Acanthus: Starwars Prequels Redlettermedia Reviews

Acanthus 01.14.12	1's great, 2's a pretty good start to the industrial year, 3/4 are old favorites and 5 is what I'm looking forward to.
Trebor. 01.14.12	Plinkett is a character not a troll voice
Acanthus 01.14.12	Thanks for the clarification, I'm in the midst of the 2d review now.
Electric City 01.14.12	fucking love this. best time sink on the internet
Trebor. 01.14.12	You should watch Half In The Bag too if you want to see what the guy is like out of character
iambandersnatch 01.14.12	Funny you post this, I just watched those videos a few days ago. I always thought phantom menace was eh but never really thought about why until he pointed out the huge amount of dumb shit
Acanthus 01.14.12	I might have to do that sir
Trebor. 01.14.12	MY GRANDKIDS LEAVE THEIR SHIT IN MY BIN
Electric City 01.14.12	every character is really dumb. but who's the dum-best?
Acanthus 01.14.12	The basement scenes are good, I loved when the cops showed up personally.
Trebor. 01.14.12	Oh no, the timeline is changing again Now my cat is my second ex wife
Ire 01.14.12	some guy named william shakesman once said "brevity is the soul of wit"
Nagrarok 01.14.12	Prequel reviews couldn't be more accurate, made me realize how bad they really were.
Trebor. 01.14.12	Fuckin Rick Berman Wait that's not Rick Berman What is it with Ricks?
Acanthus 01.14.12	@Ire - Good point, though it's rather novel to have a review almost as long as the film.
Nagrarok 01.14.12	Turns out it really takes that long to point out everything that's horribly wrong about them.
ZilbelPing 01.14.12	"Fuckin Rick Berman Wait that's not Rick Berman What is it with Ricks?" That part killed me.
Deviant. 01.14.12	Oh my god, just watching these for the first time
Trebor. 01.14.12	oh my god where have you been
Satellite 01.14.12	best thing on the internet
Satellite 01.14.12	HITB is excellent as well. apart from being hilarious, they are excellent critics.
Acanthus 01.14.12	I only clicked on them at a whim today, glad I did.
ZilbelPing 01.14.12	"Oh my god, just watching these for the first time" Same. These are awesome and true.
Trebor. 01.14.12	HALF IN THE BAG Part 2 Who do these guys think they are, George Lucas?
Ire 01.14.12	HALF IN THE BAG why the fuck are you watching this?
Trebor. 01.14.12	Just the way he says Half In The Bag makes every video a 5 out of 5
Deviant. 01.14.12	Chicken leads to egg Egg leads to omelet Omelet leads to fecal urgency
Acanthus 01.14.12	George Lucas didn't ruin my childhood, fucking polio did!
Trebor. 01.14.12	lol, love that line
ZilbelPing 01.14.12	Just finished the episode 1 review. Will watch episode 2 and 3 some other day. Fucking awesome.
Trebor. 01.14.12	The Star Trek ones are amazing too but I guess they wouldn't be as good if you weren't into TNG
Acanthus 01.14.12	I don't know how much review watching I can handle, will finish the Star Wars ones tonight however.
Trebor. 01.14.12	COP DOG
Hyperion1001 01.14.12	cop dog best movie
Satellite 01.14.12	star wars the phantom menace is the most disappointing thing since my son... and while my son eventually hanged himself in the bathroom of a gas station, the unfortunate reality of the star wars prequels is that they'll be around forever.
Trebor. 01.14.12	Point is, I'm still not sure what the [Trade Federation] ships were there to do. And don't any of you faggots tell me it was explained more in the novelization or some Star Wars BOOK! What matters is the MOVIE!!"
Satellite 01.14.12	so anakin kneels before monster mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.
Electric City 01.14.12	^thats one of the best ones
Yazz_Flute 01.14.12	I was literally just about to post that quote, Satty. Had me laughing for a minutes when I first heard it.
Acanthus 01.14.12	Just got to that part, line's gold.
kris. 01.14.12	"so anakin kneels before monster mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash." laughed so goddamn hard at that part
Deviant. 01.14.12	And Hollywood executives have a term for that demographic, they call it the "urban market". And the "urban market" stole my television, so I know they like movies
Cerbyrus 01.14.12	Special effects are just a tool, a means of telling a story. People have a tendency to confuse them as an end to themselves. A Special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing. You tell 'em George. Wait you said that?!
Ire 01.14.12	i can't wait for his quigley review
Satellite 01.14.12	it is SO dense, there is SO much happening
Satellite 01.14.12	the only thing poetic here is that i was vomiting in stanzas
Acanthus 01.14.12	I don't even know what that means!
Trebor. 01.14.12	Gungas Goongans
theacademy 01.14.12	WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR FACE
theacademy 01.14.12	just like the nazi's moved into france in a little historical event you might have heard of what was it? oh yea... THE FRENCH REVOLUTION
theacademy 01.14.12	nazis*
Deviant. 01.14.12	Oh god, did I just reference The Phantom Menace as a positive example?
kris. 01.14.12	this whole thread i love it so much
Ire 01.14.12	your review was stupid pants
Trebor. 01.14.12	This rules hard http://redlettermedia.com/newly-found-episode-iii-review-behind-the-scenes-footage/
theacademy 01.14.12	if i was dying and the make a wish foundation grant me one wish, mine would be to watch these videos in the same room as george lucas.
Trebor. 01.14.12	lol
iambandersnatch 01.14.12	a camera on his face the entire time he watches these would be pretty amazing , agree
Parallels 01.14.12	haha i remember when he started those... so classic. The avatar one is great too.
theacademy 01.14.12	the indy 4 one (which is pretty recent) is the best since the star wars ones
theacademy 01.14.12	he was WAY rougher on indy 4 than he was on avatar
theacademy 01.14.12	he likes shia labeouf. he says so in the review. shia is fucking cool in most movies he's done.
theacademy 01.14.12	no need to wait disturbia holes transformers guide to recognizing your saints shaker heights
theacademy 01.14.12	he was annoying in i, robot, wall street 2, and constantine. eagle eye and indy 4 were bad movies that nobody could have been good in.
omnipanzer 01.14.12	"God are these good" Yah they're great but you really have to watch the whole things to get all the humor and then realize he's absolutely fucking right. The second is my favorite when he rips apart their relationship and the piss poor manor in which Lucas attempted to inject passion.
theacademy 01.14.12	what the fuck are you talking about downey had nothing to do in that movie except look uncomfortable
theacademy 01.14.12	@omni I'M A SENATOR
omnipanzer 01.14.12	"wall street 2" Fuck me running, you watched that?
kris. 01.14.12	wait shia was in i robot why don't i remember this
omnipanzer 01.14.12	Acad, The whining montage is the shit.
Acanthus 01.14.12	Yeah omni the second one IS really good, and once he mentioned the relationship aspect it really was like "wow, I've never really watched these before have I?"
theacademy 01.14.12	he's got a small part in the beginning... he's the quicktalking douchemonger who throws a basketball at will smith YO, SPOON
omnipanzer 01.14.12	chicks DON"T dig whiny bitches!
WeepingBanana 01.14.12	don't worry guys i'm here Is everyone in this movie dumb AND stupid? Which brings me to my next point--is everyone in this movie dumb AND stupid?
omnipanzer 01.14.12	Alright night guys. I just finish Deathly Hallows pt.II and wanted to check in. ;^)
theacademy 01.14.12	i havent watched that yet part I was so fucking bad the potter franchise really went to shit after the 5th movie
kris. 01.14.12	"the potter franchise really went to shit after the 5th movie" take it back you bitch
theacademy 01.14.12	that was sort of unfair order of the phoenix deathly hallows part 1 are fucking terrible. chamber of secrets is just ok. the rest of the films are pretty sweet.
iambandersnatch 01.14.12	The earlier Harry Potter movies were for the most part worse, and they got gradually better (other than the 4th movie which was the worst.. or whichever one had the wizarding tournament) The last movie was the best. Not really a fan but my gf and girls I've dated in the past are HP freaks so I've been subjected to that shyte a ton.
Crymsonblaze 01.14.12	Red Letter Media's humor is beyond godawful. The Plinkett character has one of the most stupid fucking annoying voices ever. Out of character, he (and the other guy) is pretty funny in the Half in the Bag stuff. The criticism; the stuff that's not annoying stupid sketches.
Crymsonblaze 01.14.12	The prequels are awful. I'll admit I do like Indy 4 but I haven't seen that review.
Crymsonblaze 01.14.12	Yep. I did see the film.
Crymsonblaze 01.14.12	And the monkeys were all like "nononononononono"
omnipanzer 01.14.12	It was 2hrs and 10min of wrap-up... I've seen worse.
MO 01.14.12	yea these are so good
Ire 01.14.12	shia lebumf
TheSpirit 01.14.12	holy shit they just came out with a new darth maul book m/
Acanthus 01.14.12	Just finished the third review, great stuff.
Deviant. 01.15.12	Yeah, I've still got part 3 and the epilogue for the 3rd review to go
Yazz_Flute 01.15.12	I mean, I met him a couple times. We made out once.
