What did Sup Forums think of Mr. Plinkett's review of The Force Awakens?

Mike is addicted to the BBC.

it was garbage

who isn't these days?

Sup Forums thought that Sup Forums is several people and that OP is a faggot

also that fucking fan service joke

>only criticism of the film was no blacked scene
I agree

He already dropped the ball with the Hobbit, it was not surprise.

red cuck media

I think Mike has fallen into his own "grandfather clause" thing he brought up in the Crystal Skull review. He wasn't nearly as hard as he should've been on this film.

>Finn feels terrible about the slaughtering of the villagers so much that it drives him to betray the organization he was brainwashed from birth to be loyal to
>Has ZERO problem killing his fellow stormtroopers.
>Rey is an expert pilot
>The entire film aping the original
>The passionless dogfight at the end on Starkiller
>STARKILLER AT ALL
How did The First Order construct the thing without anyone knowing about it?
>Where did the funds come from?

etfuckingcetera. It was completely surprising to hear him go as easy as he did on the film. He's gone fucking soft.

once again it was mostly about bashing lucas instead of disney

dont forgot the horrible voice acting with the annoying orange beause it had to be voiced by the black girl cause diversity

Rey is chosen one. Anakin could btfo the trade federation fleet in tpm

Starkiller is in uncharted space. Theyre also fascist and can probably print 1000 credit sheev face bills

It was as bad as TFA itself.

Awful. Most of the review was Mike getting pissy because not everyone agreed with him about the prequels and the rest are just extremely minor critisisms about the Force Awakens rather than tackling any of the real problems the movie had.

"the movie is as much good as tpm"

well technically is true

>Anakin could btfo the trade federation fleet in tpm

Are you actually using this to excuse Rey's bullshit? As if TPM wasn't already bullshit? Are you fucking mental?

>Starkiller is in uncharted space

Uncharted space that is close enough to fire a planet destroying beam from light years away? It's the same shit as the bugs sending a meteor to the other side of the galaxy in Starship Troopers.

>comparing TFA to the prequels when RLM claim to fame is ripping apart the prequels
>uncharted space but slow moving plasma beam instantly reaches capital solar system

A Mr. Plinkett review of The Force Awakens could've been good.

Instead they made a "the Star Wars Awakens" video where Plinkett cries about rings.

>nerds sperging about technical inaccuracies
>not realizing movies like this at their core are about the characters and how they develop
Ok

What the fuck was with that Ring theory shit? That was the most boring and pointless thing I've ever watched.

>Finn feels terrible about the slaughtering of the villagers so much that it drives him to betray the organization he was brainwashed from birth to be loyal to
>Has ZERO problem killing his fellow stormtroopers.

No you're right it's about the characters and their likability and yadda yadda.

>Most of the review was Mike getting pissy because not everyone agreed with him about the prequels
This?
He seems to be genuinely angry that people like movies that he doesn't.

>Ohhh he said he would not care if a extremely ugly white trash whore would have a romantic sub plot with a okish black dude!!

I hate rlm now!!

You people are such fucking cucks.
You will never understand Mike and the whole rlm crew.

Reddit sellouts. Please stop making threads about them.

They are a part of Sup Forums
You can fuck off tooo Sup Forums if you don't like it here.

The beams travel through hyperspace or some shit

>dude just turn your brain off lmao

it started off okay and gradually became awful

why did he go on for like 20 minutes at the end on some rant about how rey should have fucked finn? not only is this the first movie but why is this a complaint anyways?

Orly?

Nobody's saying you shouldn't think, but if you're going to overanalyze parts of the film that aren't essential to what the films all about, you'll come across as a retard. You could use similar criticisms for the original films as well, but it just shows you're missing the point.

>overanalyze parts of the film that aren't essential to what the films all about
PLinkett does this constantly in both his Trek and Wars reviews.

I don't know why people take the guy seriously.
I still think the TNG movies are fine to good, and I still think the prequels are on par with the OT.

i lost a bit of respect for mike after the half in the bag, after seeing so many fans blinded by their fanboyism to see mike also fall for the shit show that was TFA was sad. i expected better of him.

it should be held to same standards as all the other star wars movies. and for everyone to nitpick every single fucking detail of the prequels but ignore and love all the shit in TFA because "it's just a movie bro!"

it's gonna be funny in a few years when we get the 15th disney star wars movie and the nostalgia goggles wear off and everyone wakes up and realizes yeah disney has been exploiting us for money and we all fell for it.

To piss off all the bigots who got mad when John Boyega's face was in TFA

You should probably watch the Plinkett review.

ebin

That was 95% memeing though.

>I lost respect for someone because I disagree with them about a movie

wew lad, maybe you should try being an adult

Anyone who isn't stupid realizes that now. Doesn't change the fact that the movie was decent.

fight fire with fire.

>there are no racists on Sup Forums
what did he mean by this?

It wasn't his best work but I enjoyed it for the most part. Those who are complaining about the fact that he only complained about other people's complains should probably realize the irony in that.

>the movie was decent.
not even close

>not!Tatooine
>not!theDeathStar
>not!theEmpire
>not!therebellion
>not!oldBen
>not!Yoda
>not!theCantina
>not!TheCave

etc

He shouldn't reviewed it ten years later, so he could have the same perspective on it as he did the prequels and not be blinded by fanboyism.

Yfw rogue 1 is gonna be the same thing

Oh you're that moron from the other thread. Nice to see you again. I thought it was okay to reference things from the other films since it's all just good world building amirite? :)

What's moronic about disliking the fact that a new film is completely aping an older, superior film? With weaker characterizations at that.

It's a valid criticism unless you are so blind that you don't see the prequels as being much worse attempts at doing the very same thing.

ROTS is good because they went to lots of cool planets! ;)

>at doing the very same thing.
TPM's attempt at pottery (Anakin blowing up the Droid Control ship) is 10 times more subtle than A LITERAL TRENCH RUN.

>to

...

That's like saying one Michael Bay film is subtler than another. Maybe slightly, but not to a degree that matters. The prequels have C3PO being disassembled and carried around in pieces, a Skywalker having his hand cut off and replaced with a robot hand, LITERAL Boba Fett clones, pointless cameos by Chewbacca and several others, stupid fanfic type shit involving characters like Yoda and Palpatine doing ridiculous lightsaber stunts, the ANH ripoff (only dumber) that you mentioned, and more pointless cameos by every character possible towards the end of ROTS under the guise of "bringing things full circle" which is just an excuse to exploit the marketability of having Darth Vader show up in your movie for five seconds to do something embarrassing.

I WANT THAT JUICY RICH MEAT

>Maybe slightly
Stopped reading there.
Plinkett tards can't go one post without minimizing and hand waving the good attributes of the prequels.
It'slike arguing with a woman.

I like their videos but the RLM fandom is the worst thing ever.

Don't like to read much? I figured.

The prequels have no good attributes.

>It'slike arguing with a woman.
How would you know? You have never spoken to one.

>This astromech, he's a good friend... R2D2! Your father wanted you to have him when you were old enough. This droid may not look it, but he fought with us in the clone wars.

>The prequels have no good attributes.
ok
bye now

What is this wonder?

It is not a photo of a real woman yet it's strangely arousing...

Oh, would you look at that. I'm still in the thread.

You have no power here.

>And this one... C3PO. Your father built him when he was even younger than you! He doesn't remember but he actually tried to kill us once in the Clone Wars! He had been captured by the enemy and turned into a fearsome Battle Droid.

Halloween BOTW today lads

I loved it. Top level entertainment. It triggered fucking everybody.

The prequel reviews, much as they are impressive, were mostly about entertainment too. If you needed his reviews to tell you that the movies fucking suck, you are a grade-A retard.

>I don't remember owning a droid

He pussied out on the mary sue argument

Let's not forget that Obi-Wan's robosexual life partner died a hero's death at the start of Revenge of the Sith, when attacked by the bug droids in space.

He's simply repressing the memories, and trying not to talk about it, because it just hurts too much, even all these years later.

Too much whining about shit clickbait sites no one cares about

His points about the state of the industry was good
His response to the circle theory was petty as was his references to the copy cats
His review of the movie was underwhelming, but really what could be said
He did pretty well considering how there isn't much to say.

yeah i loved his 10 minute rant at the end about how the movie sucked because finn didn't fuck rey

>implying he didnt do this on purpose to trigger stormcucks

It took over his Crystal skull review as his worst one. It was so forced, and all that bullshit for the first 40 mins was a snoozefest

He didn't do that. He used that point to emphasize how safe and sterile the movie is in general.

Better post the source fag

>why did he go on for like 20 minutes at the end on some rant about how rey should have fucked finn?

mike figures if he complains vocally enough about the lack of interracial sex, Sup Forums will stop calling him a nazi

Worthless, made themselves look like the children they are especially after the "we're too old for this hehe" when ripping the prequels.
At this stage their favorite movie of the last ten years will be a toss up of the new oliver twist ft Ice Cube or a mashup of Mocking jay pt 1 & 2 (c)

>its okay to set my house on fire because I burnt (you)r toast yesterday

It sucked.

Half the review wasn't about The Force Awakens. Instead it was Mike sucking himself off that he's the standard bearer for internet reviews and saying everyone else is shit.

Then he ranted about the prequels, Lucas, and fan theories. Heard it all already, boring.

Finally at the end he got to the actual movie review and while he admits the movie was a copy of Star Wars 1977, his only other major complaint was that there wasn't enough romance. Nothing about all the plot convience of Rey being an instant master of everything including the Force. Nothing about how the movie shit on all the original heroes and made them incompetents and bad parents. Total shit.

Well said. It was trash.

I laughed maybe once.

One of his weakest yet, but still pretty good.

Started decent then you pretty much have to skip to 48 min or something for him to get on track again.

It was the best thing since my son

Bringing up ring theory was a mistake, spending 30 minutes on it even more of a mistake.

Who /hype/ for the new Best of The Worst today?

how do you know that?

I think it was more that he was debunking prequel apologists. Ring theory is a good example of something that seems plausible at first blush but is actually stupid if you think about it for two seconds. The length for that segment was maybe a bit much but addressing it as an example was good.

It wasn't bad. TFA is better than the prequels, so it makes sense that he's a bit softer on it, I guess.
It's a bit long-winded and he sticks to the ring theory for way too long, though; it was likely only worth spending 5-10 minutes on at most.

He had some great points though:
>Rebellion is still "The Rebellion", not the status quo
>How the Empire, which should've been in shambles, got the resources to build Deathstar Mk.III
>How it stayed secret for 30 years despite being planet-sized, etc.
>The sheer amount of of references and allusions to the original trilogy

...and you can easily throw a lot of those arguments to the wayside, but he actually had a really solid point on how robotic Rey was, romantically.
His point that the original trilogy had a prominent romance and that this has a vacuum instead was spot-on. Also
>That supercut of all the hugging they do in the movie
Oh man, my sides.

>tl;dr
Pretty legit. Some good points, some bad ones. Was worth the watching for sure. Felt a bit forced, no pun intended, since we've yet to see the next two films.

He explains why, this star wars is sexless. It is safe and committee designed, and he is mad that the committee said "We need an interracial couple for Stars Wars, but make sure it is a safe couple so no kissing, no sexual tension, no possible controversy (Except by how progressive we are)"

Bad. Spent more time complaining about the prequels than discussing in detail anything wrong with Episode VII

>everyone that hates TFA is the same person
It was a shit movie.

It felt like disney shilled him a bit. He pulled back all the punches.

I completely agree, I think he went to long on the discussion of the movie being made and the post-prequel build up and then didn't tear into the new movie hard enough at the end.

That's because the video wasn't really about TFA.

Disney shilled him to call TFA a shallow scam?

Why do you always post this webm?

>but if you're going to overanalyze parts of the film that aren't essential to what the films all about
This describes Plinkett reviews.

hype for that comfy Halloween BOTW

>Where did the funds come from?
War.
They probably attacked and took over the planet, enslaved the population and had them work on transforming the planet into Star Killer base.
Free planet, free workers, free resources (from the free planet).
Only thing you need to pay for is the military that keeps everything under control

Best of the Worst peaked with geteven. What a movie.

wasn't funny or even terribly critical
