20:58 Is Jay talking about Bryan Singer? Like, calling him a pedo when referring to X-Men Future Past or something?
These ones were a bit more obvious but any time they bleep themselves I really wanna know what they said. Especiallly when Jay reacts the way he does to whatever awful thing Mike has just said.
I’m assuming the Quicksilver joke had something to do with Freddy Mercury.
The one thing I still wanna know they bleeped out was an episode of BOTW with Jim and Colin where Mike said something completely deadpan, got bleeped out and Colin almost did a literal spit take at it.

the face mike makes when jay first describes him what's the puppetmaster about is too real: reminds me a lot of the reactions i get from people when describing the latest sex pervert movie i saw (and that jay reccomended)
at least these catch us videos addressed the two questions I had: did they like John Wick and did they like Bone Tomahawk?
I went to the city today, saw a Dunkin' Donuts and immediately thought of Bob Rosenberg glazing donuts. Fuck you, Rich.
I still think we need shirt with 'push the whopper button'.
I was buying bagels the other day and the “we’ve got bagels!” popped into my head. I swear, that Don Beveridge video is packed with so many dumb, funny moments.
Kevin Spacey?

Yer 9 hours late.
Well shit.
jays Comment on the 80s and synthwave is perfect
The weirdest thing about the Don Beveridge video is, as one of the guys pointed out, his style of speaking is a complete and utter mismatch with the audience.
As someone who got into that whole scene around 2012, on the one hand it's cool to finally see neon color washes, After Effects VHS filters, and synth soundtracks hit the mainstream, but on the other hand so much of it is poorly executed or obviously slapped together just to ride the trend that it ends up annoying me. I hate to be a hipster but I do dislike the more broad popular use of it! (also people need to stop conflating vaporwave and synthwave dammit) He's totally right that "Stranger Things" was the tipping point, it broke through to the mainstream way further than Drive or Hotline Miami or whatever. Plus because ST is explicitly in the 80s rather than just inspired by it that opens the whole decade to nostalgia-mining.
I think a perfect example of the right "proportions" of 80's inspiration/nostalgia/flair is Drive, it's not obnoxious about it and it's hardly noticeable, all the while being it's own thing in it's own right. And I think a good example of an actual 80's movie that captures the feel of all this 80's nostalgia shit is the single scene in Terminator, in the TechNoir nightclub. But if the whole movie was like TechNoir it would get old fast just like this 80's nostalgia has.
Everyone assumes because I like the 80s aesthetic I'm gonna love Kung Fury. It's just... not very good.
Kung Fury sucks, not because of the 80s nostalgia, but because it gets so much of it wrong, and the fact that it looks like shit too.
Kung-Fury is impressive from a visual standpoint considering it was entirely funded through Kickstarter, but everything else about it is total shit. Also it rips off like half of its jokes from Danger 5.
Watched Bone Tomahawk and Brawl In Cell Block 99 after seeing the second part of the 2018 catch-up; those are some fine movies, Bone Tomahawk especially.
Honestly, Kung Fury was just a fun film, much like Iron Sky was. I feel it has more going on than just 80's wankery.
Comparing it to actual real movies is sort of unfair. It was just a dumb fun short film which ended up being surprisingly well-produced, at least better than I expected.
The trailer was better than the final product, mainly because it has exactly one joke. A single joke hits a lot harder when you stretch it out over 2 minutes compared to 30.
So, can anyone be kind enough to post the webm of RLM folks laughing at the edited version of the Resident Evil scene?

We're at a singularity where Mike is now talking about his own fanfiction. And it's still entertaining.
Is this like a press showing? Why is Colin there?
