RED LETTER MEDIA AND ITS FUTURE
The inclusion of Macaulay Culkin in RLM and its consequences have been a disaster for the channel. They have greatly increased revulsion, destabilized episodes, subjected RLM to indignities, and have led to widespread psychological suffering.

Never seen this one, looks weird, but Mac and Rich were having fun talking about all the weird shit that happens it in so it made for an entertaining watch.

Raising Arizona is a masterpiece. It's weird in its first viewing but it's a slow growner
 
I find myself genuinely happy to see Mac living it up with these guys. Hope life is treating him well.
 
I was reminded of a movie I watched a long time ago called The Good Son, so I gave the Wikipedia article a skim. In it, Macaulay Culkin plays a boy named Henry Evans who has a deceased younger brother named Richard, who is portrayed in a photograph by Mac's real younger brother Rory. I didn't catch that name until I saw the credits, which lists "Rory Culkin as Richard Evans (pictured only)".

It's implied that Macaulay's character killed his brother and feels no remorse. I can only imagine that as he immersed himself into the mindset of this cold-hearted sociopath (as any actor of his caliber would), young Mac's mind was warped and embedded with a bloodlust for every Richard Evans he would meet from then on. It may start with Junka, but it ends with a black plastic shiv fashioned from a shard of Dancin' Grannies that no one noticed he was sharpening under the BotW table.

Rich, he's been to the studio. He knows what car you drive. He might even know where you live. I fear it may be too late for our Birthday Boy...
 
I wonder how Mike will feel about that new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie that's set to release in December. If you don't know, they are doing a film called, "Wonka" that's essentially an origin story of Willy Wonka. The director is Paul King who did the fucking Paddington movies. Wonka will be played by Timothée Chalamet who is the main character in the recent Dune remake. Mike has stated that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is his favorite movie of all time or at least the one his elderly brain remembers the most. The trailer makes it seem like it's going from some Benedict Cumberbatch, "Sherlock" humor or style. It's set in late 1800's Britain with of course many people of the melanin variety. I think the side character is some black girl or whatever. It will either be forgettable or entertainingly bad.

I think Mike likes Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Which is correct because that movie is fucking great. Not Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Which is atrocious. I think they already talked about how shit it is going to be on a different re:view or something, about how unnecessary it is. But maybe I dreamt that last part.

As annoying as Mac's laugh can be at times, I'm glad he's found his own little niche on the internet where he feels like he belongs. I don't think I've ever heard one person who's ever interacted with him has ever said anything bad about the dude. He just seems like a genuinely nice guy. Maybe a little over enthusiastic at times, but overall pretty harmless. The fact that he fits in with RLM like he was always there from the beginning never fails to warm my cynical heart.

I feel really bad for Capaldi. Dude was one of the best actors to ever get the role and was a genuine fan of doctor who since he was a child which is reflected in his amazing performance but was saddled with some of the absolute worst scripts in the show's entire history and his third series with the black dyke is unwatchable.

Just imagine, you're a doctor who fan since childhood, you manage to get a role as a guest star, already huge if you love the show, you perform so well that 5 years and 2 doctors later the showrunners ring you up and ask you if you want to play the doctor himself, and then they saddle you with the black lesbian and have you talk about the moon increasing in mass and how antipsychotics are bad. Genuinely sad.

But at bare minimum at least we have heaven sent to remember him by, proof that the man is talented enough to carry episodes (and arguably his entire series) all by himself.

If any doctor deserves a second chance its him, by far.
