• Half in the Bag: Video reviews from the creators of the really long Star Wars reviews

[img]http://www.redlettermedia.com/images/halfinthebag/logo.jpg[/img] Half in the Bag is a bit like Plinkett's Movie reviews (most notably his Star Wars prequel reviews), but with Jay and Mike instead of Plinkett (although he does make some appearences). They're a lot shorter than Plinkett's reviews but they're made as actual reviews to inform you if a movie is/isn't worth watching and they still manage to be pretty in-depth. There's also kind of a random background story in them because it's more of a web series than stricly a review, but the reviews are the main focus. Most of the movies are ones that are currently in theaters and people would be considering seeing, but they do occasionally throw in some random movies, usually low-budget so-bad-they're-good movies or some other assorted things. I think they're pretty interesting because Jay and Mike talk about the movies in a really casual, average movie viewer fashion, but at the same time they never come across as dumb when talking about the movies (although the humor is a bit purposefully dumb). Two of the episodes are on Youtube but the rest are only on the RedLetterMedia site.

After a minute or so of that shitty slapstick garbage I turned it off.
Ha you're a retard, because A. it isn't slapstick and B. the reviews are good. Fuck you and your entire family.
[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;30460179]After a minute or so of that shitty slapstick garbage I turned it off.[/QUOTE] Their reviews are good, you damn Dirty Ape.
I just want to see more Plinkett reviews. Reviews are more fun to watch when they can actually show footage of the things they're talking about, instead of having to draw all the clips from trailers.
[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;30460179]After a minute or so of that shitty slapstick garbage I turned it off.[/QUOTE] The shitty slapstick is done in a deadpan style that supplements the actual review and the humor within. The only truly bad thing about this is the guy who plays Mister Plinkett, since Mike Stoklasa is the guy who voices him but they don't have a cloning machine handy. Other than that I really like it, it's better than most other internet movie reviews.
