All of these 80s-nostalgia shows forget two major aspects of the 80s: 1950s nostalgia and the constant threat of nuclear annihilation.
I can see that, there was definitely a resurgence of interest in the Vietnam War in the mid to late 80s, especially with films like Platoon and Full Metal Jacket, TV shows like Tour of Duty and China Beach, and even the Marvel Comics series The 'Nam.
I was 6 years old in 1979, so it's possible that any 1950s nostalgia that I remembered from the 80s was just carryover from the 70s.
@@scockery 70s were infatuated with the 30s. Fascination for fascism really took off then. You won't see that in That 70s Show though.
@@AnnusMirabilus Mainstream 80s was mostly 50s nostalgia up till 87 maybe. There was always a streak of underground obsession with the 60s though, be that pill-poppin '66 for punkers, paisley in LA, Manson for New York... That's America, England had its mod revivalists etc, so mostly clean cut early 60s.
In Mainstream the 60s came to full bloom in the late 80s I'd say, Wonder Years came out '88. That was flowery late 60s tropes.
With Grunge it all switched to the 70s. So much so that "the kids of today should defend themselves against the 70s" - was that '94?
Yeah, Gern Wind is pretty much spot on. The early 80's were much different than the late 80's
+Gern Wind I remember endless documentaries about WWII in the 70's.
"I was surprisingly looking forward to this."
Jay, nobody is surprised that you were looking forward for the Puppet Master Remake.
René Espinoza Exactly. Just like how nobody is surprised Mike wanted to keep that Gremlin's 2 hand (that Jay kept sniffing in the previous video) away from Jay.
That's the joke congrats
Other Empire Pictures/Full Moon movies worthy of remakes or reboots: Seedpeople, Bad Channels, and Trancers.
The idea that RLM is influencing filmmaking going forth is both inevitable and terrifying.
The AI scientists are overlooking this
"I love them but I fear them" - Rian Johnson
Did you see the Solo Review? They straight up called predictable story beats that they were pitching as a joke. This is the future I want to live in.
You're not wrong!
Deathstalker, magnum
I'm from Milwaukee. Our bar fights end in a shootout between the cops and 1980s cocaine dealers.
Are there any satanists with hidden sharp objects in their coca-cola hats, too???
@@schizophrenicgaming365 That's not true though, is it?
Dats a ceremonial dagger dere!!
Militus Woosh
There's people hiding behind a door with sword in hand.
They need an academy award category for movie that got the funniest Half in the Bag review.
The Rogue One HitB HANDS DOWN.
Jack and Jill!
Movie 43
Grown ups 2
Maze runner the death cure is the best hitb by far
Jay is done with the 80’s but the 80’s aren’t done with him.
Everyone start mailing him old cans of Aqua Net and Hypercolor t-shirts
Wonder Woman: 1984, “Hold my ouzo!”
Mike and jay should actually host that award show with those stupid categories. The winners get the golden sad Rich Evans statuette. Sponsored by Sony.
The special Neil Breen Award for the best black tank top scene
Ernests Lacis ...aka The Fuck You, It's Hollyweird awards.
Razzies, bruh. It could happen!
Also, instead of music, it should play Rich Evan's laughter.
@@ErnestsLacis Neil Breen award is a lifetime supply of canned tuna.
Mike was embarrassed to admit he watched please stand by for Star trek
Imagine that,
A Trekkie, actually embarrassed about watching ST related crap!?
- The dimensional world-lines must've become tangled, or something! O.O
@@zetetick395 calling that movie star trek related is like calling the happy times murder comedy related *slide whistle*
*He should be.*
Saw this and got so excited i almost fell through my folding chable!
Michael Biscay who put a fart bag under your chair this morning
How could you fall through your folding chable without moving?
I think that's enough to nessitate buying a new folding chable to watch your moopies
So Director's Cut is just the Mr.Plinkett movie we've all been waiting for?
I'm just as entertained by the fact that everyone in Hollywood has seen the Plinkett reviews.
Says a lot about how obsessed Hollywood is with itself that they keep up with a TH-cam channel that mercilessly criticizes them at every opportunity.
@@CrudForge didn't the number of Hollywood people who follow them on Twitter clue you in? Or how Simon Pegg, JJ Abrams and Lindenof tweeted the phantom menace review?
@@MetaMetro3 Just a question im throwing out here: Are RLM on Hollywoods black list or something?
I don't quite understand the situation; what did a Plinkett review have to do with some random movie with Penn?
When Penn Jilette was saying about "some Star Wars thing", I thought it was that redo of a New Hope, where people did 15 second segments in their yards and they were strung together into the full film... Until the basement comment. That brought it home.
what was it referring to? im still in the dark
@@dukeofearl5428 The Plinkett prequel reviews?
@@luiginastro8831 Yes.
I want RLM to host their own Oscars where there are categories such as BeSt sPeAkInG kLiNgOn iN a AlLey
Fan Of Films Fuck this comment.

Bone Tomahawk made me install indestructible tungsten carbide plating over my taint. I will die from not pooping, but at least I feel safe now.
Just saw it. Ouch. My only complaint really is that they seemed to spend most of the budget on that effect. The film didn't need a big budget, but some of the action editing and the one decapitation felt a bit silly.
Bone Tomahawk is a gorefest disguised as a western and also complete garbage, unless you're one of those guys who love explicit gore and doesn't care about plot or good cinematography.
Gorefest? Approximately 20% of the movie is gory and that's being generous.
@@leikeylosh You can have your opinion, and I'm a year in the future from this comment, however. Bone Tomahawk (for people that know the directors work i. e. Brawl in Cell Block 99) people should ALREADY know going in this will be a trippy movie in SOME way. It's not a 'gorefest' 2/3s of the film is basically a search and rescue western film where you get to know our party of characters more.They have scares here and there along the way, like the Mexicans, our protagonist being severely injured, but the film is a subversion up until we get to the 3rd act. People who know the director are expecting something insane as a pay off, but a fresh clueless mind, which I was at the time, I feel got the best out of it. I didn't expect cave-dwelling mutated indians with bone augments in their body. That was fucking cool AND I really enjoyed the rest of the film, the 'build' to the end gore. Great cast, great shots, amazing dialogue. It's no Tarantino western, but it's a good film that is what we need to spice up the normal genres. Western/Horror? Sign me up.

"I sure do love cots." -Mike Stoklasa, 2K18
It’s where he and Jay snuggled that night.
@@ninakore CONFIRMED FOR GAY!!!
I have no idea why but that line cracked me up
Why did you not just write out the 0 instead of the K?
I understood that reference!
"how could that possibly be profitable for Frito-Lay" is probably the funniest line of the year
"Can we be done with the 80's nostalgia thing?"
Kate Bush looked down upon Jay and whispered, "No!"
Mike: "It looked like a nightmare."
Jay: "Well that's why I wanted to see it!"
RLM's horror movie reviews in two lines.
Upgrade is one of the few movies that I'll defend to the end and find excuses for any flaws other people find in it.
And "Sorry to Bother You" continues to be ignored by literally everyone
Except for Double Toasted. Thank God for them.
Jay said "it's like less Wes Anderson" and Mike missed saying "dont you mean Less Anderson"
0/10 total hacks
Unsubscribed
you guys are on the imdb of Silk, it says the only movie ever abandoned on Best of the Worst
Jay liking synth-wave has made my RLM fandom grow even stronger
You misspelled 'erection'.
upgrade was a good movie, but i was alone in the theater watching it....
I love it when that rare movie watching event happens.
Best sci-fi action movie I've seen in years! It was a better Ghost in the Shell movie than the Ghost in The Shell with ScarJo.
I don't understand why Jay and Mike wanted more fight scenes, it already had 5 well-choreographed ones with Logan Marshall-Green doing most of them.
No you weren't...
No, I was in the room with you, as I usually am.
My two friends and I saw Hardcore Henry in theater - we were the only three there and sat in completely different rows lmao
I want Mike to host the Oscars.
if he hosted the Oscars, I'd watch!
Plinkett hosting Oscars in his basement will be much better.
80s nostalgia clearly isn't what it used to be.
We can be nostalgic for the time when nostalgia was cool before anyone else is.
It's just like when we were wearing bell-bottoms and polyester in the 90s
Wow we are getting nostalgic for 80s nostalgia itself
Jay: "Did we ever talk about Bone Tomahawk"
Me: "Yeah, it was on that Re:View episode"
Oh wait, I'm rewatching this in 2021.
"I sure do love cots!"--Michael Stoklasa and Mr. Plinkett
It's like poetry...they rhyme.
Pascha P Mike's stealing jokes now
DysnomiaFilms Mr. Plinkett stole (and broke) Jay's heart. It's only fair Mike steals Plinkett's jokes... and pension money.
"We can keep synthwave because I like that music" JAY IS A HIPSTER ALERT
C’mon, fantastic mr fox is wes anderson at his peak
I want to see them make an anti-romanticised 80's movie called Stranger Danger.
(Put Rich on the milk carton)
And the carton will say "Who dicked this Birthday Boy???"
Isle of Dogs and Death of Stalin were the two best movies of the year so far.
Steve Buscemi deserved a ton of awards for his performance in Death of Stalin
The best thing about the 70's was that 80's nostalgia didn't exist back then.
I would absolutely watch the Puppet Master reboot if Thomas Lennon was playing LT Jim Dangle.
We need a plinkett review of directors cut now.
Too meta 4 me.
Would it just be Mike being filmed in front of a microphone reading the lines from cue cards?
Stephen Eaton it would be Plinkett reviewing it while Penn Jillette is tied up in the background
Just do a commentary track, and have Mike eating chips during the part that Penn is eating chips.
I watched half of this before I realized it wasn't Part 2 of the 2019 video.
i only realized this because of reading your comment! haha thanks
OMG THANK YOU!!!
@@magicalsimmy
haha
I'm so glad Mike commented on the whole 80s kidnapping thing. This warning was drilled into my head as a child and I remember seeing those Block Parents signs in windows, and actually seeing creepers around my school. I even knew a kid who got abducted. Most people my age seem to have forgotten about all that. Thanks Mike.
You're probably going to keep getting 80s aesthetic in movies, because a lot of standard movie plots get ruined by instant communication via cell phone.
@Bruce Wayne Every slasher flick where people are trapped in a building by the killer and can't call police. (Like Strangers 2, to pick the obviously relevant example.)
It's not like it's hard to create a standard plot in modern times. Literally just have a line "oh there's no cell phone service out here hope nothing bad happens"
If you don’t mention it then it’s not a problem. It’s even more contrived to come up with an excuse like “no service.” Maybe they don’t own a cell phone. Who cares? They’re silly slasher movies.
"Maybe they don't own a cellphone" I can't even imagine the chance of 5 Americans picked at random *all* not having cellphones. Maybe one in a billion.
Oh no! A racoon just stole my cellphone!
I'm warming up some pizza rolls just for this video
I'm just glad Mike and Jay talked about Bone Tomahawk, even if for only around 15 seconds. I felt like I was the only human being who actually watched that film.
Andrew Heard you're not special, kid
At the Intro i expected one of the gremlins Arms to pull the popcorn off the Screen
"We can keep synthwave, just cuz I like that music" - Jay demonstrating excellent musical taste 👍
Synthwave recommendation: Mithical Vigilante.
The 80s was the last decade without Internet so it feels different from the later decades. That’s probably why nostalgia for it has persisted longer than I thought it would. I also remember the kidnapping obsession. There was a popular TV movie in 1989 called “I Know My First Name Is Steven” that a lot of families watched since it was about the famous child kidnapping of Steven Stayner. The actual event happened in the 70s, however.
I can't believe I'm saying this but the Puppet Master remake isn't even the first movie to have a pissing guy get his head cut off and piss onto his own face.
ExplodingTittySyndrome What is the first movie to have that?
Rain Man
When is the next Star wars Internet thing coming out
.
I swear to god if Shin Godzilla isn't in the next review im going to rewatch the last jedi just to punish myself.
IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT YOU HACK FRAUDS?!?
when was the last time they watched and reviewed a non-english language film?
I hope the Japanese audience enjoyed that jab at their government, because I sure didn’t. Godzilla was super gross too.
Mike's getting into a lot of bar fights and doesn't have time for this.
@@mikekz4489 did you watch godzilla (1954)?
I had no idea that people didn't like Shin until now.
Alright Jay, you almost lost me, but as soon as you said "keep synthwave" I was like "This guy gets it."
I needed to know what could possibly shock Jay so I looked around to find the scene he was referring to in Bone Tomahawk and I have never regretted anything more. Oh my god. Every time I think about it, I gag. Thanks Jay.
Can't wait for 90s nostalgia films, where everyone will be dressed like Marilyn Manson.
We need a Running Man Re:View
They should have introduced him as "Space Cop actor Patton Oswalt."
Some of the funniest episodes of recent memory. It's just a joy to watch you two. Thanks for the recommendations.
Mr. Plinkett, a fictional character that Mike created, stole Penn Jillette’s idea of reviewing a movie and being a crazy, kidnapping, creepy old man.
Now, that is something only a magician would be able to write. Mike, have you considered going on Penn and Teller’s Fool Us?
Jay is right about the 80s. That decade gets a revival every 5 years.
Star Trek really did those kinds of competitions in the mid-late 90s I remember hearing back at university.
I just watched Upgrade, I hadn't heard of it until I saw it here. Absolutely loved it! Making a to-watch list based on these videos now...
Upgrade was one of my favorite movies of last year. Summer Of 84 also was fantastic.
Summer of 84 was the best!
I haven't seen the movie, but that's when I was born, so ... The best! :)
The '50s was nostalgatized for even longer than the '80s have been.
approximately 30 years
I bet Dr.Brule would like the killer pruppet movies
BROO... gotcha, scrared ya
When I think of the 80s I think of cocaine and Ronald Reagan more than Ghostbusters and New Wave.
I thought my afternoon was ruined, but RLM saved it.
Thank you for upcoming 36 minutes of goodness.
31:53 Jay laughs before Mike can even start his Fabio Frizzi joke. He could tell Mike was cooking something up
Thanks for mentioning Bone Tomahawk, it was a fucking amazing slow-burn western and you need to see it. When it came out on Netflix it was rated PG13 due to either an error or just someone not watching the last ten minutes of it, so the ending had extra punch when I viewed it.
Jay's wheezy laugh at 31:59 is really weirdly endearing
I liked the "diet Ex Machina" parts of Upgrade. In fact, I thought it handled the subject better. What Upgrade implies through the events of its plot, Ex Machina explicitly states. Nathan explains every single thing about the movie in one of the last scenes of Ex Machina, I can't understand why people keep saying it's the more subtle or graceful of the two.
Yeah I don't know why everyone raves about Ex Machina so much. To me it just seemed like a low tier Black Mirror episode extended to feature length
Ex Machina is really *really* well written
Low tier Black Mirror episode? So every one of them?
Ive just sat through the entirety of "The Nun" just so I can listen to you guys rip on it. Please make it your next episode thank you.
The Nun is hilarious
I can't believe they recreated the VCR Repair Shop in their studio! They must be huge fans of that repair shop to make a replica of it.
I really enjoyed Upgrade.
I was just watching an old scientist man video for fun when this came up it had just finished
16:10 I love how Jay starts waving his hands around and then Mike starts doing it too. It's not funny but I laughed really hard for some reason.
Director's Cut reminds me of that episode of Community where Abed made a whole movie out Chang's audition
Nostalgia is cyclical. In a few decades, Gro Pro footage will make a comeback. People will use apps like Instagram and Twitter ironically. And there will be a ton of movies about 1999-2000. Maybe a few comedies celebrating Y2K. And all of us will cringe because we remember living through it.
Now to watch Bone Tomahawk
Love it.
hehe
I'm still waiting for that Dr. Mario stream on PreRec...
PreRec is no more sadly
Mike fired Jack and Rich because they wouldn't let him play Dr. Mario.
Gonna be waiting. Lol
Oh shit is that the real Doomhandle. I was actually just showing my friend your SD Mocs at lunch today. Great work! What a weird coincidence.
Thanks, heh. Yeah, huge RLM fan. I listen to their stuff while building and sorting LEGO all the time.
Phantom Thread was the best comedy this year. PTA is underrated in terms of humor.
My mom still refers to the 80’s as “her decade.” 😂
I hope they get to "Sorry to Bother You"
Jay says the 80's aesthetic is played out, then says he enjoyed something that reminded him of Knight Rider. Hackfraud
For UK viewers: A cott in American speak is a fold down bed, as opposed to our cott which is for babies to sleep in.
kailomonkey Thanks, mate! Have a jolly good day in your flat. Pip pip cheerio!
Aw man, I just saw Please Stand By and I didn't find it cringey. The Klingon scene was endearing and didn't really come across poorly.
That is definitely more young Klaus Kinski than Dicaprio.
I'm disappointed you guys never reviewed Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missori
Jay talked about in on twitter. And that also came out last year so it has no place in this video.
@@TheElbowKing Its a "tonal nightmare" by design. All Mcdonagh's movie's are pitch black comedies that switch back and forth between funny, heartfelt and harrowing. It intentionally gives the audience a sort of emotional whiplash, similar to much of Tarintino's work, only grounded in a more realistic world.
@@jerseydevil5712 I don't think so, I remember looking out for it.
@@maxlarsson1152 Mike did say at the beginning that some of the movies were from late last year.
@@pauljames1807 right, forgot about that.
I haven't been to a movie theater in years. Thaks, Red Letter Media!
Had a long week, thanks for the surprise weekend content guys!
I just use these videos as a recommendation list. I'm never disappointed.
So, I just watched Bone Tomahawk... It really does have the most disgusting death EVER! I think I need therapy now...
I loved Puppet Master as a kid... but I wasn't expecting a reboot.
Fun fact: The Strangers 2 was filmed at a campground near my hometown. The pool scene was filmed the same day that i slipped and fell in. Now i can laugh at that part and say thats the place that i busted my ass bone.
they should do a commentary track and full review of Bone Tomahawk... haha
DO 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY ON RE VIEW PLEASE
Having heard their opinions on Blade Runner I would be surprised if these hacks could stay awake through 2001.
Heard the film is in select Regal theaters in September
My gf took me to see it in the cinema on a saturday morning after a night of binge drinking. There I was, enjoying a masterpiece of science fiction in super crisp HD whilst having a spectacular hangover. Best moment.
@@louiepooh1510 I have to agree with you.
Wow, I can’t believe that you guys have that much of an impact on the film industry to where it prevents a movie getting distribution because of your skits lmao!!!!!! Classic
Bone tomahawk is awesome.
Is Perturbator replacing Jay Bauman?
No, no, no - Jay's in the audience.
You guys should do a half in the bag mix and match catch up Netflix special and watch Den of Thieves(2018) and some other Netflix movies like The Platform(2019) or whatever
We are still in the 1980's because that is when everything exploded movie-wise. The Summer Blockbusters took off, VHS, Cable TV, Video Games..... and so on. Now all the people that make the product lived in the 1980's and continue to keep it in the media. But the 1990's was the decade that echoed the 1970's.... Boogie Nights, Studio 54, Rollerball, there are more I can't think of at the moment....
I finally watched Upgrade and i loved it.
Please Box YMS
Mike takes on Chris Stuckmann. Jay against Adam. Rich vs the nostalgia critic.
@@maxlarsson1152 lol the nostalgia critic is dead.
SquishyMushy Which means that he would have no reason to say no.
@@maxlarsson1152 But no one wants to see that. How about ralphtjemoviemaker or quinton reviews?
Doug Walker is now copying RLM. have you seen his recent "Freddie got fingered" review? unfunny, loud and obnoxious as usual, just like Tom Green.
You see how these two come alive when they're talking about actual movies rather than Fight Men hitting Each Other movies? I wish they got to do that more.
finally they mentioned Bone Tomahawk. Awesome Movie.
It's 4 years since that puppet master movie and I'm still waiting for a continuation
