- After learning that their secret camera of Mr. Plinkett is no longer working, Mike and Jay arrive at his house to get those sweet sweet anti-bodies. However, instead of continuing this interesting plot line, Mike and Jay decide to talk about Halloween Kills - a film that's much more realistic and fascinating. It is that spooky, scary and most evil time of the year: October through June! What do Mike and Jay think of this newest Halloween installment? Oh come on, you know...

Always consult an expert!
Mike was an expat in the UK when he was in his 30s and served in the SAS. Now he's returned to the US in his 70s to live out the remainder of his life.
relax mike is only killing to practice for the new plinkett review he needs real screams for the video
Jay's intro was concise and snarky, Mike's intro was the ramblings of a drunken dementia patient. Both are 10/10.
😂
The intro had many, many problems. I give it a 9/10.
He's right, though.
Well me personally, I loved both intros.
@@phnargg Voy Cuag!
If the most traumatic event that happened in this town was a double homicide with a knife 40 years ago, then this place must be pretty peaceful actually.
True, I had like 3 stabbings in the last month alone, in my neighborhood.
@@BTLJKS 😂😂😂
POV: you're American
my town had like a horrific love triangle ritual murder and we all kinda forgot about it in weeks lol
Man, my 5th grade teacher, her new husband, and one of her kids were stabbed to death by her ex husband. I just realized I've been directly connected to a deadlier event than Halloween.
I honestly would have loved a movie about a town coming together and beating up a horror villain. No clever scheme to overcome the bad guy, just the knowledge that eventually 100 dudes with baseball bats would kill a xenomorph.
Hell fucking yes brother!
I think the xenomorph would win
@@marshallp24x yeah Idk how baseball bats are going to hold up to the xenomorph's blood.
Lol
You really think 100 people with baseball bats would kill a xenomorph?
LMFAO!
Dude 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No surprise the scene where an elderly couple gets brutally tortured and murdered is Mikes favourite scene.
He was probably laughing the whole time too
If their osteoporosis caused them to be unable to escape he would've recommended the movie.
I CLAPPED!
You made me laugh as hard as the intros did
All he ever wants from those old person safety videos is one old person going through a windshield or have some other brutal accident. Halloween Kills delivers.
Mike Stoklasa daring to challenge Jay's bizzarely photographic memory for horror-movie details makes him a braver elderly man than I'll ever be.
So confidently too. "You fuck-up!"
Is it Mike's tums festival?
@@pappy2690 yes. Also, the whole Andrew Jackson thing would have been an actual clever bit of subtext, so of course this movie would never go that direction.
Jay is Michael Myers confirmed.
I don't think you need a photographic memory in this case. The movies only been out a week. Mike is just senile.
The "Old Hickory" / "Old Huckleberry" argument feels like Karma for mike stirring the pot during the fabled Tums Festival
Why didn't he google "Name of baseball bat in Halloween"? He should have known the writers of this movie don't know shit about political history.

The old dude got paid to do a new soundtrack with his kid and friends, and the soundtrack is probably the best part of the movie. I'm down with that.
Idk these guys were kinda being some hoes to John Carpenter while he’s still here .

And I’m conflicted because it means more awesome horror scores by him, even if the actual films are leaving a bad taste in the mouth

I broke out into uncontrolled laughter at the end when Laurie says something along the lines of "we'll catch him tonight, and if we don't, then tomorrow, or next halloween!"

@@madijeis4320 You sound transphobic.
The knife that Mike pulls out in the beginning has been embedded in that wall for 10 years! (It's in like episode 5 or 6 that it got stuck there.) Now THAT'S how you do a setup and payoff.
too bad it had to be used for halloween kills
@Cactus Malone what an amazing comment LMAO! Sorry it got missed!

Mike's Old Huckleberry denial is strikingly similar to the notorious Rich Evans Tums denial. Both times Jay was right. He deserves justice.

You’re forgetting the “Hi, I’m dead” debate that Jay was also right about on BOTW wheel episode 🤣
#justiceforjay
Jay is always right about movie trivia and everyone challenges him. Old Huckleberry indeed.
No. It said The Natural.
Exactly. I always believe Jay because, if he's uncertain or doesn't know something, he says so.
See you at the Tums Festival
“I’m so right it’s painful”
The whole exchange reminded me of a TNG episode, about the BaseBorg.
Michael Myers should be 65 now and getting his senior discounts. The fact that he's still an unstoppable killing machine is impressive, he should have a side business making workout videos.
Those mental hospitals have great nutrition plans and workout routines
@@demilung oh no, now I have so many more questions. Does he go back to an institution in the off-season? Weren't these all closed since the 70s? Besides eating right and exercising, what does he do with all that non-Halloween killing time? Sketch out new murder plans in his notebooks? Attend the annual slasher conference with Jason and Freddie to go over the past year's performance?
Maybe Mike is right and he just catches a bus to Las Vegas.
@@johnbrown1860 Well, in this continuity he sat there doing nothing for 40 years, but from the public opinion of him I guess it's common knowledge that he's hopping timelines to get some work out and kill people.
I guess he also moonlights as Jason.

Michael: (breathing sounds)
Subtitles: More plates more dates.
"John Carpenter... rest in peace." is one of my favorite RLM jokes of all time. Very Norm-esque.
Hey Michael stop stealing my moves!
Reminds me of that tragedy
I didn't even know he was sick
The deep hate Rich Evans had for the original movie really shows in this review
Has anyone hated any movie as much as Rich Evans hates the original Halloween?
Yeah, he wouldn't even be in the episode
How embarrassing!
Rich was right. the reality is this movie was just like the rest
@@holodigm I think John Campea is also not a fan of original Halloween to say it mildly.
I love that this entire town spends the whole movie ranting at the screen about the boogeyman, and the nature of evil, and all the while Michael’s just standing in his spot like “Mmm Window :)”
Of all the contents I've read to get here, this is the one that made me nearly spit out my drink.
Lol holy shit your right
Hmmm yes this window is made of window
@@SerlingPictures I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to be portrayed as monsters, otherwise Jamie Lee Curtis' comparison to the Black Lives Matter movement would be much worse, and also hilarious
@@SerlingPictures I mean, they did go batshit crazy and thought some short fat balding Danny DeVito lookalike was the 6+ foot tall Michael Myers and were chasing him down with the intent to kill him to the point they terrified him enough into killing himself. So.
I love that Lonnie the bully hasn’t changed his hair style in the years between age ten and age fifty.
They also made Kyle Richards get bangs again because Lindsay Wallace has bangs in the original. There's a season of Housewives where Richards is complaining about the bangs constantly bc she thinks they look bad but she had to get them for the film lol. As if any viewers were gonna be taken out of the experience by a conspicuously botox frozen woman in suburban Illinois having the wrong hair.
Haha. True. Same with making Jamie Leigh Curtis wear a long hair wig to match her hairstyle from 1978. God forbid a character changes their hairstyle in 40 years.
*Lonnie the bullied
@@tomevans3246she probably mentioned she was in a new film about 50 times in that episode eh?
Ending the Halloween franchise once and for all by having everyone in town go "you know what I'm tired of this shit" and surrounding Michael Meyers and comically beating him to death with blunt objects for 40 minutes is the only salvageable idea the series has had in like 3 decades
Only for Michael Myers to return to Haddonfield, driving his Station Wagon past the rampaging mob, looking at them through the car window, head slightly tilted, beating on poor old Mr Michael Meyers from Haddonfield Accounting.
“I don’t even know where to start.”

"What happens in Vegas SLAYS in Vegas" was RIGHT there, c'mon
The only problem with setting a slasher movie in Vegas is that the city is literally covered in CCTV camera, any building in Vegas has CCTV cameras every 2 steps so security would know exactly where they were the instant they did anything. Unless your inside a hotel room your being monitored 24/7
@@lutherheggs451 He can hire Brad Pitt and George Clooney to set off an EMP in Vegas again so that isn’t an issue. Solved.
There would have to be a scene where a bunch of people are tied up in a circle, and they play Russian roulette with a knife.
@@lutherheggs451 How about a city wide power outage coincidental with Mike Myers' return ? Could be supernatural or not, doesn't matter. That place would turn into an "Escape from NY" hellhole in a heartbeat. A sort of tip of the hat towards Carpenter and a homage to his earlier works.
@@lutherheggs451 Hitchcock famously said, "They don't go to the police because it's dull". Applying that to Halloween: Michael Takes Vegas, I'd assume they'd just act like the cameras don't exist.
I like to believe that Jay is slowly compiling footage of people challenging his movie knowledge and someday he’ll release a supercut of it all.
There's something so completely gratifying about watching Jamie Curtis shill this thing as a masterpiece and then everyone realizing it's literally the worst in the whole series
Slow your roll there, Resurrection still exists and will be unbeaten as the worst Halloween movie until they find a way to physically slap me through the screen.
It's the best since Halloween 2 but it's not close to a masterpiece. it's entertaining shlock
@@DerMoerpler Say what you will but we did get Busta Rhymes electrocute Michael's nuts.
I'm not saying that it's good or bad but it has a merit. (If that's possible)
@@thatoneantoid51 Good, bad, I'd say it's borderline experimental. Sadly the rest of the movie doesn't stoop down to that level of schlock. It's just boring and insultingly stupid. It also feels like a soulless cash grab even compared to other slasher sequels. But yeah, that moment was entertaining in a "Sure that might as well happen" kind of way.
It's worst than 6 and Rob Zombie's versions. How is this possible? I wonder how Halloween Ends will turn out.
The strangest thing is that seeing Zoom meetings with the cast and crew causes me more emotional distress than anything in the actual film does.
I hate zoom meetings. In my job I usually have 2-3 almost every day...
Zoom meetings make anyone look like a poor shmuck sitting through a white privilege 2 minutes of hate session.
@@RegularCupOfJoe Liberals call them "struggle sessions".
I feel like the producers/PR need to provide their actors with actual high quality equipment for these promotional interviews, a little bit would go a long way to make it not a horrible experience to sit through
Nothing made my skin crawl more than Jamie Lee Curtis bringing BLM into it. Unless you *really* have a point bringing serious issues like that into a shitty horror movie's promotion, you're going to lose on all fronts.
I found that tiny "Dueling Intros" text half assedly flying in way funnier than I should have.
It's the small things
It breaches their very flimsy cellophane 4th wall.
The fact that Mike has to edit these, and kept cutting back to Old Huckleberry, that had to both hurt and be hilarious to edit
I love the Jamie lee Curtis interview where she insists that this movie is super deep while not making ANY sense
I love how Mike comes up with this whole alternative plot and inadvertently describes Halloween 2 lol
Halloween 2 was one of the few good sequels. Despite it being flawed, I still find that movie pretty scary. I just found this movie stupid and felt like it was trying way too hard to be something it's not. At least the other Halloween sequels knew they were cheesey.

I have no idea why you think a reference to Andrew Jackson would be “cerebral” or “interesting” here. It would be as much of a non sequitur as “Old Huckleberry” is, and it would be even more muddled, because it would suggest symbolism where none exists.

@@markonw6661 'Huckleberry' is a southern slang term meaning "the right person for the job". In this instance, the implication is that the bat is the right answer to people getting out of line.
I distinctly remember it being called old huckleberry in the movie and thinking to myself "that's a stupid name for a bat, why would they show us that and specifically focus in on it?". Mike is wrong, but i understand his frustration. That is a stupid name and it makes no sense
@@jmorales09 See my above post. I explain the term.

Omg. The tag line:

Is seriously the *best* tag line for a slasher film set in Vegas, ever. I hope that gets used someday.
The mob mistaking a short, waddling fat man (who looked like Danny Devito as the Penguin) for Michael Myers was the funniest sh*t ever. I can't believe the filmmakers actually wanted us to take this movie seriously.
More importantly why doesn't the mob know what Michael Myers looks like? He spent like 40 years in prison. Haven't they seen his mugshot?

@@harrymason4300 they literally show it on screen during the news report in the bar
Also the ridiculous gore when he splatters on the ground felt like something straight out of a cheesy B movie and killed any sense of seriousness in the scene
" I can't believe the filmmakers actually wanted us to take this movie seriously." From someone that can't spell "SHIT".
When the old man said "Now he's turning us into monsters", all I could think of was Rem Lezar saying "Hate is contagious, and you're catching it".
What if Rem Lazar is Michael Myers and did 9/11?
Only through the elimination of violence can we achieve world peace.
I KNOW WHAT THAT IS
Now Rem Lezar and Mike Stoklasa are united in at least one piece of media: the Vinesauce Resident Evil 2 mod.
Rem Lezar is gonna battle Michael Myers in the Halloween finale
I just got finished watching the film and came back to rewatch this review. They really undersold just how bad this film is. It should be on a Best of the Worst. Some of my favourite highlights were a cop shooting another cop in the neck then proceeding to miss multiple shots at Michael from about 5 feet away and Michael kicking a door towards a woman causing her to rapidly spin around and accidently shoot herself in the head.
“Hey, this movie about mass murder, kangaroo courts, and horde mentality is just like BLM!”

Also, Halloween II was so bad that it had to be erased from history...for this steaming pile?
Liberals wrote that; Its an under-the=radar, narrative inoculation for the unsuspecting.
Halloween II had it's problems and I think they were right to erase it from the continuity. It makes the story feel more realistic without it.

Not sure what you could possibly mean. Last I checked Jay lost a Trivia Challenge TWICE and lost money for very important charities. *Clearly* we know where the knowledge is at.
Jay remembers every single detail from this movie and every Halloween movie prior like a Rain Man..and yet Mike is ready to die for his belief about what the fucking bat said.
The audacity of him
😂😂😂
I really enjoy when someone who is heavily involved in a project says that thing is a masterpiece.
Not like they would have any reason to lie
This would probably never happen, but it’d be interesting to see a Halloween movie where Michael’s barely ever seen in it. It’d have everything else. Bodies are found. Rabble rousers are screaming he’s still out there as mobs get raised. The first responders practically drown with the amount of calls and reports they get about bodies found or people in trouble. But he’s rarely ever spotted, which really plays up the fear and suspense that made the first Halloween movie so tense.
I guess I just unintentionally described every serial killer/police procedural out there, but still. I think that’d be a fun different take on it. Instead of turning Michael into a self-parody comic book supervillain.
The original movie didn't show much of him (at least as an adult) right away at all. For his early appearances he is shown from far away, or in profile in a vehicle, or behind flapping sheets, or behind a fogged car window You don't see him close up or clearly until almost the very end. That makes him much scarier, a true Boogeyman.
In the new movie he fills the frame and is in sharp focus when exiting the house at the beginning, and is witnessed by multiple people while going on a huge murderous rampage. There is no mystery to that, no suspense.
They should have shown a wide shot of the burning house and firefighters, and what you aren't sure might be Michael's figure skulking away from the house. Maybe they catch a blurry image on a surveillance camera, but don't notice it until later. Don't let the town know that he has survived right away. Let some time pass before people realize that the homicidal maniac didn't really die and is after them, and then they start finding bodies. This movie had no buildup whatsoever.
Now that's a great idea! I'd like to see that too. Much more than this shit
I think it be great if bodies show up and the town panics and goes full mob justice and chaos breaks out in the town the way you mentioned.
And then it was never Myers.
But just a random killing.
Because people get stabbed and die all the time.
But all those people in the bar are so obsessed with something that happened four decades ago that they just assume it Myers coming back and the panic drives the town crazy when it was never even him.
It was just like a drug deal or a mugging gone wrong and someone got stabbed or something.
Just like playing on the idea of how what you build up in your head is way worse then the reality.
Thoughts on Ends?
@@ZodsSnappedNeck Honestly, I kinda loved it!
It wasn’t perfect, some of the criticisms are warranted. But I came in with low expectations and was Very pleasantly surprised at how unlike any other Halloween movie it was. I know a lot of people seemed to hate it, but I truly think this is going to be a Season of the Witch kind of movie where people will look back on it later and decide it was actually pretty good and didn’t deserve the early backlash it got.
“*Forty years ago” is the “Took 12 years to make” of the Halloween series.
"It needed 4 decades to stop"
"40 years ago" as a drinking game for this film will most likely kill you!!
It's about Fourty Years Ago, and that's what makes it so special.
I'm not sure which franchise has been repeatedly r@ped worse: Terminator or Halloween.
🤣
The idea of focusing on the trauma people go thru at the hands of Michael is great. It doesn’t hit the same when they try to apply it to literally the whole town.
It'd be like the residents of Beverly Hills getting together to talk about how the Manson Murders affected them 50+ years ago.
That was literally the most compelling thing about Halloween 2018, that Laurie remarks to the (eventually crazy) doctor that 'he's the new Loomis', when in actuality *she* is. She has an understanding of Michael and a preparedness that equals Loomis' in the original and that for years Michael has been singularly focused on Halloween night. They both sound crazy because of their dealing with Michael, but they know what he's capable of and are eventually vindicated.
With this? The traumatised mob are just a bunch of idiots who manage to pursue a mentally ill man to his death. It's like the bunch in Halloween 4 who immediately take up guns and manage to kill an innocent guy before getting picked off one by one.
@@samzilla567 that's a great analogy
I feel like I would move from a town that has collective hysteria.
Haddonfield must have the lowest violent-crime rate in human history. There's never been a single murder or shooting in (Or near) that town in the decades since the events of the first Halloween.
The elderly nurse wasn't even in Haddonfield, it was somewhere else. Michael drove *back* to Haddonfield. Why does she care?
Eagerly anticipating my notification of "Half in the Bag: Halloween Ends".
Town convinces a mentally ill man to commit suicide: “This is all your fault, Michael Myers”
Michael Myers: “My fault?! How’s that my fault?!”
*tasks mask off to speak better* "No seriously! What did I have to do with that??"
"Christ! I was frozen today"
Was this a reference to the Black Christmas movie they watched? Where the guy accused his lady of causing the car to break down because she got homemade oil from an Arab dude.
@@sir0nion I was thinking Twisted. The Aladdin parody musical where Jafar is the good guy
This is what you birthed in Bane voice
Everyone in the hospital: *LOOK ITS MICHAEL MYERS*
*Cuts to shot of the penguin from Batman returns*
Mike's favorite scene was the death of the elderly couple. Good to know he will never change.
I feel like the "town stuck mentally in Halloween 1978" thing could have worked, but this movie was dumb enough to kill that potential by making Haddonfield cartoonishly obsessed with killing Michael, which is what I'm afraid Scream 5 will do with Woodsboro and Ghostface (because heaven forbid we make that plot work organically!)
Also, yeah, that last thing is why I'm not thrilled about Ghostbusters: Afterlife.
The reboot sucked, but you don't need to turn the next entry into a gritty, dour hymn to Ghostbusters to prevent its legacy from being tainted or whatever.
It would be way more clever if the town were like, a tourist trap, where every year at Halloween a bunch of people show up to do a tour of all of Michael's kill spots and pose with masks and fake knives, and the townspeople are burned out and bitter about it because it exploits their trauma over and over, and the real Michael coming back is a tipping point where they all just snap
@@seangentry2943 Exactly, man.
God, this whole movie dripped with wasted potential.
@@seangentry2943 that would have been hilarious tourists vs towns folks! lol
Can't believe Mike "Old Hickory" Stoklasa pitched two entire films during his attempt to not have to talk about this one.

Why have it be a sequel at all? The scary part of the original film was "he's still out there! He could be in your town next!" So just have him show up in a completely different environment, different town, different characters, and same old creepy Mike stabbings. Show us different ticks of this killing machine as he does what he does, like the head tilt.
Now I want "Halloween J6", where Michael is a threat to _Democracy_
They seem to have forgotten what the Halloween movies are supposed to be about: Tyra Banks hosting a reality show with Busta Rhymes.
Ah yes dangertanment
@@nire4250 yes rolls off the tongue
I started laughing uncontrollably after the 4th separate character claimed that “evil dies tonight”
It’s like it became a real life but also in-movie hashtag.
@@gzz8551 As well as a real life meme
@@cactusmalone Meyers?
@@dr.loomis4221 talk show host Seth Meyers is a blight on this community.
Did the same thing except when the slow mo and cheesy music starts before the escaped inmate ends himself
The fact that I haven’t read a comment on just how amazing your Freddy Kruger impression was. BANG ON
This has me wondering about how bad an Egon ghost scene could be. "Oh, one more thing: don't cross the streams."
I respect Mike for having the gall to challenge Jay's knowledge of film, when Mike can't even remember when the next alimony payment is due.
Especially since Jay has pixel perfect memory of every frame of every movie he has ever seen (closing credits included).
I love Mike's confidence in always being wrong.
@The Moody Juice yo mama
I have a feeling that Mike & Jay's comments about Ghostbusters: Afterlife are going to find their way onto another of those 'RLM predicts the future' videos, but I hope not.
when will the RLM gang learn to not argue with Jay when it comes to things like "Tums festival" and "Old Huckleberry."
If Jay says something like "I'm pretty sure it was X," there's like a 95% chance it was X.
My fav part was how ready and willing the fire dept was to throw down with Michael.
Not just fight him but chainsaw the dude.
And then lose in a 6-on-1 fight against a 70 year old. Honestly, I thought it was more funny than anything.
And some people say that the new Halloween movies are good, Fucking Kek
@@DragonTamer31K I mean compared to the original sequels and the Rob Zombie remakes, I'd rather have these
Hey what if we used the big ass hose that fires a stream of water between 150-300 psi.. you know.. just to keep his ass on the ground until we can get away since he just walked out of a burning building with one of our guys haligans and speared another?
Curtis looks like she's so proud of herself when she says its a "masterpiece".
Up her own ass.
@@vincenthalfprice9930 I'm sure she has a few cases of it stashed in her garage.
White Woman Instagram energy
A huge paycheck will do that for you, or maybe she legit thinks it's bad
she's a good enough actress she can pretend she liked it... I hope
You know what would have been nice? If Laurie's character still felt protective over the now much older children she babysat all of those years ago, like she still feels that their well being is her responsibility. Heck, maybe if their mental health deteriorated over the years due to the trauma, she always made sure to be a shoulder to lean on for them. Perhaps they would actually form a strong relationship over time, bonding with each other after what Michael had done to them, and they continue to stay in touch, maybe they're more like her family than her actual family. I thought little Lindsay and little Tommy seemed to like each other enough, so maybe they become a couple later on, I don't know. And with how Laurie was being overprotective with her family, she could have been the same with Lindsay and Tommy, and they could have had a confrontation where they insist they aren't children that need to be looked after anymore, letting them mature, and then you have them protecting her by the end of it. You know, like an arc? But no, instead, let's have them barely look one another in the eye, and say at most 2 lines to each other and that's it. Much better. Thank you. 👏🤕
Fam, Jay going “tonight, tonight” with a flash to smashing pumpkins…. Dead ass had to pause because I laughed so hard
Old Huckleberry is the new Tums Festival and I love it. “You fuck up!”
"I'm right!"
"This is the worst of the Halloween sequels."
It's okay, Jay. I like to pretend Resurrection doesn't exist too.
@@planbrent at least Busta Rhymes brought some life to that one, the rest was so dull and boring.
@@planbrent cant say I agree as the original, halloween 2 and 2018 already beats it out hell I think even h20 has more of a leg up on kills solely based on the final encounter in that movie. Also mike acts like jason in some parts in kills.
Honestly it was better then any of the prior sequels (Aside from 2018), while it certainly had a ton of problems at least it didn't have the familial link between Laurie and Michael or Busta Rhymes vs Michael. I also count it as better then 4,5 & 6 because I can't take those films seriously after the ending of Halloween 2.
At least that was hilariously bad. This tries to act above the Halloween movies where it's just a big F*** you to the Halloween series and tries to overthink itself. It's like they were trying to make it their Aliens but ended up being a Alien³. And the fact it was professionally made is worse IMO. To see the potential wated by talented people.
I'd argue it's better than 5, 6, Resurrection, and both Rob Zombie movies.
Halloween Kills makes Halloween Resurrection look like Citizen Kane
Mike's Intro was legendary, clear win this round, not even close.
I haven’t been this excited since Jay’s GAY WEDDING!
I think I’m excited for Ghostbusters Afterlife to come out, just for RLM’s reaction alone.
I remember the first trailer looked kinda neat, now in the new ones it’s kinda showing its true colors. Like, “We’re gonna finish what my Grandfather started.” You mean, what he started when he opened up a small business and became an exterminator??
Gonna finish what he started. IT ENDS TONIGHT.
@@MrSkeltal268 Gozer has infected this family with grief and fear for FORTY YEARS! Evil dies tonight!!!
GOZER DIES TONIGHT.
@@uosdwiSrdewoH that's still stupid and doesn't flow at all with Ghostbusters. Love to see people defend Hollywood slop tho
@@uosdwiSrdewoH They made a movie centered on the *one* Ghostbuster who isn't there to actually play his part.
Also, the one actor who wasn't alive to say "Oh my God this is stupid stop."
Is nobody going to address how *awful* the voice of Dr. Loomis was? The live action recreation looked great, but the voice sounded nothing like Donald Pleasence.
Deed myekal keel ageen!?!?
@@steveaustin819 lol
If y’all don’t upload a Dune review soon I’m gonna lose it
They will. Mike is probably just busy writing out the 75 episodes of TNG it reminded him of.
Checkhov's drone: lenghtly set up a device only to absolutely dismiss it right away :P
I wonder what Rich Evans thought about it, given his deep hatred of the original.
Because it has zesty popcorn in it.
A few people hated 2018 and love this one bizarrely
He thought it was “a masterpiece”
What I was gonna say
Genuinely cracked me up.
Just watched Halloween 2018 and this back to back. I was surprised how much I liked the first one but this was a steaming pile.
The Director: *"The Bully at the end of Edward Scissorshands who gets a mob together? Let's do that."*
Jamie Lee Curtis comparing this to Black Lives Matter is insane. I can't imagine thinking that was an appropriate thing to say. I'm embarrassed just having heard it.
She’s completely detached but wants to come across as sympathetic and “real”.
She sounds to me like she's being paid ridiculous money to promote a movie that they know is a piece of sh*t.
Both movements consist of screaming simpletons, so i'm ok with it.
She actually compared it to the "Jan 6th Insurrection" so I guess that makes Michael Meyers the US Government? Seems about right. Haha
How emBARRASSING
The shot of dudes face when Jaimie says blm movement was hilarious
i literally died.
The movie is a perfect Metaphor for blm ngl
@@trevorclinton5692 what about like trump supporter mob justice
I just saw that before reading this. You’re absolutely right.
@Orkhiss Ah yes, because vandalizing, rioting, looting, breaking into the building, and assaulting Capitol Police officers is just walking around and doing nothing. You're either willfully ignorant or a massive idiot.
I’m one of those people who prefers to watch your reviews of terrible movies rather than watch them myself. The comedy is pure gold 🙏🏼
God bless you, Mike and Jay, you pointed out EXACTLY what was wrong with this movie. Please NEVER stop making this show, and NEVER stop making videos in general.
"Old Huckleberry"
"Tums Festival"
Jay is 2 for 2.
"Waiting for tonight" "Tonight tonight" that's when Jay killed me.
Sometimes, pop culture references ARE jokes :D
Just got back from watching Ghostbusters Afterlife. Spoiler: Jay was right
I can’t wait until the amount of Covid variants reach the “omega variant” cause being able to roleplay as Mr. Plinkett will bring me real joy
