I think Last Vampire on Earth gets the most rewatches from me.

"Did you ever meet Jesus?"

"I heard him speak a couple of times."

[Colin dies laughing]

I think my favorite episode is Elves / Santa Claus / Christmas Vacation 2. That one really fires on all cylinders, and the movies are a perfect blend of so bad they're good to just plain horrible.

"Are you a Nazi? Is this your elf?" is one of my favorite lines ever.
 
Wich episode is your favorite in RLM? Mine must be between the "Star Wars holiday secial" from BoTW and Jack & Jill from Half in the Bag.
Don't know if I would say they're my favorite of all time but I really like all their Ghostbusters videos just because they do a great job showing why the original worked and why the remake sucked. ReView had a serious discussion on why the original was so great, Half in the Bag was a compare and contrast between the humor and writing of the original and remake, and the Plinkett review was fine but went behind the scenes to explain the rot at the foundation of the sequel.

I'd say my most watched Best of the Worst is Suburban Sasquatch just to hear the Sasquatch's roar every five minutes and my most watched Plinkett video would maybe be Star Wars Episode 2 just for the Romance Checklist scene.

Probably has to be the 2017 Halloween special of Best of the Worst. I've found that the movies themselves usually aren't that important to how rewatchable a BOTW is, rather it's the guys themselves. This one has Mike and Jack drinking themselves to the point of ruining the episode and then drinking even further to the point of saving it. Smashed Jack and smashed Mike arguing with each other for like five minutes about whether something was demonic or not isn't something that can really be matched anywhere else. Not to mention the ending. Legendary episode through and through.

My favorite drunk BOTW moment:

The Darth Vader armor top ten things you didn't know click bait one.
 
You know, this is making me realize that I don't think I've ever actually rewatched a Best of the Worst video, they're just too big time sinks for me to really justify not waiting for a new episode.

But now that they've been taking such a long break I guess it's a good chance, but it's intimidating with so many episodes now.

It also kinda worries me to go back to the beginning because I don't want to be freaked out by how different they look (I've seen enough clips to get an idea)

BOTW is by far the best thing they do, don't worry about watching them in order. Check out a Wheel of the Worst episode or one of the spotlight episodes like Last Vampire On Earth if you want a good starting point.

E: just realized you said REwatched. Still, the Wheel episodes are definitely worth going back to.

Yeah, I keep thinking I have to go back and rewatch them all in order but just picking random eps is probably easier.

Dunno if I have an outright favorite but the HiiB Man of Steel and ST Into Darkness are up there for me. They were one of the few outlets I saw that actually shit all over that fucking godawful Snyder movie (it was fresh on RT upon release but has dropped off since they continuously add reviews regardless of how many years afterwards) and it was nice seeing them not hold anything back (Mike mocking the Iron Man 3 detractors always makes me laugh) and the latter if only for the part where they try and go over the completely retarded Kurtzman plot about all of Khan's race sleeping inside missiles and Admiral Robocop promising to let Khan genocide him after he built him a spaceship somehow more advanced than what they already had despite Khan being asleep for the past 200 years (and that's just scratching the surface).

RLM works as a great stress relief tool after suffering through terrible movies.

Seeing Man of Steel and ST Into Darkness back to back permanently damaged my interest in movies, I went through a period of time where I would go to the movies very frequently, but I've been going less and less since 2013.

And yeah, those two episodes were very cathartic after sitting through those pieces of shit.
 
Did Mike/Plinkett ever use that test in the sequel trilogy? I remember him wasting half of the TFA review mocking the prequels and the ring theory.
I don't recall him doing so and I think that's a big loss for the reviews.

I love their idea for the making of "Santa Claus."

"Where'd we get all these children???"
 
It's too hard to pick a favorite. I struggle to pick a best HitB because I honestly forget most of them. The gay wedding storyline is the best storyline though. If I had to pick best overall I'll pick Halloween when they all got drunk and had to stop. Featuring probably the best burn Jay got on Mike, which rarely happens.

J "Did you think the science lab was a real science lab?"
M "Ohhhh youuu you PRICK"

Honestly, me too. That or Suburban Sasquatch. Those are two very special episodes. TUMS FESTIVAL is an epic moment from the Hollywood Cop episode, but that's the only part I actively look forward to.

The Half in the Bags I watch the most would probably be the Things portion, Battlefield Earth, Zaat, A Haunted House, The Black Ninja, or Flyin' Ryan.

Another favorite: Theodore Rex / Carnosaur / Tammy and the T-Rex. The mockery of Theodore Rex is spectacular; Carnosaur is a fun little B movie with some really gonzo concepts (ladies birthing hatchling dinosaurs is so weirdly out there I'd think it was someone's fetish if it hadn't been a Roger Corman movie), and Tammy is quite simply one of the most bizarre things they ever watched.

The only thing I regret is that they didn't know Whoopi Goldberg knew exactly what a piece of shit Theodore Rex was and only made it under threat of lawsuit. Just imagine what hay they'd have made of that.

I'm just trying to imagine a lawsuit that would actually lead to an obligation of starring in Theodore Rex.
