RLM is a good watch. Their year end reviews are usually good to introduce or remind me other something I missed. The best video still has to be when they watch Transformers 1, 2, and 3 simultaneously.

I'm a big fan of their stuff.

My favorites of theirs are the Best of the Worst ( actually the Plinkett reviews are tops, but are only released every few years ) for a while, when a new Best of the worst came out I would make an effort to find the films, which are listed in the BotW episode description. The films are often on Youtube. And watch 20-30 mins to get a preview.

The Plinkett prequel reviews will always be their best stuff. Minus the random cutaways to Plinkett's RL or whatever, that stuff is always forced.

I used to feel this way as well, but I'm starting to think their Plinkett Ghostbusters 2016 review may be narrowly edging it out

I've had a lot of their backlog playing in the background over the past few weeks and the corny VCR repair/plinkett stuff is growing on me. I think it was when Plinkett was falling down repeatedly in the pile of VCR tapes that finally made it click for me. It's so deadpan and absurd that you can't help but like it. Still not sold on the prequel style dead hooker stuff though.

Wow so much hate on Mike. He and Jay, are the brains of the operation. Mike is at his best when we his drunk and riding Rich like a 5 cent mule during Best of the Worst.

If I had to rank them from fav to least fav:

1) Mike
2) Rich
3) Jay
4) Jack
5) Balding Beard Dude... can never remember his name.

I'd even put the two Canadian dudes ahead of BBD but behind Jack.

Mike's off color comments are the garnish on top of every episode, as well as the inevitable Star Trek reference

Yeah that's a reasonable top 5.

Whin was that women who used to show up on best on the worst when they were watching the movies, but not on the discussion panel?

I think that was Mike's wife. Who knows if that is true or if they are still together.

Jessi.

The only public thing anyone has said about her was from Jack on a pre-rec stream. And all he said was that Jessi chooses not to appear on camera anymore. It is speculated that she was getting horribly stalked and harassed.

Edit: Found a link

There was a subreddit dedicated to her feet and the comments on the RLM site pre RLM reddit were very stalkerish towards her. Needless to say she was out shortly after that came to light, people are real weird man

I think I'm completely bored with TV and movies at this point in my life. I probably spend more time listening to movie commentary from these guys than I do actually watching movies these days. I'd rather listen these guys spend an hour talking about a shitty movie than spend 2 hours watching any movie myself. The star was holiday special is one of my favorites.




or Mike and Rich reading Darth Vader suit lore. This feels like the prequel to the Nerd Crew because there are a lot of youtube channels dedicated to stuff like this.

The Star Trek references are always on point. And I chuckle thinking it might beJay having to do the editing occasionally and having to find the relevant scene.

He probably knows more than the average trekkie after all those years around Mike and Rich on top of having to edit many of the episodes.
