The Double Toasted team AKA the best film reviewers out there

It's amusing how insecure Korey gets when Martin and Goodwin simultaneously agree on something he doesn't. I actually don't feel like he talks over people too much, but he can get out of control when this happens. Recent examples are the Skull Island review and some parts of the Power Rangers one. He gets defensive and doesn't even let them elaborate, lol.

Thankfully he's self-aware enough to recognize what he's doing and is able to spin it and make it funny.

He did it all the time in the spill days too lol, Chris and Martin usually agreed on stuff so when he didn't he'd just yell so his point was loudest

Love him for it.

Edit: The thing that makes them good critics is they genuinely love movies. They never go into a film and think or want it too be bad, they always give everything a chance even if it is from a franchise they hate to surprise them and be good. They never act like it's not worth their time.

I don't think it happened as often in the Spill days because Tony would usually share Korey's opinion, so it'd be an even split. But now, it's happening more since Goodwin's opinion is unpredictable.

Shit Korey ain't nothing compared to how Cargill used to get.

I remember they reviewed the Get Smart movie and the rest of the guys thought it was average while he really like it. And after ten minutes you could feel that if they weren't on tape, he would have murdered them then and there for their roasting.

I'm just waiting for horror movie season to come around so we can get more fights over "smart horror." There's like a ongoing feud that spans across Lights Out, Don't Breathe, and Blair Witch lol

Apparently Mia Khalifa (ex porn star for those that don't know) is coming Ray's show, which will be streamed live. Korey will be "supervising" the show and Danielle wasn't invited.

Man I was just think about that the other day as well as the Breaking Bad finale spoilercast.

So much good stuff just lost that wasn't saved by posting on youtube ;-;

I miss the spoiler cast episodes back in the spill days. They did one for The Force Awakens and BvS, they didn't do one for Logan.

"Megatron fucked Jay Z"

This slayed me.

Can't wait to hear what they think of the Spider-Man trailer. I expect Korey to go all in, and I mean go in hard lol.

She's based out of Austin too. Getting her on the sports show is going to get them some nice attention. Although I haven't watched The Double Dribble in months, so I don't know how well produced it is.

Danielle tends to say kinda questionable things when it comes to sex and whatnot (her story about how she broke her arm comes to mind and her defending that). Having her on talking with an ex-porn star could be fine, but could easily go off the rails and offend their guest.

Danielle has come a long way, she's a gotten much better. Sure, things are likely to go crazy but she'll be control herself to where it doesn't go overboard, she wouldn't want to end up disappointing Korey again after the infamous drunk review.

which review was that?
Click to expand...

I think it was called "Monkey with a Gun." They interviewed the director and decided to do a drunk show for it since it sounded so ridiculous. Danielle got mega wasted and started grinding on Korey during the livestream. Then Korey called her out about showing her ass and not paying attention, she cried, and it snowballed downhill from there lol.

I'm like 99.99999% sure they never uploaded it to Youtube.

yeah, they didn't and iirc the episode wasn't even going to be archived on the site, but Korey changed his mind.

Once was enough for me lmao. At least it didn't 100% kill off the idea of drunk shows. They should get hammered at the Alamo Drafthouse, hurry back to the studio, and do a drunk review for Transformers: The Last Knight. We all know it's gonna be some bullshit at this point.

Danielle and topics regarding sex, both casual/consensual and violent, can become controversial. In fact, I goddamn cringe whenever Danielle talks about rape stories that are brought up during the show. What she says isn't malicious or heinous, it's more like she says some inappropriate things that could've been worded wayyyy better.

Wow, lotta Goodwin haters in here lol.

I do think he can be on the snarky, above-it-all attitude side of things, but I like his counterbalance to Korey and dynamic with Martin.

And no offense to Sammy, he seems like a super good guy but I am sick of him yelling little inaudible commentary off screen. No one can fucking hear you dude, and it's damn near constant.

And where the hell is Danielle? Has she been let go, or busy? Korey mentioned they had to let go of their marketing person in an offhand comment and I thought that person was Danielle? For all of her wtf moments, her and Korey had super entertaining rapport and you never knew what was going to come out of her mouth. Just curious.

I think it's his resting bitch face. lol
It's especially noticeable near the end of the new Spider-Man trailer video.

Also, sometimes it feels like he is trying too hard in certain reviews to have an alternate view. Not all the time, but sometimes.

Last I heard, she was going to be a regular on OZ's show., but on the last OZ show I listened to, OZ stated said his friends thought she was *insert derogatory term for the mentally impaired*. This left Korey feeling like she doesn't fit in with the show even after praised her for doing a good job on the previous OZ show.

He hasn't made a peep about her, and won't answer questions regarding her in the comments.

As for KG, dude's such an arrogant individual, acting like he knows it all. Sammy is a much better movie critic than KG and it astounds me they choose use KG over a person who actually went to film school.

Sammy I think prefers to not be on so many reviews, pretty sure he's gotten offers and opportunities to be a bigger part in the reviews themselves.

I like Goodwin, he's an asshole but he's an honest asshole.

I got frustrated with The High Score. I tried to give it a chance but their analysis is like talking to randoms at a GameStop.

The "Let's Play" aspect of it is fine, since Goodwin and Girts are friends and have a good rapport. But the rest is meh.

Mostly because when they actually play the games and riff on it it's funny.

But them talking about games, yeah, they're kinda ignorant as shit.

Yeah, I noticed that when I tried watching it. It surprised me considering how in-depth the movie reviews go.

When girts was going through his list I cringed at that part hard.

Given all the shit Girts has said he doesn't like regarding games I'm struggling to figure out what about video games he actually likes.

Everything I've seen points towards video games not really being for Girts. He seems like he wants to be hand fed everything.

They def need someone actually knowledge about games for Highscore to be watchable.
