The picture of Rich that they use is amazing. I wonder if that's his actual headshot.

I am 99% sure that picture they chose for Rich is in the middle of him saying "AIIIIIIDDDDDSSSS."
But good for Rich. He has one of those voices they could work well in certain cartoon characters.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

And Gregg Turkington!
His role as Agent Klingston is unmatched by any actor in history.
We've created a Very Cool monster....

I like that 90% of the replies to that tweet are about Rich Evans.

I'll admit this kind of inconsistency really bothers me but you don't need to make a video analyzing the fucking thing.
Edit: In their video title they call it the "scargate controversy" 😓

More of Rich Evans' foresight in action. He called Super Mario Run almost 2 years before it released.

But you have to watch it to see if it appears in full force D:
What if they wait until the last episode to showcase the Rich Evans laugh?!?

Didn't they say they have a hard time replicating it outside of real situations where he is laughing?
They should just use a sound clip from BOTW.

They also hire Mike to come in behind him and pop out the official Rey doll form the nerd box. Instant laugh
YouTube recommended this to me for some reason

Not really funny, but interesting to see there was a time when Jay was fatter than Mike, lol.

I'm guessing Jay had a deal with the devil to swap bodies with Mike.

Haven't watched it yet but I hope they love the ending.
I feel Jay would be one to laugh at it like I did.

Grandma: "but there's 5 of us"
Me: thanks grandma. I couldn't count
Now the only thing I'm thinking about is Rich voicing Beedle in Zelda BOTW.

lol, all those shitty horror movie endings. Reminds me of Descent, which had its ending changed from hopeless (i.e. kinda like The Mist) to idiot jump scare between regions.
Never been interested in watching this movie, but I'll watch this I guess! Already had the ending spoiled ages ago anyway.

Man, watching those clips of Tom Jane and his son in this summary is so tough now that I'm a dad myself. And I'm glad I saw this before he was born, because I don't think I could watch the ending and not be completely broken.

If anyone was disappointed with the Silent Hill movie - which is all of you - and you haven't seen The Mist, watch The Mist.
I fucking love The Mist but the tone is really not quite there.
Fun fact for anyone who hadn't heard this yet: I believe Gabe Newell has said the short story was an inspiration for Half-Life.
On the first episode of Plinketto they had Star Crystal as one of the possible selections. I was hoping they would watch that one. If you though the Mist had a lame ending, watch Star Crystal:
The film is a Alien ripoff, with an Alien monster killing most of the crew in a spaceship. At the end, the monster hacks into their computer and reads the bible. it then decides that humanity is ok and they all really just had a big misunderstanding about one another. It communicates with final 2 crewmembers and they come to a peaceful resolution. Later it announces that it has to leave and they have an emotional goodbye scene at the end. Then a sappy love song plays over the ending credits.
I love The Mist's ending.
In Red Letter Media Watches the Ending of Resident Evil: Afterlife, Jay describes the ending of Resident Evil: Afterlife as "borderline experimental". It's a very particular ending for a very particular kind of movie.
The Mist's ending is almost the exact polar opposite of that. It's transcendent. It could have worked as the ending of any film in any genre. It is truly all things for all people.

I was laughing more at the Palpatine voice over mention.

I had totally forgotten that Darabont used the crew from The Shield for this movie. What's Darabont doing these days? Just living off of TWD royalties?
Even R1 fans aren't sure what the fuck Whitaker was going for in that movie.

I saw the Mist in theaters and didn't know this going in. Once the military started talking about a portal to another dimension I couldn't stop wondering what Gordon Freeman was up to while we were watching Thomas Jane vs the religious right

The Mist is somewhat special in that it doesn't shy away from revealing 'good people' to be just as bad as anyone else. The social is not the moral, and every pretense -as RLM points out with the logic of the main- is cast aside in the movie. That is what's great about it.
The rest, like the ending, is kind of just fluff. It's that uncompromising vision that makes it worthwhile.
Also, if you think that's a depressing ending, watch Halloween 3: Season of the Witch. Or just about any episode of The Outer Limits. I never get complaints about "the ending wasn't good enough", in particular because changing it destroys the fucking story. You might even argue that the ending of the short story is actually even worse, which Jay really should have pointed out, because in that one
edit: fixed the missing 'not' and 'no'. Apparently my brain has a MISSINGNO or something. :\

they arrive at a different town, but the mist remains, presumably indefinitely, as it kind of functions as metaphor. The movie shows that it does end, which is why it's such a punch to the gut. It's a literal perversion of the "must have a happy ending" trope, which is what I mean with 'avoiding pretense' since there are no happy endings in reality either

I think the Mist movie ending was one of the few instances where Stephen King in all of his air of superiority said that he wishes he would have come up with that ending for his short story
BassForever

Which is funny because it feels like a Stephen King ending
Does King pretty readily admit that he's awful at coming up with endings for his stories?
Fairly certain the 11-year-old's having a gangbang did that for him decades ago.
