They don't ignore the flaws.

The critics and the normies gobbled up tpm. It was angry internet nerds and "contrarians" that hated it.
The hype died down, the hate stayed.

They didn't love it, but they didn't exactly give it the prequel treatment.

Why is it so unbearable to some of you faggots that people enjoy a movie more than you?

Avatar's critical reception and RLM's view of it compared to TFA is literal proof of the fact that the media just sells reviews.

The reviews were horribly mixed in 1999, asswipe.

Again this is a review, it is supposed to have some sort of objectivity.

No wonder they liked it. It took me a day to realize how fucking awful it was, I came out of the theater going "alright that wasnt so bad". Then I actually gave some thought to the movie and started coming up with a million reasons why its not good.

You guys can make fun of me for posting this, go for it.

This is such a letdown. I enjoy Half In The Bag, I like how casual it is and in general I like listening to people talk about movies.

RLM has either been bought out or has completely lost their edge. Every single criticism they applied to the prequels can easily be applied to TFA. But they aren't even half heartedly having a crack.

Not even going to finish episode 100. I'm thinking this means no more Plinkett, might as well be considered a closed character.

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

it's because he isn't normally in Half In The Bag as a critic. Mike and Jay "represent" the show more so they had to like it.

I like how jay sarcastically brushes aside the criticism of TFA like it's just angry nerds when their entire shtick was that they made a 9 hour nerdy rant about the prequels.

it won't even get into the top 10 movies of all time if you account for inflation

it might not even beat Jurassic World as it is underperforming overseas compared to that film.

the illusion that Star Wars is some kind of one-of-a-kind cultural juggernaut is just part of how they try to sell the film at this point.
>>
The way jay is stressing the "likeable characters" really makes it seem he was given keynotes about how to praise the movie.
>>
>>63870062

No, that's not objective reviewing. They're not judging the merit of the film as a film in the overall scheme of things. They're pointing out flaws but not weighing them against the good in a real manner.

It's like saying a bitch who gives good head is pretty because she gives you good head when the quality of her looks has nothing to do with whether her tongue licks you in the right places to make you bust.

The problem isn't really that they liked it. They can like whatever they want. The problem is that they list WORD FOR WORD the criticism that was voiced on /tv/ and by certain professional critics while glossing over it and shrugging it off. It's like they're aware of all of the film's problems but are unable to pass a negative judgement on it.

How is that like the prequels? In the prequels, the shitty story is a backdrop for shitty characters with confusing motivations and no emotional depth.

A better example would be the original trilogy, as they point out in this episode.

>>63870245

Then why does anyone on this board care about their opinions so much? Do people just get off on youtubers repeating what they already feel or believe?

There's 2.5 pages of rotten reviews, 2.5 pages of fresh reviews, with much of the fresh being apologist-esque. That's the 50% confirmed rotten it has today and the 15 years of reviews since have kept track with that pattern. You're only imagining a massive backlash after an initial praise, opinions were mixed-to-negative from the word go.

like Kylo hating Han for no reason and Rey learning the Force by doing nothing and Finn wanting to join the Resistance because it's the right thing to do.

This. Their entire plinkett reviews was blowing up those tiny snippets of criticism and making a huge deal out of it.
Now they shrug it off as "well it's a fun movie FUN YOU GUYS FUUUN" the prequels were also "fun"

THAT'S WHY THEY WERE SO LAZY ON HALF IN THE BAG

THEY PLANNED IT ALL ALONG THAT THE 100th EPISODE WILL BE THE STAR WARS ONE
>>
At first I thought they were being too forgiving, but it seemed they were pretty accurate in their analysis. I'm not a big Star Wars fan so that's probably why I didn't like it as much as them.

The bigger problem is that Mike has some kind of personal vendetta against Episode I which actually wasn't that bad, so this movie being a bit better gets blown out of proportion

>I LOVED IT
I bet you do, asshole

Are you seriously asking that? It's all right there in the movie. You can disslike the movie all you want, but you can't just ignore the very clear character motivations that the movie provides.
