Oh definitely not, that Rey doll was incredible.
According to last night's Pre-Rec stream, that was a real fire that happened because Mike put a firecracker in the Popcorn machine.
The internet was a fucking mistake

I wonder how they feel when they read stuff from high profile directors who love/respect their work.
Im not even a Rian Johnson fan and this tweet would make me rock hard for a month straight.

Oh God.
How do people get away with saying cool all the goddamn time?
Every time I write a review I'm scared to use the same adjective twice, and I certainly don't receive boxes of comic book shit every week..

Hilarious. Got some Simpsons flashbacks with the popcorn maker.
Really funny episode. As someone who is starting to get really sick of Star Wars (it's freaking everywhere! I love pizza and burgers, but I'd start to hate them if I had them everyday), this was cathartic. It was also hilarious.
They keep hitting them home runs.

The great thing about this is that it's a character that we know

I just rewatched this and realized that these guys are literally just fucking making infomercials
Holy fuck. You're right. I never thought of it from that angle.

Another thing I think would interest you guys is that Jenny Nicholson recently did a review of several The Last Jedi toys she managed to get a hold of.
Here's the link.

I knew she seemed familiar, she did that Suicide Squad sales pitch video last year. Thanks for the link, i'll have to watch some more of her videos.

You don't get to bring friends.
I remember her mostly from her Rogue one review which is also good

The first page of this thread is a graveyard. WTF is up with that?

It's from 8 months ago, plenty of opportunity to get yourself banned. Look back to any old thread from months/years ago and you'll see something similar.
It's only four posters. Older threads are much worse.

The best part is that Mike makes up some parts of the backstory on the spot, but the rest of the stuff is so stupid and his additions fit so well in that you can't tell what's real from what's fake.
For example, Lobot actually helped steal the Emperor's personal yacht, but the yacht was not called "The Galactic Terror". Also, the entire section about Lobot's sit-in and the discrimination against cyborgs is fake, but it all sounds so real. It's stupid, but so was the "Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center".

Was the description of Vader's suit and the medical center fake too?

The medical center is real. I had to look that up to be sure after originally watching that video.
Im not sure on the rest.

"sometimes shortened to ChanPal SuRecon Center"

My guess would be that the stuff in the Darth Vader suit episode was all real (the EmPal SuRecon Center is definitely real), since the entire video was about making fun of the stuff in the Star Wars EU and how ridiculous some of it was.
After showing how ridiculous the EU could get in that episode, it made it easier to sneak some additions of their own into the backstories, since they weren't any more ridiculous than what came before (Poe's Law). They would have only gotten away with it if the Darth Vader video was completely real. I don't think anyone would have fallen for the stuff in Nerd Crew 5 if that original video wasn't all real information.

That moment where Jay reads from a script when he says Justice League will be good had me dying. I also need a gif of Mike saying DC is a thinking mans comic film asap.

I love how they manage to make each episode unique and make fun of a different aspect of nerd culture. This one was mainly trailer reactions at the start (and how they're all basically the same, which is something they've dealt with before) and then the DCCU in the second half.
Mike's sarcastic describing of DC movies as the intellectual super-hero movies is so on-the-nose and accurate that its scary. I've met people like that.
I also love how they put Kylo Ren's mask on the Darth Vader doll. The R2-D2 sticking out of the wall is another nice touch.
Anyone else here who would actually watch Mr.PiggyEats if it were real?

That back-and-forth between Mike listing off the Star Wars pattern and Rich going "don't forget Infinity War 2!" was amazing. All in one take it seems and Mike nailed keeping a straight face through it.
