didn't stuckmann get all dramatic when he thought rlm was making fun of him before? i wonder how he feels about that joke.
I don't think he was being particularly dramatic. He's always been an RLM fanboy, and he had no idea what RLM thought about him, if they thought anything. Then they randomly included him in one of their jokes, and his first response was that he understood the joke and that it was no big deal, he thought it was funny... but then it got under his skin and started to eat away at him, because he didn't know if RLM actually liked him or hated him. While he was feeling down, he disconnected his reference link to RLM.
Fans noticed the small change and blew it out of proportion, declaring a new internet feud, requiring explanations from Stuckmann and RLM (via Rich in a Pre Rec stream). And it's all good. Stuckmann's first reaction was the correct one. It was just a joke, and RLM likes Stuckmann.
This time there shouldn't be any drama, because the joke is clear. Mike is needling Stuckmann, giving him a friendly ribbing based on their previous misunderstanding, because Mike saw that Stuckmann was among those first 16 reviewers.
Hopefully Stuckmann chimes in on what kind of cake they were serving. Jay definitely wants to know.
Fake edit: The director explained the Stuckmann thing on Reddit. The studio was doing an exclusive showing of the movie. Stuckmann was in the area and heard about the showing. Stuckmann tweeted the director and asked "Can you get me in?" The director responded "Sure, why not?" and let him into the exclusive showing.
