+Evan Jones personally, I find it annoying they threw together a monster movie, slapped a recognizable name on it, and then it's expected that we are just supposed to swallow it b/c... b/c. Instead of doing something along the lines of, well, throwing the money at something new. You can't just say it's okay because it doesn't match up to the original. If it's not as good as the original, why make it? Why shoot for being mediocre, instead of attempting to be interesting? Which, funny enough, is what the original did. You don't have to make 2001, but Christ, you can try...

Guys, just FYI. I actually talked to Peter Mayhew at a scifi con in 2010. And I asked him THE question, knowing that he, of all people, would know its true answer. Peter said George would NEVER subtitle any Wookie language, not even in special features on any Star Wars DVD. Subtitle Greedo, Jabba, Sebulba, Yes. Subtitle any Wookie, never.

When I watch RLM, it's like I have friends. It's great. Sometimes I even go as far as to converse with the men on the screen, interjecting their witty observations with "I know, Rich!", as well as "Wasn't that scene in the movie just then really bad?". I also like to have a pint on my desk so I can drink alongisde my RLM friends when they have a drink as well. Sometimes when I want to get really fucked up, I get out the proofed absinthe and just replay the part where they drink over and over again, taking a swig each time. One time I did this for 147 minutes.

I do that all the time. I have rewatched each episode and stream way too much and have tangential conversations about their viewpoints to myself all the time. That's the winning thing about these guys; they have well constructed opinions on things, but they're not snobby about it and just shlubby midwesterners doing their thing. They're basically what Kevin Smith used to be before he discovered weed.

I've never understood the Jack(or Josh) haters. It's a 4-person discussion, so it's not like they're stealing a spot from one of the three regulars, and both of them bring something unique to the table. We wouldn't have Juicy Shaq Meat without Josh, Fuckbutt Point without Tim or even Rich's Double Down breakdown without he-who-must-not-be-named, and all those things made me cry laughing. I think just having Jay, Mike and Rich in every episode with no outsiders would have gotten pretty stale by now...
