This show is hilarious. I recommend it hightly, especially if you want to see Disney openly making fun of the prequels just as much as any RedLetterMedia video.

The third and fourth episodes made fun of the OT just as much.

Oh I know, but OT fans have an actual thick skin and can take it. They were good movies despite whatever flaws they had.

Seems to me that both sides of the Prequels debate have pretty thin skins.

I have yet to an OT fan so thin skinned that they were compelled to write a 108-page essay defending TPM from mean old Mr. Plinkett.

Yeah. This can't possibly have anything to do with the World Wide Web not being around when the OT happened.

I can imagine that ROTJ would have been controversial if the web existed back in 1983. People still hate the Ewoks to this day.

The Special Editions were produced during the internet age though and they got plenty of complaints.

Do you really have nothing better to do than harp on about PT fans and how much they suck?

Here, on a site called stardestroyer.net? No, not really.

I have plenty of other posts in other threads that have nothing to do with PT fans and how much they suck.

To be absolutely fair to Jim, Red Letter Media is unwatchable drek and incredibly stupid. I mean, he got a little long-winded, but he wasn't wrong.

Didn't Jim only write his response because RLM kept being cited as some sort of authority despite being horribly wrong on quite a lot ?

Or at least that's the impression I got from our thread on the rebuttal. I've never watched RLM's videos or read the rebuttal. But I don't remember being impressed by any of the people showing up to try and defend RLM.

I still have the rebuttal saved on my computer. And yes, he wrote it because RLM kept being cited despite being horribly wrong (and stupid). I've watched bits of the review, but as I said, it's unwatchable drek; I cannot bear to sit through it.

I have a question for you Galvatron. Given that you feel a 108 page essay is long enough that you can make judgements on it from the length alone, how long do you think a point by point rebuttal to Plinkett's video should be ?

Even if you think the prequels are terrible cinema, those videos are so much worse I can't believe they were ever considered worth watching.

I would rather watch three hours of nothing but Jar Jar antics and nine year old Anakin than any of his videos.

I think it should have remained undignified by a serious response, let alone that 108-page embarrassment.

So your preferred response to a lie that keeps being repeated by people who believe it is to ignore it ?
Wouldn't that only let the lie get stronger because nobody is presenting any credible descenting view, but RLM fanboys keep repeating the lie ?

For example, the fanboy you linked to who decided to write a blog post in 2014 to respond to something published in 2011 that he had trouble finding a copy of.


How exactly is that document an embarrassment ?
I will then use your reasoning to decide how embarrassing you linking to that blog post is.

RLM's video is basically one big movie review telling the world why TPM disappointed him. Where's the big "lie" that necessitated a 108-page essay to refute?

The blog post that I linked to may have been more recent, but it made headlines on other sites when Jim wrote it. It's no less embarrassing now than it was then because of how serious it was.
