Redlettermedia is full of moments like that. Where there's an *AWESOME* joke that gets buried in Rich Evan's ghoulish laughter or Jay's weird S&M thing or Jack being adorably traumatized by very, very bad ideas.
Every time I rewatch this episode, it amazes me that no one caught the best part of GETEVEN. In the honeymoon scene after the protagonist and Cindy get married, as the protagonist and his playmate are making out, some random guy reaches in from beside the bed to steal their champagne. They're drinking champagne in bed, and John DeHart reaches over "off-screen" to put his glass "on the nightstand." The cameraman was apparently confused, and pans slightly to follow the glass, so you can plainly see when a stagehand reaches in from off-screen and takes the glass from DeHart because there was no nightstand there.
I know this comment is old but Mark just did a video on this movie on his channel Fanboy Flicks. He shows that scene and it’s hilarious. There is a nightstand but it’s a little too far away. He could have just moved it closer to the bed or make sure they got a shot without showing the guy in it. I would definitely recommend his video though. He really does a great job.
I'm so thankful that there were grown ups out there that used to take the time to produce the kind of movies that every 8 year old boy dreamed of making themselves.
You mean that only they dreamed of themselves. I don't think anyone other than the creators wanted this film to be made. I don't even think the majority of people in this film wanted this film to be made.
The difference is that we grew out of that phase knowing these movies would be pathetic and bad as fuck. These delusional filmmakers never did grow up.
@@jeltje50 I think narcissism is the key word. When someone has no capacity for self-doubt or reflection because they think everything about them is awesome, they will end up making a jackass of themselves one way or another. And they'll still think they're awesome.
The woman in Geteven, honestly, gives an inspiring performance. She's surrounded by creepy idiots and given nonsense to say, but she is giving it her absolute all, and she's not even drunk like all the "real" actors.
A tip when writing a movie synopsis: don't say a character "appears to" die and then say that the movie has a "surprise ending." I think a lot of people can guess what the surprise is just from reading that summary.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I had watched Fanboy Flicks great video on the movie, so I knew she wasn’t really dead. It’s a terrible giveaway to say “appears to be” because the only real reason to phrase it like that is if she’s not really dead. So it’s incredibly stupid to put that on the box.
CasaiAgicap he sounds a little like Bryan Ferry in a few parts of that creepy love song. Makes me wonder if he actually took voice lessons he might pretty good. I’m sure he already believes he’s the best singer though.

Imagine having the kind of hubris where you get halfway through your vanity home movie about you shooting bad guys and saving pretty younger women who let you feel them up... and then think 'Hell, I think it's time to film myself reading the only part of Hamlet I've heard of while I pay a girl to listen to it and pretend to be impressed at how smart I am'..... and then you go home and return to your day job as an ACTUAL LAWYER. Imagine what kind of world this is that just allows you to do that!
Jim looks very drunk during the discussion. Sitting there with his dead stare before suddenly comming with a witty comment before going back to his drunken stupor. Good job Jim!
You could probably take any serious, sad, prolonged monologue in any media ever made and just having Jim blurt out "Future Force!" at the end would make the whole thing hilarious imo.
@@HowDareYouSpeakToMe Have to agree, I was in tears the first time I heard it. It's even funnier waching it again cause you can see Jim trying not to crack up as he says the joke cause he knows its such a banger.
I rewatch this episode from time to time just to see this moment lol. These canadian hack frauds are so funny, every episode with Jim and Colin is gold imo.
Silent Canadian guy has really grown on me. I thought he was akward at first but when he does speak it's always fucking hilarious. He is somehow even more deadpan than Mike.
I was wondering how long it was going to take until Mike made a David Carradine masturbation/asphyxiation joke. It took about 12 seconds. I was not disappointed.
I think you just have to get it out of the way when Carradine comes up in a conversation. It's just hangs in the air you know. Like he hanged in that closet. Damn, see? It happened again.
You have one voicemail. BEEP "... oh no, it's a voicemail." "Is it his voice?" ... *thud* *thud* *thud* ... "Just press the top right button to turn it off." ... "No I do not know how to ..." "Rich hang it up." ... "This is the worst fucking phone." "It is so awful, how do you own this?" ... "Hit that phone-thing." ... "Exactly?" ... "How do you hang up the phone. It is on his ..." ... "You know it is got a malfunction. It is supposed to uh ... turn off when you put it against your face, but it is still off even when you take it away, and that is ... bad." ... "Turn off you fucker." BEEP End of message.
I don't know if they mentioned it in the video for sure, but apparently John De Hart, the writer/ director/ lead actor of 'geteven' said in an interview that he doesn't really like action movies and couldn't even name one he liked, but instead he wrote the movie because he 'just got tired of not being hired as a lead actor'
During that interview, John De Hart also says that he "hates writing" ... in the exact same sentence that he says his hero is William Shakespeare and that he's trying to follow in his footsteps. So...yeah.
He also stated in an interview that the reason people hate his movie is because “he kicks ass and gets the girl”. Not a direct quote, but close enough.
It's similar enough that I genuinely wonder whether one of the writers at The Office saw Geteven and was inspired. Given the high percentage of comedy writers who are into obscure so-bad-it's-good movies, it seems very plausible.
@@holycow818181 And the Cherokee Jack reference too. And somebody said "watch out for snakes" in an episode. I think someone was definitely a bad movie fanatic in the production crew.
Rich: *"You could probably make a 45 minute super cut of Miles long getting kicked in the face."* * *Looks at remaining time of video* * Me: Oh shit...
This IMDB review for GetEven totally doesn't sound faked at all: "I have been and am a mainstream Film Editor since 1985. I've worked on many successful projects, for example: "Magnum P I", "D C Cop" and "Simon And Simon". The list goes on. I've viewed this Film ROAD TO REVENGE" more than once. Each time has been better. JOHN DE HART, WINGS HAUSER and WILLIAM SMITH give magnificent performances. The message is 'Good Over Evil' and it is delivered in Surrealistic Style. This is a 'Stand Up' Film that is character driven, with substance and good continuity. The Movie is worth seeing over and over. You'll com away with something new each time!!! I am only one of many that really appreciate the work. If you check the Ratings Votes, you'll find that every Lady that Voted, gave the Movie a "10" for excellent. I happen to be a man, but I strenuously concur with all of those Lady Voters..."
And here's the other one: "John De Hart, Wings Hauser, William Smith And Pamela Bryant are brilliant in their portrayals. John De Hart has become my favorite Actor and this is truly my favorite movie of all time! The action is superb. The relationships are real as is the romance. The funny parts are really funny, the one-liners are great and there are many memorable, meaningful and right-on messages about the corruption inherent in bureaucracy... The movie is thrilling! To paraphrase an eminent movie critic: Everything that is good about action movies has been mirrored here and amped to the next level. Remember how you always wished that Jean-Claude Van Damme would have sung multiple songs in his movies? This movie is the fulfillment of that wish! One more thing you should know: Every female that has viewed this film and voted on this cite has rated the film a '10'. Don't miss it."
Why would John De Hart pose as someone else, and to be somewhat specific, yet also seemingly random? Did he really like the 2 series and that TV movie? So...weird!!! But, for giggles, let's have fun investigating who he's trying to pose as. Is that a tad creepy? Anyway, of all the editors that have Simon & Simon and Magnum PI in common, I found 5. IMDB doesn't have much crew listed for D C Cop, which is VERY convenient. Since he's posing as a man in the review copied in the OP, that rules out Francine Fleishman. He's just soooo MANLY he can't pretend to be a woman in the IMDB comments. Awww! Down to 4!!! I'd also rule out Ron Rutberg, Albert J.J. Zuniga, and Ed Guidotti because why wouldn't he flaunt all his totally awesome, mega cool work (Quantum Leap, Knight Rider; A-Team, Night Gallery; Murder She Wrote), or just become too specific with a more recognizable name? Down to 1! That leaves... Stephen R. Pfahler. But he also worked on Superminds: Misfits of Science and Riptide. These seem less known, or at least I haven't heard of them. Though, I suppose a very proud editor would still flaunt these. Hmmm... Shoulda just claimed he was a woman. Francine Fleishman is really looking like the better option since she has the fewest editing credits of the 5. Also, who wouldn't want a last name that roughly translates into "Flesh man"? Missed opportunity! Poorly played! No gold stars for John De Hart.
+Sanna Pettersson He says, "If You want A Copy Call Me At 323 644 5500..." Aaaaand that's John De Hart's phone number... HIS BUSINESS PHONE NUMBER: www.johndehartesq.com/entertainment_law.html
That lamp goes off and on whole time 1 h 01 m 40 its on then 1 h 01 m 48 its off again to about 1 h 05 m 00 mark when its on again Maybe RLM could use those nice VCR repairmen Mike and Jay to fix their electricity .
That man clearly wrote the whole movie thinking "oh yeah, THIS is the vehicule that will showcase all my awesome talents as a comedian, dramatic actor, action man, singer and song writer!" Time would show him how horribly, horribly wrong he was on all counts.
Every. Single. Time. I see some fucker in a movie recite that monologue, it breaks my heart because no one reads it like it’s supposed to be. It’s Hamlet having an existential breakdown in a graveyard, and it’s depressing as hell, but every two-bit actor with an inflated sense of importance goes all campy with it and drives it into the dirt

Nexus Verbal I mean, that flying robot hand thing is basically exactly what's in the game. He has to be at least aware. He's a lovable scamp that Kojima.
Archk Den Yes. But knowing that Kojima's a film buff, I'm guessing Snake's arm is more a throwback to Future Force. Maybe asking him about it over twitter may yield results.
I could actually see the joke version of Parole Violators being a good movie. Like a man is acquitted of murder, but someone is convinced he did it and will do it again, and keeps following and taping him, trying to catch him doing something wrong, becoming obsessive... becoming the villain.
It was my birthday 2 days ago and I've been stuck at home doing nothing because my whole family is sick except me. So I haven't gotten gifts, a cake, a party, or anything. At least you guys ended my weekend with a little bit of joy. Thanks.
That freeze frame of David Carradine smiling during the helicopter chase is one of the freakiest things I've ever seen. I seriously thought it was one of those unsettling deepfake smiles until I watched it again and saw it was for real. 😬
From the research I’ve done I believe a u21 is a uzi type gun...but not a real one. The only “u21” gun I found was a U21 air soft gun that looks IDENTICAL to the cover of the film. I believe John de hart is an idiot and thought that was the real name of the real gun.
Same here. Have a studio session tomorrow voicing stuff I haven't touched for ages, nervous and depressed as shit, but this thing will keep me afloat for now. Praise the hack frauds!
Don't know if I commented this before, but I just have to say it again. Rich's reenactment mocking the whisky screen is almost perfectly spot on, and it's amazing he remembered the movement with such accuracy.
"I'll talk about Future Force since Collin BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP" I'm still dying to know what was said. Speaking of drunk David Carradine, one of my film teachers had stories about being in the Camera department on Kung Fu: The Legend Continues in the 90's and mentioned how he was "assigned" the duty of keeping an eye on Carradine to make sure he didn't drink too much and wander off into underground gambling dens. I used to love that show as a kid and still miss Carradine.
Been years since I thought about it but does anyone else find it hilarious that a lawyer made the evil bad guy in his movie a judge? It's like making the villain "darrel who used to make fun of me in school."
We'd just say "three fifty-seven magnum" in the US. Mostly the decimal isn't mentioned at all, since most of us here know it's there anyway, even if they don't know why. lol
As someone born in 1990, I've recognized quite a VHS covers from their selections or on the shelves as ones I used to see in the video rental store as a kid.
I can alwways tell when mike edditss the episode cause you see the edit always trashing Rich Evans. Mike is like a bully who is trying to make Rich cry.
Geteven is an excellent reminder that money is not a substitute for life-experience and character. I'd probably be just as big of a goofball, if not more-so, had I been born into wealth.
This is better than Christmas as an eight year old. After watching these guys for years and thinking I'd seen them ALL, this beauty pops up like a shining star 🙌🌟
I love how in future force it's just one button on the remote control. Click once and it starts up, click again and it flies, click again and it chases down your enemy, all in one simple button. 😆
