Well I guess what they TRY to do is make it seem like the scene is so intense and unnerving that they can't even get a steady shot of what's going on, for example, gunfire in a firefight. But really they know it saves money because instead of setting off pyrotechnics or having elaborate setpieces they can focus on one person, film one explosion in the background and shake the camera to seem like so much more is going on. It's garbage filmmaking though. I can see using shaky cam once or twice in a movie, but many use it for every action sequence.

such a great movie! thanks for the reccomendation

The editing is always so damn good and catches me off guard sometimes. I've watched 7:15 about 10 times now and that tiny 1 second cut has me rolling

Watching Mike try to explain Dirt Nasty to Jay is the best

I've always wondered about that...I was at that Red Robin on 76th! Mike's a filthy liar- He tried to flip the table, but panicked after he spilled his drink. Then he just ran out of the building making whoop whoop sounds like Curly from the 3 Stooges.

Was this before or after he shit on the ground?

Before. In fact, when complaining about the fries, the manager called him a Hack Fraud, prompting him to shit on the ground in anger. When the manager laughed at him, he tried to flip the table, but got scared after his Freckled Lemonade spilled. During his harrrowing escape, he proceeded to slip on his own doodoo feces, before getting up and resuming his departure, all while whooping like Zoidberg from Futurama. I hope I cleared everything up. Btw, Rich was also there, and he gave the waitress AIDS. The end.

This sounds legit.

Watched this last night and loved it. Such a delightfully douchy main character by Rex, and I adored the cinematography.

Wow, pleasant surprise to see this one. Played at the theater I work at and I really liked it--of course like 5 other people came to see it over its 3 day run so I thought I might be the only one who watched it, haha.

If your amazed by the set dressing, don’t be! Texas City hasn’t left the 70s for awhile now

I love that Mike and Jay take a huge dump on Don't Look Up

This was the last movie I saw before Canada went into winter lockdown. It was a great experience, and I can only echo their thoughts.

The Red Robin tangent had me rolling. Thanks for spotlighting weird movies!

Bubble is such a great film! Never heard anyone else talk about it before.

Thank god you mentioned Don’t Look Up. I was starting to feel crazy around my friends and coworkers when I said it was a terrible movie and they were offended and said I didn’t understand the message. You guys are the best

It was not good. It reminded me all the time of how much i liked a media satire like "Wag the dog". Wich would be worth a remake because the original is dated. But you need a good writer and director who can make thecomdey work but make it work in a realistic setting. The way the scientists in "Dont look up" are portrait is serious and relatable while every one else is acting their "comedy" over the top. Its neither a good movie or smart satire. It just made me miss other movies more and left me with the Question if the premise could work better with diffrent people at the helm. Thanks for giving me the oppertunity to rant. ;)

It was kinda uneccessarily long and messy. The message was pretty clear Idk how could anyone miss it tbh.

It's the kind of movie that banks on a huge audience of dumb people who think the phrase "it's just satire" is an ironclad defense against valid criticism, and feel smart because they "got" the obnoxious message the movie spoonfed them.

I'm pretty sure best editing is just an award given as a consolation prize regardless of quality of the actual editing. Remember bohemian rhapsody?

Thanks for the recommendation - excellent movie - also watched The Florida Project which was fantastic too.

I'm really happy we started this off about Red Robin's fries. I legit have been thinking about it since the last time I went there.

I DJ'd for Simon when he did a show in downtown Orlando years back [yes, he rapped], super nice guy and real chill

This is a really good movie I saw it months ago. Glad to see they did an episode on it.

Yeah, I agree with a lot of what you guys said about Simon Rex and his (movie) character. I remember my first seeing him was during his MTV VJ days. Thank you, guys!

Can’t wait to watch this later on in the day.

Just watched it. amazing film

When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was gonna be about some 70-80's raunchy/slapstick movie I hadn't heard about, but like they discuss in the videos, its usage is actually so great - then when I hear its a Sean Baker, then it just makes that much more sense - really liking the sound of this movie and glad the boys gave it some of the attention it seems to deserve! Also glad to hear others going in on some the stuff from the "film" that was "Don't Look Up", seemed to have been a real flavor of the month "DO YOU GET IT?" movie that I wasn't hearing too much from the other side for, the mention of what the director does on his social media seems to fit lol, a movie that seemingly seeks to be divisive via encouraging tired stereotype-like gags for no other reason than a want to appear as artistically provocative. Thanks for another video and keep up the good work Rich Evans and guest stars!

Glad you guys made this video, because that poster was SO well done that I thought this movie was actually a dumb, Judd Apatow-esque boner comedy. I was like "what is this shit?", then it turned out to be a Sean Baker movie that I hadn't even heard of.

Mike, one trick I found out for Red Robin is to ask for fries once you order something with bottomless fries. It essentially serves as an appetizer and you get more fries to start with.

Everytime mike says Sandra Bollocks an angel gets its wings.
