I legit like both of those movies. Not everyone who likes things you don't is faking or pretentious or whatever. They just have different taste and that's okay, my man.

The Book of Mormon was a good time. It was the only musical I've ever paid to see or even considered paying to see. Even with matinee pricing, it really is nuts how expensive Broadway shows are. I like the point Lindsay Ellis makes in that Rent video about how these Big Issues plays are trying to sell their message to people who can't even receive it because the show is too expensive for them. Instead they're selling revolution or whatever to a bunch of upper middle class whites. Comedic musicals are the only kind I can sometimes tolerate because the whole concept of people inexplicably singing and dancing about everything - including AIDS - is so loving stupid that it's sort of baffling sometimes that anyone takes it seriously. I know Hamilton is supposed to be so amazing and maybe it is but every clip I've seen looks so corny. Like some Epic Rap Battles of History kind of poo poo. It's super cool and not at all dorky to be rapping about the Constitution.

A lurker who finally got up the courage to post only because pics of Jessi might be on the line. She does look great though in that new video though.

I took a look at Josh's Twitter like 2 or 3 years ago when someone posted it in a thread and it was all just him bitching about Republicans. I didn't really disagree with anything I read but who could possibly give a poo poo about that dude's political opinions. I can't imagine how insufferable he's become since Trump happened. Jay just tweets about cool movies (that I often end up watching and enjoying because we have 96% identical taste in movies) and Jack tweets Pre Rec stuff and photos of his adorable cat, Biscuit. Mike has not tweeted in like 5 years and Rich doesn't have a Twitter account. This has been my review of RLM's individual Twitter accounts. edit: I have no idea what the purpose of this post was. These brownies turned out a lot stronger than I expected.

Yeah, I gotta admit that I zoned out a few times during that last one. Too much listing stuff in a monotone - which has been used to great effect in the past but went on too long in this one. He was listing a bunch of things that happened in the original trilogy (I think he was trying to refute something about ring theory?) and it was like holy poo poo, dude, we get it. It's probably gonna be the only one I watch just once. I don't think it was a "pile of crap" though. There was still some entertainment there.

I mainly just liked Neon Demon because it looked so pretty (also, lesbos ofc). It's eye candy. It's a good movie to watch while high and just let it wash over you. Like Jay was saying, it's basically classily shot sleaze. Anyone taking it real seriously and treating it like some meaningful, deep art looks pretty pretentious.

I saw the Greasy Strangler in the theater as part of a Halloween movie marathon and it was kinda magical because of the audience reaction. I don't know if I would've found it quite as enjoyable without people yelling out "what the gently caress??" at appropriate points.

PostNouveau posted:Went back to watch them play 1-2-Switch, and boyyyyyyy does that look awful. I can't believe they charge $50 for that. One of the few pre rec streams worth watching just for Rich's bafflement. I haven't watched in like a year and what does the video start with? Them bitching about having technical issues. I swear to God every stream I've seen has begun with these guys having problems setting things up even though they've done it dozens of times. It's pretty amazing.

I haven't watched any other streams other than Pre Rec so I just assumed it was because Jack was a retard. I feel bad for ragging on him so bad in the chat in the early days. Except it was funny, so no I don't.

Speaking of which, it's weird to me that Mike thinks the average age of the audience is like 14. It might be because he doesn't really interact with the fans anymore like the rest of them do. I remember once we did a quick poll in the pre rec stream chat and the average there was late 20's. I'm sure they have plenty of young fans but how do you even get like half of the references they make if you're a tiny baby?

Plenty of people have begged to see the unedited footage of them watching movies during BotW. The guys will be like, "trust us, it's not that exciting - the only good stuff is what you see in the video. Most of it would just be us sitting there silently" but people say they don't care and want to watch it anyway. I have no idea why. Even I wouldn't wanna watch that. Probably. Zahgaegun posted:I'm pretty sure that Youtube delivers some good demographic numbers to the creators, if that's what he thinks I'd bet he's right. Yeah, like I said, I'm sure they do have plenty of young viewers, it's just that I'd be surprised if they made up the majority. Mike could also be exaggerating for comedic effect because for us old people, even people in their early 20's can seem like little kids.

Haven't seen a more blatant example of a character being designed specifically to create boners in a while. It actually surprised me, like, "oh, we're still doing that?" because it seems like super progressive Hollywood should be past that if they were really as super progressive as they claim. I'm not personally offended or anything - just seems a bit hypocritical.

OMGVBFLOL posted:that about fixed me for trusting what anime people say abput anime Yeah, when I asked what's a good adult (meaning without loli panty shots and annoying teens) anime for people who don't like anime, I was told Berserk was all dark and gritty and doesn't have stupid anime-isms. So I gave it a shot and lol nope. So then I asked if there's any anime that's just like a normal movie about whatever but it just happens to be animated. I was told Satoshi Kon was good so I watched Perfect Blue and it was okay but it probably wouldn't be considered anything special and praised as much if it was live-action. It was good for anime, basically. So, I'm done This is true though, tbf.

If there was some way of me knowing back then that 20 years later the series still wouldn't be even close to being finished, I never would've picked up that first book and today I could just be a casual show watcher like everyone else. I'm glad we'll at least get some kind of conclusion - even if I'm pretty sure it won't be great. I don't know that whatever ending GRRM could've theoretically written would've been all that amazing either though. There's almost no way to successfully pay off that much build up.

Faffel posted:Who gave a poo poo about an ending of GoT anyway? It was obviously leading up to some dumb good/evil battle and everything cool was wrapped up or forgotten about by the end of book 3 or so. I mean, you're not wrong about the main overarching plot, but there are still lots of smaller and more interesting plot threads that have yet to come together in the books. Because of how much time has passed though, the internet has pretty well figured out where most of that stuff is going too.

Blue Star posted:Why is A Song of Ice and Fire held in such high esteem by people, anyway? I mean, its okay I guess. But people act like its so brilliant and unique, but the books are pretty much like every other modern fantasy series. The problem is that everyone compares it to Tolkien who had Good vs Evil, so ASoIaF looks more nuanced in comparison. But poo poo, who the gently caress unironically writes about Dark Lords and perfect infallible good guys anymore? I dunno, maybe those are still being written, I actually dont read that much, LOL. But if they are still being written, they dont seem to be as popular. Nowadays everyone brags about how their stories have shades of grey and more complicated conflicts where nobody is pure good or evil, and everythings all gritty and realistic and absolutely no "Dark Lords" or perfect elves. Thats what it seems like, anyway. Somebody correct me if Im wrong. GRRM was a big contributor to the modern trend of grimdark fantasy. It's all like that now because he helped make it that way. When AGoT came out it was kind of a revelation because most fantasy before it was PG-13 (tops) and even more formulaic than now. Obviously, reading it now, it doesn't seem as "brilliant and unique." I'm in no way comparing it to Citizen Kane, but it's kind of like if you watched Citizen Kane for the first time today and didn't see what's supposed to be so special about it because you don't know that the reason it looks like so many other movies is because it's the reason all those other movies look that way to begin with.

a bone to pick posted:I don't mind Landis at all and I tihnk if you dislike him you're a homophobe Do you know that sometimes people just find people kind of irritating and there's no deep reason to it? People in this thread always say stuff like "people who don't like Jack/Josh hate him because they are just like him" which is such a bizarre leap of logic and weirdly defensive like they're taking it personally. People have different tastes and maybe Max Landis (or Jack or Josh) just isn't everybody's kind of person. He reads less gay to me than he does bipolar anyway. I don't hate the guy but I can fully understand why he annoys people because he's a bit much at times.
