If this guy does alternate history stuff like his handle suggests then I do not want to live in his alternate history where Episode 2 is apparently beloved.

What a movie is about is more important than how it's told, even if how it tells everything is done so badly it ends up undermining or contradicting the point it wanted to make.

That is why episode 2 is brilliant you see because it's about how democracy dies and that is Important and you are a Good Person and Very Smart for watching it and understanding its Message.

Child trafficking is bad, and that’s why if you don’t love The Sound Of Freedom you are a child rapist.

Yeah, even making a movie itself seems incredibly inefficient. Why not only make trailers, just as easy to tweet about and take a lot less time to watch.

honestly biannual 2 parter catchup videos are all thats needed to say everything they want to about the films worth saying things about. dont need a hitb for each new release they see with 10 minutes of skits each

They'd start making GBS threads on Ebert because he'd give movies with big tits a positive review but not offer them the same courtesy.

the experience of actually watching space cop really soured me on their style of comedic line delivery. for all they talk about how much they love dry humor (like this lousy carter thing) in their own stuff they cant move past goofy facetiousness being the whole joke. love em but love complaining too

Ask me about calling people racist because I failed geography.

The idea that all star wars branded entertainment products should be completely, relentlessly shithouse.

Which, when you think about it, is actually the most consistently adhered to idea in human history.

A lot of things about star wars fan hangers-on, the cartoons, and etc really crystalized for me when I was posting my absolutely anodyne negative takes about the ahsoka show in TV IV and a big cartooner replied saying they wished I would die

I know nothing about the show but as a RLM thread regular I wish that you live.

Rewatching the Kill Point BotW and it feels like one of the most RLM movies, in that it has both Leo Fong (Low Blow) and a Cameron Mitchell that isn't sitting in a chair the entire movie. And both are outstaged by loving Nighthawk.

Jay isn't watchlist material, he just wants to watch mature buff mastodon dudes work their stuff, nothing weird about that.

I think jay edited this episode. I don't know why. jay and mike have slightly different editing styles that I don't know enough about editing to put into words but this feels like a jay episode. I've been honing my editor credit prediction craft for months and since this is a two-parter and the second part hasn't co e out yet I can finally make a prediction. will be awaiting the part 2 credits with bated breath

the star wars trademark (this goes for all the films starting with a new hope) is to trick the audience into thinking there are themes and ideas by having really good music
