This particular review filled me a newfound lust for fried chicken.
By the way, was it http://www.chunkyschicken.com? I missed the URL, it was here an gone in a flash.

Jay’s haircut looks cool in this review. I read an interesting comment in another review that the “Ancient Ones” gods were just a metaphor for the audience, “us”, basically. I think that meta-horror perspective kinda helps explain the movie better.
Strelnikov
It’s a brillant fake.

A disclaimer at the end of a frigging Three Stooges “homage” movie. You have to be kidding me.
The dilemma of watching new HITB when I haven’t seen the film…..
Polkov
I’m not sure if you guys were aware of this, but Mystery Science Theater 3000 riffed on this movie. Maybe you did know this. I typed out this comment at the 4 minute mark because not typing it was killing me.
Polkov
Only, instead of it being called “Zaat”, it was “Blood Waters of Dr. Z”. Probably some copyright issue.
Strelnikov
I think “Blood Waters of Dr. Z” was the re-release title, which may have been edited or something. All I know is that “Zaat” did not do well in 1971, so they ran it again in mid-1970s. Like a lot of Italian cheapies, this flick has a bunch of alternate titles, including “Hydra”, “Attack of the Swamp Creatures”, “Legend of the Zaat Monster”, and the minimalist “Dr. Z.”
Allegedly they shot “Zaat” in one month during 1970. It mostly ran in the South, probably on the infamous Southern drive-in circuit.

you guys may want to hurry up with the inevitable avengers review before everyone’s already seen it, also bring in Rich Evans since he actually seems to know his shit when it comes to comic books, just make him a zombie or something if you’re worried about continuity
Laridada
yeahh!! Avengers in a Bag!

You two are adorable and it makes me super happy, especially since it reminds me of talking about movies with my own friends (who are all unfortunately on the opposite side of the globe at the moment). Thanks for making all these awesome reviews – it always makes my day when there’s a new one.
BatSTUD
Gotta say, love the review…but Black Widow indeed does have superhuman powers if only in the sense that she has had a variation of the Super Soldier formula that turned Steve Rogers into Captain America.

You guys should start doing beer reviews.
John_in_Toronto
I’ll buy that for a dollar? Plinkett likes RoboCop???
Best episode in a long time, love the new locations. Also your succeessful trip to the festival in Denmark proves what we Europeans already know – we have a better sense of humour
Please review “Robot Holocaust”. It’s a mid 80′s sci-fi flick set in an post-apocalyptic(?) New York. It’s was directed by a Tim Kinclaid or something, best known by his work in the pornographic industry, and financed by an Italian studio.
If you liked Troll 2 you are going to love this piece of crap!!

Hey, assholes!……We don’t want any more Plinkett reviews cos you’re not into doing therm so they aren’t funny anymore. And if you’re going to make a movie why not write a decent script and try and make something people want to watch instead of cheesy schlock??! You spend enough time ragging on other people’s movies and lack of funding isnt an excuse….”The Blair Witch Project” – 60k….”Paranormal Activity” – 15k…..”PI” – 60k …”Catfish”…30k…..”Primer” ..7k!!!!!…you guys must have 7k already. Seriously dudes, stop fucking around and get your shit together…..realize the dream!
Why would you automatically assume that they’re just fucking around and aren’t going to make something with a decent script? Cheesy schlock can be well-made too. Just look at their last movie Feeding Frenzy.

tysonatthemovies1984
You guys make good reviews, but Mr. Plinkett should have the same voice in Half in the Bag as he does in his reviews.
Romboramba
The voice actor of mr. plinkett is different than the actor that plays him -_-
tysonatthemovies1984
Yeah, that’s why I made the comment..
Dominicdelaware
Why should he have the same voice? Does it hurt your brain?
tysonatthemovies1984
No, it would just be better, the voice from the Plinkett reviews is just plain better.

prometheus would be amazing reviewed by plinkett also. that film has so many plot holes.
Dolsen1993
Most of the things that happened make sense, but the way the film was edited makes it seem wonky
http://www.facebook.com/people/Cratylus-Maximus/539821360 Cratylus Maximus
why didnt (spoiler) run (spoiler) rather than along it
where was everyone
Spaz
Spoilers?
http://www.facebook.com/people/Cratylus-Maximus/539821360 Cratylus Maximus
naw, all this is either in the trailer or sufficiently unspecific not to spoil. shaw’s surgery is in the trailer, violent mohawk is in the trailer, octopus tentacle is in the trailer.
i guess a fullbore plinkett treatment would necessarily have to spoil, since the thing JUST came out.
but i think it really is the most disappointing thing since phantom menace. maybe it rates a vivisection.
Spaz
Ehh I wouldn’t put it that low – the first half of the movie was really good, the entirety of the phantom menace was bad………..
as for the plot holes you mentioned, they make sense in context of the movie, they are just explained very poorly. In fact, I think that adding a few key scenes to help the audience grasp what the fook was going on would have been nice. Here is my interpretation
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS* She ran alongside it because this is a movie where people do stupid things to add tension
*SPOILERS* This one is sort of confusing, and required an additional scene IMO. Either they were knocked out, or they were called to Weyland’s room when he woke up. I think the point was once Weyland was awake, nobody cared what happened to Shaw. Plus, her being pregnant with that thing was all part of David’s “experiment” which was basically called off once Weyland woke up and decided to go to the temple.
*SPOILERS*. He turned into a violent dick because he fell into the goo when the glasses guy was attacked. Remember the helmet melting?
*SPOILERS*. That pose was a reference to a deleted scene in Alien. It is only there to make you think “What the f*ck” before he attacked everyone.
*SPOILERS*. She wasn’t bleeding from the wound after the surgery, even though she was held together with just staples, so I think we are meant to assume that the machine did something else? Maybe it was the type of incision? I really don’t know. Possibly a plot hole.
*SPOILERS* This is left ambiguous on purpose I think, so I don’t think it counts as a plot hole.
*SPOILERS* The octopus monster got so big because that’s what happens in the Alien universe. Remember how big the chestburster got in Alien?
That is the best I got. To me this movie felt like a three hour movie edited down to two hours, because of so many key scenes that seem to be missing.
http://www.facebook.com/people/Cratylus-Maximus/539821360 Cratylus Maximus
“She (SPOILER) because this is a movie where people do stupid things to add tension”
This is not what I watch a Ridley Scott movie for.
Spaz
Yeah I agree. That scene was stupit. I still found the film entertaining, if bizzare
Zaburino
I can’t wait for the Prometheus review, though it may deserve the Plinkett treatment.
No, it was a great film.
And they said haters of it should just not watch movies (which is true)

Nice review as always guys. For anyone that can see Prometheus in IMAX it looks amazing. Also did anyone else think the movie would have been better if they just dropped the “Alien” tie in and just made it a stand alone film? It really felt like all the weak parts of the film were them trying to shoehorn in “Alien” and somehow doing a bad job at it.
Fan
Glad the plinkett “story” didnt take more time than it did. Something off with the lighting, or filter or whatever makes the light seem bad. The light was better in the old set at least.

Actually Alfred said what restaurant he would go to when Bruce was traveling around the world before he became Batman, and he would hope that he would one day see Bruce sitting at a table across from him at that particular restaurant that how Bruce knew where to go at the end.
…….SPOILER…….
My problem with that is how did Bruce get out of the Bat, yeah, they made a point to say the autopilot was fixed but when did he have time to escape the blast radius?
And yeah I noticed that too quick transition from day to night too, also you couldn’t understand that chase scene because it rarely felt like Batman was chasing the criminals, so what the hell was he doing?
Also why would Talia sleep with Bruce after she gained his trust, there was no reason to do that. His trust in her wasn’t based on sexual nor romantic feelings.
hobo_joe
1: It has been suggested that Batman ejected from the Bat when you see the (otherwise unexplained) explosion from the point of view of the busload of kids on the bridge. The explosion could have been used to mask his ejection. You do see Batman after this moment, apparently still in the Bat, but are you absolutely sure he is still flying inside the bat? The ejection mechanism could have ejected the entire cockpit section.
2: Talia slept with Bruce … (nod to HISHE) because he’s BATMAN!
Jumpin’ Jehosaphat
I did thoroughly enjoy the movie though after the awkwardness of the first act was ironed out.

In one review they look like homeless slobs and then next they are dressed fine. Continuity errors are BULLSHIT!!
http://www.facebook.com/people/Ryan-Hartman/8222978 Ryan Hartman
I’m surprised how much credit they gave Dark Knight Rises. I thought it was the worst of the 3 Batman movies, and probably the worst of Nolan’s library of films. Not to say it was a horrible movie, it was just kind of OK. I thought it was a little better than Spiderman and not nearly as good as Avengers.
http://twitter.com/RPK_ RPK
Since my earlier response was deleted (removed because of the spoilers I assume), I’ll just repeat my dissatisfaction with the lack of suspense or mystery.
Especially when compared to how well the Joker was able to create tension through his unpredictability.
CrookedCarrot
You guys always enlighten me about movies. I’ve never disagreed with an opinion. Even when my opinion differs at first, by the end of the review, I’m like “Oh, yeah.”
Mike, insightful as always. Jay, you agree with Mike’s insightful-ness so that makes you insightful-ish. I like how you state your opinion in the form of a question. You must want to be on Jeopardy.

Disney just purchased LucasArts from, well, George Lucas. Now the fun(niest) part, Star Wars Episode 7 is on the works. So if you thought Mr.Lucas “raped your childhood” with the prequels and the revised editions go buy some lubricant, this one is going to hurt.
twistedfloyd
I… need… more… haaalllfff in the baaagggg. Over the last two weeks, you guys have gotten me through this quarter at school in the excruciating hours it takes to work on my projects, I have listened to all of these episodes, the Star Wars reviews twice and the rest of the Plinkett reviews as well that keep me from wanting to jump off a cliff while I’m slaving away on projects for 15 hours a day.
Thanks for creating these fun and insightful reviews. I came for Plinkett (and still want more Plinkett), but have stayed for Half in the Bag.

How the fuck did you guys get back into Plinket’s house for the Twilight Half in the Bag episode?!?!?!

I watched every episode twice. I think I am starting to sound like Mike when I speak.
jubalbiggs
Hey Half In The Bag; I’d like to see a review of that youtube feature length movie with like 6 million hits; Born Of Hope. It is an indy project that is surprisingly watchable. Might be cool to have the indy reviewers reviewing a successful indy movie. Interesting discussion about the economics of making the movie free too (I think it came back to them; their little company in the UK gets a lot of business because of that film).
richard dawkins darwin
love the show there should be a new episode of half in the bag every week im sick of watching repeats loved the no brand cons skit XD, oh and battleship was about team work and unity i got Goosebumps when i watched it but you guys are entitled to your own opinion but i just think you guys have had your brain washed from the shitty transformers movies but i agree about rihanna her performance was weak, battleship inspired me to join the navy not because of aliens -_- but like i said the team work and unity maybe you should watch it again and try and see my point of view, and the word shlop or whatever is getting used way too much but i guess im just a nice respectful person Peace mike and jay

First half, great, but HFR review…sitting in the front row/side of the theater is terrible experience for any movie. Regardless of frame rate, that’s a bad place to sit.
Janet
I was one of those weirdos who didn’t have an issue with the 3-D. Through most of the movie, I actually forgot I was watching it in 3-D. A few parts looked horrible (obvious 3-D), and some made me nauseous for a second, but for the most part I thought it was great.
JimDandy
In regards to the controversy of 48fps. You guys must not play many video games (probably no PC games). A gamer is used to seeing perfect flowing motion without the blur. I think a 48fps 2D would be the best way to see the movie.
waltereg0
A movie that looks like a video game looks cheap.
Marshall
The hobbit (besides 48FPS and 3D) was amazing, watching it in 24 fps is much better
Bob Sacamano
Mike: “Being invested in the story isn’t the payoff, it’s the action….” Mr. Plinkett just shat himself! Then he heard what Mike said and was very disappointed and encourages Mike to watch his Star Wars Prequel Critiques. It’s the story and the characters that make the action fun. Without a good story or good characters, the action becomes boring and lame…because we don’t care about them at that point.
guest
He’s talking about this movie specifically, dumbass. I hate seeing this comments where people try to take Mike’s own words and throw them back at him. There’s a big difference between a disposable Arnold action movie and an epic fantasy space saga that’s ABOUT the story and the characters.
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=599459594 Michael Little
No. It proves he is full of shit. Just like you and all the Internet hate brigade.
BillPaxton
In the “Fuck You, It’s January” episode, you guys mentioned liking Judge Dredd. At first I figured you were talking about “Dredd”, the more recent and very good action flick, but I wasn’t sure if you were talking about the nineties “Judge Dredd.” This isn’t an attempt to flame or any stupid shit, I actually liked things in Judge Dredd and would think it’d be cool if my favorite reviewers were the only other people in the world who liked it besides me.

Two questions: 1. Why did Jay disappear at 21:20? 2. What movie were you guys watching? None of the stuff that you guys talked about happens in Movie 43. I mean, I haven’t seen it, but I looked it up and it didn’t say anything about what you guys talked about.

Half in the Bag fan
When I was in the fourth grade, my science teacher made us watch “Return to Oz” and it was the single most traumatic thing I ever watched as a child, especially being obsessed with the Judy Garland movie. When I recall the memories I have of that movie, it makes me feel like a scared kid who just wants to hurt whoever thought that movie would be ANYTHING children would want to watch. From the torn apart Tin-Man, the lady taking her own head off, to the horrifying room of emeralds; all in all FUCK THAT MOVIE.

Mike: Michael Bay’s humor is evil.
Jay: It is stupid and evil. Now let’s go make a Plintkett video that treats serial killer as joke.
Mike: Michael Bay sucks. Lucas sucks. I’m talented. I can act. I’m intelligent.
Jay: Honest trailers and CinemaSins sucks. All they talk about are plotholes.
Mike: They sound like hipster douchebags.
Jay: Yeah, only joyless fucks would make hater videos like that.
