how is it that Mike can riff a better movie plot than the bozos who are getting paid to write the Avengefinity Gauntlets: War of the Purple Giants part 6
Quentin Tarantino grew up watching blacksploitation movies with his mother and her boyfriends, has an unlimited budget, and has already shown a wonderful attention to detail and set design for period pieces in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Take Mike's premise and give it to Quentin for the wildest and most unexpected sequel of all time
I was 9 when rocketeer came out and I loved it was one of the films I checked out constantly from the library *we were poor* Jennifer Connelly was also one of my first crushes.
I like mikes pitch for the rocketeer 2, but knowing the current state of politics in hollywood and the lack of talented writers and ideas if that movie was actually going to be made I fear it would be ghostbusters 2016 levels of garbage.
So it turns out the Rocketeer “sequel” is a shittily animated Disney Junior (yes junior, like for toddlers) show. Just so you really don’t get your hopes up for Mike’s good pitch.
It’s cathartic to me because my grandparents got me that same doll when I was a kid, and it MORTIFIED ME. I told my parents it would talk to me at night and that he scared me… Mind you, this was right around the time Child’s Play came out, so you can understand why I was concerned.
Imagine your best friend spending all of his time and effort trying to get you to destroy everything you've loved from your childhood for millions of views. The Rich Evans Experience.
35:33 You know the really funny thing is that people who didn't watch STD would think this was an exaggeration, but the only that is missing is the annoyingly bad direction of the real episodes.
41:42 is the defining Jack moment. Also Macs friend is a bland fucker. They didn't even introduce him until the after credit scene of the episode. (it's RLM so I'm sure it's a prank on us but still)
So, I went from the first part, and the next video in line was "Best of RLM part 2". But it was someone else's part 2, and not your's. So, I got lost on his playlist for a while, wondering why you forgot that you had already used some parts in your first video, before realizing I had been horribly derailed by the algorithm. Fuck, RU-vid.
I guess I am the moid who's screaming at the absolute retardedness of the proposed sequel to the rocketeer. I love the comics and the original movie. It could maybe work with a passing the torch motif, but I would just rather have new characters and not the repurposing of already beloved ones to meet an imaginary requirement that we used to call tokenism but apparently now its all fine.
At 38 minutes Culkin shows up, and destroys the last 22 minutes. It took them long enough to realize that it was cool at first having a formerly famous child actor around, and then it wasn't. They finally just had to tell him to go home, alone. Go leech off some other channels talent and popularity, you're weighing us down. It took them FOREVER to cut that guy loose.
