Jay's not a hardcore Star Wars fan. He probably saw the movie, enjoyed it for what it is, and hasn't thought about it since. He likes weird arthouse shit and cult movies.

A few threads on /tv/ doesn't count as backlash. Also why should there be backlash because someone has an opinion you don... oh nevermind forgot where I was.

Mike's opinion is objectively wrong, though. And the fact that he showed he's capable of critical thinking before only makes it worse.

What if it's a "soft reboot"?

which is why it's weird that he liked TFA when it's basically a soft-reboot of ANH

Anon's point about the art house and cult shit is still wrong too because Jay also loves things like Robocop.

No, your point was that he was a HARDCORE star wars fan, he's not. A casual one at best.

Yeah I remember, he doesn't seem to feel strongly one way or the other most of the time he gets to talk during a movie.
>>
>>64596872
well, I mean he used to criticize lazy cashgrabs alot more. If somethings not made by george lucas or adam sandler he pretty much always kinda likes it.
>>
>>64596002
I like his honest take on comic book movies. His take on the new Spider-Man and Superman movies was spot on.
But his views are usually not great. At least not in the gaming world.
>>
>>64596881
Thats a fair point, I think he liked Jedi a lot growing up but grew out of the series. They grew up around the toy boom of Star Wars and probably learned of it through osmosis, but thats probably a stretch.

That said he's probably grown out the series. Hes talked about how Empire props up SW.
>>
>>64596928
>His take on the new Spider-Man and Superman movies was spot on
Spiderman yes, Superman no. He basically said he's not a fan of Superman at all so its pretty hard to care about his take on Man of steel.

Mike always sucked JJ's dick, he's just a big Star Trek nerd and not a true film critic. Their "reviews" are done as how a casual group of friends would discuss a movie; not as formal essays about why things are good or bad.
If that's what you want, the NY Times or LA Times has a film section for you.

Yes, it is also possible to hate the prequels AND enjoy force awakens.

It's also possible to enjoy the prequels AND enjoy the force awakens.

Or enjoy the prequels AND hate the force awakens.

Or even hate the prequels AND hate the force awakens.
>>
>>64597728
Personally I thought it was a bad review because Mike's critiques of TFA are drastically inconsistent with the ones given to the other prequel films.

He always genuinely praised Lucas for being a smart business man. At the end of the day when putting the movies side by side TFA works far better than the prequels

I don't believe you. That means he hates Mike too.

Can Trump make Mike Plinkett again?
>>
>>64598121
TFA answered every major criticism he ever had for the prequels. he'd be more of a hypocrite if he DIDN'T like it

all of the nitpicks in plinkett reviews were mostly just for comedic effect, those were not the real issues the films had. if that's what you focus on I'm afraid you'd missed the point entirely
>>
>>64598121
His main problems with the prequels
>nonsensical, boring plots
>lack of proper characters to latch onto
>boring, stagnant direction

No matter what other complaints he has, those are the foundations of a movie, and all are failures in the prequels. When those elements fail, the entire film collapses.

TFA gets those main components right (IN MIKE'S OPINION just to clarify for the autists that don't understand how this works).
>>
>>64598121

A lot of the things he criticized the prequels for are also problems with the campy, garbage OT, you inbred moron.
>>
>/tv/ now believes that there is an exact science to what you are allowed to enjoy or hate, and that if you hated an element in one movie, it automatically you must hate any other movie that includes that element, regardless of the film's other elements

Mike:
>I like dinosaurs, Jurassic World was awesome

But Star Trek 2009 wasn't a bad movie.
Into Darkness was absolute horse shit.
>>
>>64599107
Thats all he fucking did though. He ignored the lazy plot, the souless shit shoved in only to sell toys, and the fact that they palyed everything so god damn safe. In the crystal skull plinkett video he says he likes Temple of Doom alot because of how different it is from Raiders. I want Star Wars to have the balls to come up with something new.

>"He was inconsistent before too!"

Thanks for agreeing with me I guess?
>>
>>64599256
>In the crystal skull plinkett video he says he likes Temple of Doom alot because of how different it is from Raiders
And he also points out that Last Crusade was a good point in the franchise to play it safe. It's pretty easy to see that he felt after the disasters of the prequels, TFA was also a good point in the franchise to play it safe. You can't just cherry pick things Mike has said.
>>
>>64598530
I expect professional reviewers to have some sort of method of objectivity. If they don't then their opinions cease to have value.
>>
>>64599417

It was meh, just like TFA. I'd say TFA is better for not having a horrible timetravel plot and less lens flare.

Okay. You're missing the point.
>>
>>64597162
>thinking anyone but illiterate flyovers think Trump is anything but satire come to life

Why can't Mike just write a list of rules for movies and then use it to objectively score each movie on HITB? I find his episode-to-episode subjectivity almost as maddening as their tiresome need to make jokes and gags.
>>
To anyone in this thread that is too autistic to understand why Mike would enjoy TFA: watch Plinkett's Star Trek 09 review. His same ideas and feelings apply.

Awww did we not like the reactions of people with didn't views than you own.

I get the point. But Force awakens was not a very good movie, and most critics praising it so much really bothers me. If episode 8 is basically a remake of Empire Strikes back will they praise that too?
