It’s good. What if the matrix was a little weirder and more if an indie movie

I love me some Mads Mikkelson and I’ve been wanting to see this for a while, but the theaters playing it near me only had a version with German subtitles. It’s hitting streaming later this month though.

I just saw this last week and quite enjoyed it. I'm not normally drawn to these kind of historical melodramas, but the director previously hooked me with a movie called A Royal Affair (another kind of movie I'd not typically be too interested in).

Mike watching the blu ray and realizing the thing he devoted his life to was a hastily duct taped together flap of cardboard. Sobbing, he downs another ale and clicks purchase now on his next vintage crew uniform auction.

Mike could’ve solved cold fusion if he’d spent this level of attention to detail and tireless work ethic on something that wasn’t slipped together in a rush by a cast and crew that didn’t care what they were doing

Absolutely see it. The "whoah I'm Hacking the Cyber" aspect has probably aged like milk but it's a very good Dickensian (Philip K.) riddle

This goes to show that the only time we get plinkett reviews is when mike is inspired by something. Minor production errors are now his only muse.

I fully understand if Mike never wants to make that video

but TROS would be absolutely perfect for a Plinkett treatment. Maybe when the patreon money starts to dry up he can use it as a Break Glass In Case Of Emergency-type video

a TROS review would get tiresome after 10 minutes. How many times can plinkett say “this shits retarded because they didnt have a plan and JJ decided to make the movie move at light speed to try to trick the audience into not noticing”


“But your brain did”

sure okay

The prequels were important to analyze because they represented a surprising inflection point in the franchise, and one from its very same original creator.

It's obvious and very crass at this point to analyze why Star Wars is the way that it is, currently. Even the typically satisfying pastime of pissing on studio executives for being greedy is Bad, because those folks will lump those vids into "brand engagement" and still not listen to the salient points. You'd be doing them a favor and further solidifying its superficiality.

The only way theyll change and take big swings is if people just stop talking about it altogether. Otherwise your vids, views, and clicks are all just more cement for the foundation.

I got a hearty laugh when I saw what this video was. I was just watching some of the Picard Re:Views in the background the past couple days and this topic actually came up during their chat chat. Apparently Mike's had this project on the backburner for years, Rich asked about it and egged him on to complete it. And here we are.

A Rise of Skywalker plunkett review would be awful because Mike clearly doesn’t care at all about it, and it would just be the most phoned-in effort ever. That one YouTube vid someone posted weeks ago piecing together how it was a mess of production and trying to figure out why the insane plot points were strung together like they are was pretty interesting, and probably the last word we need on the subject

lol current twitter discourse is about how starship troopers failed at being satire because the bugs are “ugly evil mindless killers” and the humans are “beautiful and virtuous” and if you believe the humans should do anything other than wipe out all the bugs then you didn’t understand the movie.

It’s like people irl fell for the in-film propaganda. Holy smokes.
