A movie entirely made up of disconnected scenes of rape; forced auto-cannabalism and drunken piss covered debauchery? *Goons knock me over to get into the peepshow*

I feel It's like Mike was saying that its harder to improvise a comedy sci fi moreso than him saying it wasn't possible. Much like Mike I am not gonna bother to go back and check the script.

Gammatron 64 posted:Wait, what? Since when were the Ghostbusters role models for anyone? Peter Venkman was a creep and a conman, Ray was a manchild, Egon was an emotionless weirdo and all of them were just in it for the money. Winston was probably the only decent human being in the crew and he was still just in it for the money. They didn't bust ghosts out of the kindness of their hearts, they just wanted fame, fortune and pussy. Seems like you answered your own question here.

Weirdly the group I left the plinkett GB review with the most sympathy for were the actors (I am told somehow this is a gender neutral term lol) It all stems from that moment where they were like "Do you think we'll finally get the firehouse" and then they kinda all looked to the camera after they begged for an action-cut to it and at that moment I felt like they really wanted this film to be more... .ghostbustery but unfortunately the only actual decisions they were being allowed to make were how many references to won-tons they could fit in. Also I choose to beleve that the director had no control over the inclusion of pringles in his movie because that is way funnier and implies the actors coulda just slowly snuck the props and setpieces from the original ghostbusters onto the set day by day and totally got away with it.

One time I read a biography of John Candy and it had a whole chapter about how if you crossed him he would get all quiet and tell you that he was putting you in John's Gallows and then he would never speak with you again. I remember even as a babby being all "What a loving goon."

I actually dont buy the whole "The original was so good that no matter what a remake/sequel/unterseaboot would be hated" because when has that actually been true ever? People want to like things. They want to like things that they have liked before. They really do. So make them something good instead of bad and watch as they like the thing they liked before.... again!

I can't wait for Mike to re-boot the plinkett cinematic universe with a soft-sequel to his Ghostbusters 2016 review. It will have a lot of the same story elements as the first mr plinkett's Ghostbusters 2016 review but it will also have some of the same actors making cameros so it will technically still be in the original Mr Plinkett Timeline (TM)(Copyright 2018)(Reserved)(PatentPending)

Yaws posted:Jack is also the only person on RLM with the stones to denounce the Nazis in Charlottesville. He's OK with me for that Jack is definitely a moron but he has always been a moron with his heart in the right place and that is what really won me over on him. Someone mentioned a few pages back that RLM newbie they introduce hates jack instantly and that's because jack hate it like RLM fan level 2. Josh hate is level 10

Echo Chamber posted:Just wondering... what do people think of Freaks and Geeks? If we're supposed to take that one line from the GB review seriously, Mike either doesn't like it or seemed pretty indifferent towards it. I meant to respond to this. Freaks and Geeks falls into a category of internet love that I term "Coulda been" where most of the enjoyment comes from imagining the potential future outcomes of the really good setup episodes. From what I remember I thought freaks and geeks was genuinely decent but nothing special. Firefly is also in this category and I point to Serenity as my evidence that season 2 of firefly would be loving terrible. There isn't a movie equivalent for freaks and geeks but I assume they woulda hosed it up somehow. As to why nobody is talking about it when mentioning fieg successes; it got loving canceled.

I actually didn't dislike season 1 of firefly it had some great moments. Lemmie think of some right now. I liked the ship and the set they used for the ship. I liked the dumb mercenary. you can't take the sky from meeeeee I think I totally skipped some train robbery episode and I feel happier for it tho

counterfeitsaint posted:Firefly was a lot better when it first aired and felt really original. Which explains why over the last 15 years or whatever every show has ripped off every idea Firefly had, so now it feels hackneyed and unoriginal. what are some shows that ripped off firefly. Is it just the bit about the noble prostitute; respected and feared by all in space society? that was always pretty lol

Oohhboy I have the exact opposite feeling where from a tv-show perspective lost was really good except it was a good drama with light hearted moments and not a good science fiction. The end sucked to be sure. Westworld on the other hand I think is pretty much entirely rote garbage. Here is the beauty of it tho! I still think you are really fun and cool Oohhboy it is great that we have diverse opinions here because honestly none of it matters!  Edit- I hosed up your name when writing this and im man enough to admit it

oohhboy posted:Even if you think the plot was rote garbage you cannot deny the excellent execution and master-class acting. It is not often you want a character to show up just so they can talk with other characters or just simply monologue. That mid season reveal had me going "HOLY poo poo". I'm glad the actors are working their hardest!
