'The Return of Mr. Plinkett' - Red Letter Media Takes On The Orginal Star Wars

Mr. Plinkett and the gang over at Red Letter Media became quite famous (or should I say infamous) for their scalding critiques of the three Star Wars prequels. Their diatribes are the blueprint for all Internet complaint videos and are legendary when it comes to geek culture. I always wondered why people love to bash new inclinations of old franchises (the Prequels, Prometheus, Wolverine Origins, etc) while revering the old material as if it were perfect. How come these guys don't pick apart the classics like they do the new films? Maybe because they don't want to admit that you can find fault in just about anything if you look hard enough. Well, Mr. Plinkett has decided to do just that, albeit in a bit of a different fashion. Instead of blasting every frame by frame VIDEO of the original Star Wars in a similar fashion that he did the prequels, Plinkett has created an audio track to accompany the original film. It is 2 hours long and from what I have read over at /Film is a bit easier on the criticism (not surprising there), but my interest is definitely piqued and I will eventually sync this up with the film to see Plinkett's thoughts. I would like them to go old school RLM and do a full on video for the first three SW films though. My guess is they won't because they will then lose credibility when they don't blast silly things like the Ewoks and the most deadly bounty hunter in the world dying via trip and fall.... but that is just my opinion.

Red Letter Media "Takes On" Prometheus (And By "Takes On", I Mean Roasts In their Very Creative Way!!!)

The gang over at Red Letter Media have made critiquing movies on the Internet an art form, and their reviews and criticisms of major properties are known far and wide. While their rants used to be INCREDIBLY detailed and long as shit, they have improved their ability to cut the critiques down in terms of total time while not sacrificing their intelligent barbs. They also have managed to improve on their level of humor as well This is definitely apparent in their new critique of Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus', a film that is causing many polarizing opinions. You gotta check their review out, it is priceless!!! The guys at Red Letter were also smart enough to release both the full length review (24 minutes) and abridged version of the review (4 minutes), both of which you can see after the jump.... I really like the things these guys say in the long version. If you have the time and want an honest critique of the movie, give this a watch.

God I Miss Me Some Patrick Swayze!!!

Red Letter Media is known for their epic critiques of the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Those were kind of funny, but the time has come for them to move on to some bigger and better things. One of these things they have jumped into is the development of supercut videos, where they take "All the..." of something in a particular movie and edit it together into a one minute clip. Today you are going to be treated to "All the punches in the face that take place in Roadhouse". Yup, I just typed that. God I miss Patrick Swayze. Who else could rock a mullet and tight ass pants like that and still kick major ass? R.I.P. you heavenly angel of a man. Click after the jump to see the video...
