I now watch these reviews before even bothering to watch the movies heh.
Hack-Frauds couldn't post this before my lunch break!?

Mike's opinion on the film pretty much matches my own. Left me a bit tired.
I don't need him to agree with social justice arguments, I just want him to at least understand them if he's going to complain about them.

Yeah the lazy dismissiveness about it all in this video is the main problem.
Just wondering why it bothers you?
I might not agree with Mikes views at all but it doesn't bother me in the slightest. They're usually always said in a humorous way too.

I think I now know what it feels like to be triggered.
I tend to like Jay's viewpoints more than Mike's, and I do get the sense that he's fairly conservative, but I can't really get offended by anything he has said. I guess everyone is open to criticism. Perhaps a college paper could be written about the problematic hegemonic patriarchal racist discourse of Half in the Bag.... it would probably get an A.

The only part about the white washing in Strange that they didn't mention/know was the whole if they cast an actual Tibet man in the film they couldn't air it in China. I think the general premise of you're fucked regardless because someone will get mad is completely valid.

Mike's an old-ass man but I wish he would stop being so dismissive about anything even remotely progressive
Yeah. 😞

Mike kinda seems to be a little set in his ways in general; like how he didn't really know that dinosaurs having feathers was pretty much the consensus in that community. Like, I don't think Mike's a shithead or anything, he can just be kind of ignorant. I almost wonder if it isn't him feeling attacked.

Rich mentioned he is 38 or 39 on the stream last night, I think. Came up in the context of work history / amount of jobs. Jack has been... around, so to speak. With a degree in clowning. Wonder if he has a minor in pain. Or terror, maybe? As taught by professor Pennywise?
But anyway Mike would be around that age too, probably the same (I think he's a year older, mentioned somewhere too). He might even be the big four, the great halfway point, the beginning of the end: 40. Huh, no wonder their humor has gotten darker.
Gotten darker? There's a suicide joke 15 seconds into the Phantom Menace review.

Sitting through Doctor Strange, all I could think of was they wrote that role for Benedict Cabbagepatch for a 15 year younger version of Hugh Laurie.

What a bunch of whining in here.
He's not. Quite the contrary actually.

Do you guys seriously need your entertainers to agree with you? I've disagreed with them plenty of times and still enjoy their actual content and comedy.
I think Rich is older than just 40 actually.
Yeah I thought he was super left, I recall in a stream he said that and the he supported pretty left-leaning ideas.
Why would you spread the rumor of Rich being Alt-Right for no reason like...
Edit: Wait a minute....
Ooooh, it all makes sense.
Nah, they can have whatever opinions they want. They just make themselves look bad when they keep inserting political arguments that they clearly have a limited understanding of.
I'm still watching and still enjoy their content, I'm also just lowering my personal opinion of them.
Let's not get crazy. Nobody here enjoys their content.
It's true, I hate-watch mostly
There's so many crazy people on both sides of this election to be so quick with the finger pointing and name calling, is it any wonder people took your post seriously? I could tell your post was in jest but.. it wasn't funny. Glad you got a lul out of it at least.
Can't wait til this fucking election is over with.

I heard Rich has a Trump hugging pillow.
Nah. 39. He mentioned it last night.
He is, and does.

LOL.
You guys say the hack frauds have conformed to being alt-right Trump sympathizers but what if it's truly the alt-right and Trump that have conformed to being RLM sympathizers
Just like that time armchair critics ripped off Mr Plinkett's Star Wars reviews that changed everything. It's like poetry. It rhymes.
Where's that check.

That's all well and g ood, but I can still criticize them for certain ideas. It's not like I'm planning an RLM boycott; I bought Space Cop even while I was kind of put off by the recent turn they've kind of taken. I also sent them an email once criticizing them politely and fairly over the "Tranny Tracker" joke, giving explanations on why it was particularly offensive, etc. I never got a response, but outside of Plinkett they never used the word tranny again, so I can at least pretend I influenced them.
Did Jack go to the same institution as Eloise Cole?
