Went to Max Landis' twitter to see if the tweets were still there or deleted, and....

In that video, Jay even acts surprised that Mike even liked it. Weak argument from the guy.

what a salty little asshole

The reviews have been largely mediocre to negative. Instead of whining that two internet personalities didn't like it, and bring decent arguments for it, how about complaining about everybody else?

And the review for Jurassic Park told exactly what the movie was. A stupid fun blockbuster. It's dinosaurs and a man with two margaritas. What's not to love? Not to mention that Kay was highly critical and Mike was basically just "fuck it I enjoyed it I guess"

They liked (didn't love) the Chronicles, totally lukewarm towards the Hobbit movies, and split on the JW.

I'm sure they will mention this on the Wednesday stream.

 

[E the Shaggy]

Landis is going off on Twitter some more. What a child.

i hope they give him the attention he deserves. Which is like a crack at him at one point during their next review

"Hey Mike did you hear about X movie?"

"No, but I hope it doesn't suck"

"Jeez we better not give our opinions on it, or the writer might start twisting our words on twitter"

 

[inky]

There is no such thing as "on point" criticism of art. Only stuff you agree with and stuff you don't.

They should just call their reviews art. Then everything he says is invalid amirite

I didn't realize Landis was such a fucking child.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

I can understand being disappointed that people aren't taking to something you've created, but Landis is acting too immature about this whole thing. I mean, it's not like he wrote the Citizen Kane of movies.

 

[ElTopo]

I like Max but those Tweets don't paint a pretty picture of him. He falls back on tired excuses.

Yeah.

 

[Sephzilla]

Max Landis is exposing himself to be nothing more than entitled little punk.

I'm also pretty sure Jurassic World and all three Hobbit movies were in fact better than his stupid Chuck knock off.

is that so surprising when he only has a career because of nepotism?

"my dad killed three people on set, buy my script!"

I'm starting to think he can't think of an original idea on his own.

• Chronicle = Super hero tropes meets Akira
• American Ultra = Jason Bourne and Chuck do the DBZ fusion dance.
• His most notable Youtube videos = Low budget retellings of 90s comic book stories & wrestling

This guy's notoriety seems entirely built on the work of others.

i can hardly hold that against him. nothing is original anymore...

Well, he sure seems to think it's original.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I just saw The Trailers for American Ultra. Ehhhhhhhh


If you want a Better version of that just watch the TV show Chuck.

Chuck wasn't a GAFer though. The plot revolved around anxiety stricken stoner Jessie Eisenberg, and his inability to leave his hometown.

C.I.GAY? Half-assed Bad-ass?

Why aren't these hack frauds running Hollywood again?

Tonight's stream will be just Jack playing MGSV at the usual time.

I loved the development from "well yeah, fuck them" to "OMG I WANT I WANT I WANT!!!!!".

max changed his tune real quick

 

[Secret Fawful]

Killing 'em with kindness.

 

[brianmcdoogle]

I hope Landis lets them create a mock VHS copy of American Ultra to put on the wheel.

 

[BassForever]

This is like Len all over again. lol

Was Len originally mad on twitter about their comments in that BotW episode?

dont you mean all 8 choices will be American Ultra?

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

Was Len originally mad on twitter about their comments in that BotW episode?

I don't think so. I think he's just glad anybody is even aware of his films, let alone making videos about them.

 

[Shy]

Stream is up. sorry for my lateness.

 

[Cheerilee]

The bigger deal is max responded and seemed down with it

My first impression was that Max was being sarcastic.

If he's being genuine, then that's great for everyone involved.

 

[plasmawave]

And someday Max will get to critique Space Cop.

 

[BassForever]

And someday Max will get to critique Space Cop.

I half expect Space Cop to show up on BotW, get trashed by them, and then get destroyed for being a terrible film made by hack frauds.

 

[Aiii]

If they have Max Landis on, I'm afraid the world will overload with the hack fraudery of it all.

Too many hack frauds to process all at once.

Max has a very ADHD personality (I think he actually has ADHD and he's admitted to being Bipolar) if that wasn't obvious then you should watch his appearance on Screen Junkies:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ad4T7c7T1So

I don't know if he'd work on BOTW or a Half in the Bag because he's so hyper whereas the RLM crew have a more subdued and absurdest style of humor. It would be interesting in a trainwreck-y way though.

 

[barik]

He was also on The Indoor Kids podcast recently, but I couldn't finish it. He's absolutely insufferable to listen to.

Man that haircut doesn't suit Landis.

 

[ElTopo]

I just remember roughly 3-4 years ago when there was a stream that had Feeding Frenzy and Mike and Jay were in the chat room taking some questions. There so many fans in there asking questions that Mike was mindfucked by the barrage and the chat had to be slowed down.

I don't think Mike could handle Max talking at about a 100 miles per hour.

Pre-Rec: Rocket League

Well, they sold me on the game. Bought

 

[davepoobond]

for me i feel like rocket league would get old kind of fast. i couldn't imagine spending more than like 7 hours on it.

Do you like actual sport games or arcade sports games?

i enjoy both

I thought the game looked super boring when streamers were playing it during release, but seeing some of the youtube highlight vids changed my mind, it really is pretty crazy when people aren't doing that little league ball chase.
