I thought I had read somewhere once they tend not to cover animated movies in general because they find they don't have much to say about them. Might be wrong.

They don't do them often, but they have shown up in the Christmas episodes. I wonder why they'd even bother putting it on the Plinketto board if that's the case, though I suppose it might have all been an elaborate setup just to fuck with Oswalt.

Speaking of which, I actually found the episode perfectly acceptable, even though I find Patton Oswalt about as welcome as a dark spot on a lung X-ray. More interesting than that screenwriter who shows up from time to time; much less irritating than Max Landis. But he's no Macauley Culkin.
 
One of the best comments got deleted :( Something along the lines of "after just a few week of staying with Rich Evans, Maccauley is already looking like him".
 
I'm forced to conclude that the only really negative side to Patton being on the show is just how distracting and out of place he felt. He's like Mike's old man routine only like, he's actually old. It didn't really ruin the episode for me but it was kind of weird. Also it might have been that they just got a bad roll of the dice on this one, the movies they got looked boring as fuck.

Is this Patton?

A reminder that the boys keep passing over this entry in the "action movie vanity project" canon, unless they're saving it for Jim and Colin.
I'd kill to see their reaction to the canoe fight.

Bleh movies and a bleh guest make for a bleh episode. Kind of like how Simon Barrett felt like Diet Jay, Patton felt like Diet Mike, even though I'd give a slight edge to the former.

It almost landed on this one but Rich moved it. My favorite scene is in the diner "Get the boys some milk and cookies!" Also the theme song is the greatest thing ever. YOU GOTTA FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO FIGHT YOU GOTTA FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO FIGHT
YOU GOTTA FIIIIIGHT
FIGHT FOR YOUR RIIIIIGHT!
 
I thought it was a fine episode. Patton didn't feel as out of place as Max Landis did and Rich was having fun with him. The rest of the panel was made up of the three kings so nothing to complain about there. I also assume Ratatoing was only on there as a gag for Patton and they had nothing else to say or do with it.
 
It was an okay episode. Patton didn't add anything but he didn't take anything away either. I don't even follow him on Twitter or pay attention to all the nonsense out there but he seems to have lost the it factor.

The worst episode is Black Spine Edition #2 followed by Twister's Revenge.

Those are odd choices. Neither of those seemed to be all that bad. I actually like those episodes where its just Mike, Jay and Rich gabbing about a movie. It'd get stale fast which is why they rope Josh and Jack in every so often but its neat to see on occasion.

I think I watched the Twister's Revenge spotlight twice and I can't remember a blessed thing about it.

Which Black Spine wound up being a spotlight on Partners? I actually love that one, though that might be because Partners was filmed near me.
