a tool. By that logic if an actor known for playing villains in movies got arrested for assault the prosecution can simply use those movies as evidence. Its a slippery slope and no one wants to do it.
@@janus3555 Sure the actors are older than 16 but the implication is such a thinly veiled implication that it might as well be a film about some shitbag trying to excuse his pedophilia.

@Popputan I'm so sick of people like you wanting to redistribute Rich Evans's wealth. Just say you have a pro Bauman bias man it's not that hard. And the fact of the matter is, Rich Evans is a very charitable man who recently made a sizeable donation to SaveTheDodo.
@@Dohboy1619 You people are so naive. He only did that to reduce his taxes. Why else do you think he was in "Space Cop"?
@@andrewgwilliam4831 God are you dull. Everybody knows that Rich Evans is a top tier actor appearing in such films as "Never Been Kissed", "Revenge of Nadine", and yes, "Space cop" which may I remind you was a cherished rehash of the original. People like you think you know everything and judge Rich Evans, so sickening.
Every day I hope for a Best of the Worst.
Today’s a good day.
This was a really good episode.
Amén!!!
Every day is the best of the worst if you are me
@Alex sliva here here bother
Amen!
"3:15am: Rich Evans seen wandering alone. He has lost his balloon"
You'd be surprised at how many times this statement appears on police surveillance reports.
OOOHHH MY GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAwwd
is this the police's description of his cover story that he uses to lure his victims away, or just what it looked like for him as a child to get separated from his parents
"Honourable Men" should just be called "Allegedly"
Why not both "Allegedly Honourable Men" has a nice ring to it.
Because of the implication
For the inevitable future court proceedings?
(Trailer guy voice) In a world, where a Schlub lusts after average college age girls but is old enough to be their grandfather, comes an opportunity for him to spend his life savings to make a movie to legally molest them.. “Allegedly: should’ve just bought a hooker, but these girls turn, him, onnnn”
Take it easy there Mark Antony.
The Never Been Kissed wiki page has Mike and Rich in the casting credits.
That was fast
@@Timbobjr RLM fans do the A*P*E's work.
It was the first episode of Half in the Bag.
OH MY GAAAAAAAWWWWDDDD!!!!
So does the imdb page 🤣
I like that at absolutely no point during Mike's "I told them that me and Rich Evans were never coming back" story does he say or even imply that he asked Rich Evans what he wants to do. Mike just straight up took Rich Evans off that film.
"I remember you in braids and braces" ick, I wish I had never heard that line.
Hoping never to hear it again.
@Nícolas Mallmann SWEET JESUS
Chris Hansen is on his way, just go ahead and take a seat
@Nícolas Mallmann Wait, what the hell is that line from?
Braids and Braces straight up sounds like a porn series.
I love how Mike has always controlled Rich Evans' career. "ME AND RICH EVANS ARE NOT SHOWING UP" Bro did you even ask Rich first?
I thought the same thing lmfao! Rich is his loyal, beloved best friend and pet.
Mike is the school ground bully who became best friend.
Still I feel Mike wouldn't let anybody else mess with Rich like he does🙂
Mike has a small bell on his night stand which he can ring to summon Rich.
Where does Mike keep him between filmings I wonder?
Oh, and it'd be super awesome if someone could identify the song at 6:30
I just like how he keeps repeating Rich's name, so they know at least one of the extras who bailed.
Nah, he's on a retainer from Mr Evans to deal with this sort of thing.
That moment when Rich makes the toy store joke, and Jay just dies laughing while Mike completely is unphased and keeps on talking might be one of the funniest RLM moments of all time
I think you may have watched too much Star Trek. It's "unfazed" - to be honest, it took me a full minute to realize this myself.
1:09:25 love that moment
Oh my god. I was a background extra in Honorable Men. Some extras were cast from local colleges (TCC and CNU if I recall right). I mean, as an 18 year old it all totally seemed legit, with real film cameras and boom mics and everything!
Thankfully I’m uncredited; imagine having *that* follow you around the rest of your life. How embarrassing! 😅
Funny, you don't look like a blonde female in your profile pic....
Clearly why I didn’t get a more prominent role!
A friend played one of the girls at the drug party. The director/writer/star was as big of a sex weirdo as you’d imagine, uncomfortably hitting on every girl he could corner.
Well Timothy Brown, now IMDB is here to fix this situation!
To be fair, compared to some of the crap shown on BotW this looks like a professionally produced film. You have a SWAT team, a cast of dozens (of women), and competent cinematography. Would be easy to fall for as an extra. Then you look at the finished product and want to never see that director/writer/star again
Hopefully this injustice will be rectified and you’ll now be added to the IMDb page as an extra.
1:20 almost 10 years in and it still gets me
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPE
JAAAAAWWWWSS
Unrelated to the initial comment but holy shit Mike’s Nixon impression at 30:23 lmao
make a 10 h version of rich evan sounds
Wow Rich. You held that aids longer than Magic Johnson!
"I'm a big tough cop, and all the women like me." In that reedy little voice Rich did absolutely kills me for some reason. Officer Ryan's Babe is such a creepy dweeb and that's exactly what he sounds like.
I feel like Mike and Rich’s names were put into a Hollywood Extras Blacklist database on the day of that phone call and this is why they’ve had to take their talents to Milwaukee to tear the industry down from the outside.
What talents?
All jokes aside that's possible, i used to play an extra in commercials for years. Couple of times i answered them i couldn't come, never called me again
men who write themselves into "black tank top" movies are just the 40+ year old man version of teens who write themselves into Y/N fanfiction
at least Y/N fanfiction is free.
a Marty Sue, if you will
@@swineflu6523 I believe the technical term is Marty Stu.
I've also heard Gary Stu
Or Stephanie Meyer
Funny thing about Never Been Kissed: it’s a movie where a teacher falls in love with who he thinks is a high school student. So the fact that the honorable Ryan’s Babe goes to see it totally tracks.
OH MY GAAAAAWWWWWWWWD
I really like the new format of showing each movie cover (light box display). It looks super professional, you get a nice 360 of the cover, and makes it easier to pause and read the back description.
It's awesome that you guys are still improving and innovating RLM. We as fans appreciate it.
I can’t wait til Jay gets to explain Demon Wind to the group as it cuts to the viewing and their bewildered reactions. Whoever is sending in their Vinegar Syndrome Blu-ray’s deserves some praise as well. The Suckling episode was pure gold
God I hope they do Demon Wind soon. They'll have a fucking field day.
I don't remember fuck all about Demon Wind except for the part where the main character turns into an elf. And a girl turned into a doll. Is that the movie or a nightmare i had?
@@Madhouse_Media you don't remember the one character who is a magician that does karate????
@@DooLittleDoesNothing I remember nothing but elf man and doll lady.
3:36 *Rich calling the city of Inchon "Icon" is like a South Korean person calling St. Louis "Saint Eloise-cole"*
This joke deserves to be seen
To be fair we really should build a shrine to Eloise-cole to pacify her spirit.
To add to the creepiness of Honorable Men, Garrett Stewart Sayre was a college instructor at Christopher Newport University at the time of filming. That scene in the classroom was probably his classroom at CNU. You can find his picture in the 1998-99 Christopher Newport University Faces on page 19 (20 for the digital copy).
This is the kind of obscure sleuthing I read RLM comments for
Wow, what a perfect opportunity for this cretin to find and groom inappropriately young women. Can you imagine how many of the students there this creep had inappropriate encounters with? "Honorable Men" indeed.
Can you also explain what the words they kept censoring were?
@@AwsOm3Fac3 mostly "pedophile" , which could be considered slander and grounds for legal action if not censored.
They also censored "seventeen" a couple times.
@@AwsOm3Fac3 They actually didn't do a very good job at censoring it if u listen carefully, leaving in the last half a lot of the time lol
I totally got a "Satan Killer" vibe from "Honorable Men", and to learn those guys are brothers makes me think that whole family should be investigated.
I'd say satan killer is the better of the two. Ball cop carried that movie 😆
@@thecaptain4512 that movie had some sparks of genuinely fun schlock: ball cop, the final shootout, that stupid-looking tommy gun /shotgun hybrid called the street sweeper that the killer uses; those sparks did not produce a fire but they were there at least even though the movie (the quality of the video) looks like dog feces.
@@g.sergiusfidenas6650 And I didn't get a casually rapey, guy who pulls his GFs hair during sex and yells at her when she speaks out of line because he's the man of the house vibe from Satan Killer.
As someone who grew up in Hampton Roads, I can confirm the area is filled with "honorable men" who act just like them. I'd also like to ask everyone to take the "Spaghet Challenge" and contribute to the End VLDS campaign.
The director and star of Honorable Men being the brother of the director and star of The Satan Killer is a bigger plot twist than anything in Easy Kill.
“We are going to make a drug deal now Mr. Herman”

When Rich Evans transcends this mortal plain- I have no doubt that clip of him dancing away in the Monkey suit "He's was just too big for a small world like ours" will conclude his memorial montage.
You've seen him on the mortal plain, now see him on the mortal TUNDRA
Before someone in a Pacman shirt takes a dump and says 'Manners - Who Needs Them?'
I still think about "you take the good, you take the bad, you take the ape, and there you have the facts of life" when I'm having a bad day at work, it never fails to cheer me up
I love how they have coined the term "black tanktop movie"
It joins "The Coupon Shot" as something that I pray will enter the film jargon pantheon.
"Shooting the rodeo" too!
they would have to because no one else has seen enough of them to observe the phenomenon
I've heard 'memberberries' pop up outside rlm but only among other RUclips movie people.
Somebody added Mike and Rich leaving the “Never Been Kissed” production on IMDB trivia 🤣🤣
RLM fans work fast
Also like how so far 154 out of 154 people have found that interesting
Easy Kill was one of the notoriously bad "subsidy scandal" films made in South Africa in the 1980s where fly-by-night "producers" found loopholes in the subsidy system and exploited them and our local actors and crews.
The worst thing to come out of Apartheid minus all the other parts that were worse.
Intentional or not when Josh pulled the VHS from behind Rich, that was a real surprise.👍
I think it was set up. He looks at the spot before Rich says the name of the film
You guys should totally make a new series called "Me and Rich Evans", where you talk about your lives and Rich Evans is also there, with no balloon.
it starts with the balloon full of helium but as the series goes, it's the same balloon and we see it slowly die and Rich's laugh gets higher in pitch.
A picture of the Showbiz Pizza Bear has to also be on the balloon.
I've only been watching Red Letter Media for a week or so now and "AAAAAAPE" has already worked its way into my vocabulary

The "Never Been Kissed" story was my favorite part of this. So glad that the poster was in that movie. I got a big kick out of it.
Hey man, Rowan Atkinson could totally play a suave sophisticated gentleman in a double role.
I've always wanted to see him play an assassin. He looks absolutely sinister when not smiling.
@@manpotion he had an icy cold glare whenever he played Blackadder the Third as pissed off.
Those Mr. Bean scenes cut in were absolutely perfect.
“He’s just too big for a small world like ours” ending tribute had me in actual tears. If this isn’t what they play when rich evans reaches the pearly gates it won’t be canon.
Rich: flubs the name Frank Stalone
Also Rich: says "cataclysmic climax" perfectly
Classic Rich Evans.
I do admit that there does seem to be bit of a different feelings when you go from talking to declaration voice. I notice myself making way more pronunciation errors if I have to raise my voice without yelling.
I was sure that Mike was gonna say something but nope, nothing
He's a lot more familiar with the latter.
They could have just chosen "Attacking Primate Entity", but nope.
Experiment would've thickened the plot
You don’t like monstEr ?
@@Trevin_Taylor To be honest for this movie I think monstEr was the perfect choice.
Cleverness of any kind was too much to ask for that rip-off movie.
I prefer attAcking aPe crEature.
I didn't believe the guys but Garrett Sayre was legitimately 45 years old when Honorable Men was released. The fact that this below average-looking man needs to convince himself that women half his age want him is endlessly hilarious.
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 Getting jacked means money. I don't think he could afford it.
And super creepy too. There is a reason why he casted himself.
If Mike had stayed on the phone he could have spoken with Raja Gosnell, the director of Home Alone 3! What a waste.
Not to mention Scooby-Doo and The Smurfs!
The fact that Rich and Mike where extras in "Never Been Kissed" is not something I thought I needed in my life. But I do.
It warms my heart to hear these little stories of Mike's and Rich Evan's long friendship.
Mike and Rich's friendship is so beautiful. Despite the constant digs they take at each other, they're still always there for each other.
Rich shouting APE for that long was actually really impressive
Right? I was legitimately impressed he could do that. lol

All kidding aside, the release of the newest Best of the Worst is a highlight to any evening. If I hadn't stumbled across one of your videos on my suggestion list, I'd be RLMless and what kind of life is that for a human being?
well said sir!
Thank you, Rob! Funny how I had just watched Rodney Dangerfield in Back To School where they had him in a hot tub surrounded by college girls and him picking up two girls to bring back to a bar table for he and Burt Young. They even topped that off by coupling Burt Young with one of those teen kids together as an item as they're in the bleachers during a diving meet. Considering Burt Young had to have been in his fifties at the time and looked like he rolls out of a clothes hamper every morning, that's super disturbing.
And yet, just like having been kissed, there was a time in everybody's life when they had never been RLMed...
Did you watch the 2 lost Episodes?
@@CWargh63 good try.
Gf: Watch a romantic comedy with me?
Me: No, I don't like romantic comedies
Me: Watches this episode of BOTW
Me: Let's watch Never Been Kissed
24:20 I love how they both just looked at each other and knew Rich messed up XD
It’s stylistically designed to be shot that way
I love how Jay messed up by combining the two shows into "Family Pains" right after
The most awkward moment of that kind was when Rich told them a story about a drunk uncle and the internet, Colin and Mike immediately and instinctively looked at each other in synchrony probably with just "WTF" as the only thought in their minds.
Frank Stallone's character needed a "am I the bad guy?" moment while he was sniffing the shoes, but that movie was probably pre-falling down.
So does that dishonerable cop
@@mazurbeem I was about to say
The most shocking part of this story wasn’t the never been kissed story. It was that honorable men was 2004 movie!?!
I think that was definately a time when Thin Blue Line culture was gestating so an uncomfortable vanity project by a cop isn't too much of a suprise to me.
It definitely has a 1991 quality about it
That sounds impossible
@@Honarius1 what's thin blue line culture?😐
@@mrpurple11it’s how cops have a totally unjustified sense of self importance. Like “Were the thin blue line between society and anarchy!”
Oh that “Honorable Men” movie made me feel as nauseous as Mike must have felt while riding that ride for 2 hours
1:11:23 The “Never Been Kissed” extra story with Mike and Rich begins here.
After 10 years of watching this schlock and we're still getting unexpected nuggets like this. Imagine what more gold will drop in the next decade of RLM! Before it gets cut short by crippling diabetes, depression, and drunkenness that is...
Thank you so much for this comment
How have Mike and Rich never talked about being extras on Never Been Kissed before? That story was fucking great.
APE flipping off the camera and Rich being so dumbfounded he doesn’t even give off a whiff of his iconic laugh, you know it’s peak comedy
Jay almost said "Family Pains" but corrected himself, and now I'm forever haunted by the words never spoken.
Family Pains and Growing Ties; classic shows
These guys have acute old factory senses.
It's where they were all manufactured
Beans can create a foul odor...
Very gutsy move from that woman, but suicide is futile. Not even death is an escape from Frank Stallone.
(1:33:30) The only reason we have never seen more films like Honorable Men is because they are usually held as evidence pending an investigation into their director.
I mean, they're all clearly much older than 16, so I don't see how it's an issue of legality.
@@janus3555 It may have been legal for him to creep on the actresses in real life, but if I were a prosecutor looking for particularly damning character evidence in a statutory rape case...
@@drpibisback7680 Eh its very difficult to use character evidence as a prosecutor. Character evidence as a whole is highly controversial with most legal scholars admitting how easy it can be abused. Any evidence can be abused but this is easier than most. Prosecutors would not use this as evidence. The only possible exception would be if the guy himself tried to bring character evidence in his favour. Even then this movie is of dubious value. The justice system tries(for the most part) to not give in to easy outrage and anger. It doesn't always work but it tries. With good reason. Once it gives in to the mob its over. Using such a tape would almost certainly do more harm and make the prosecutor seem like a tool. By that logic if an actor known for playing villains in movies got arrested for assault the prosecution can simply use those movies as evidence. Its a slippery slope and no one wants to do it.
@@janus3555 Sure the actors are older than 16 but the implication is such a thinly veiled implication that it might as well be a film about some shitbag trying to excuse his pedophilia.
@@florinivan6907honestly never thought about it quite like that, thanks for giving me a new perspective
