Mr. Plinkett reviews the Star Wars prequels appreciation thread

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

We’ve had enough threads about the films and mentions of him that it’s time he gets a thread dedicated to his reviews. This dude may be a pure schizophrenic psychopath who likes to kill hookers ( :laughingphil: ) but his takedowns of these films may be even more vicious. The best part is that you may not even notice how informative his reviews are to the point that you learn what good and bad methods of filmmaking are (but your brain will). Quotable for days too

Phantom menace: part 1

who

 

[$$$HotBoyRonald$$$]

Did he ever do reviews of the new Disney ones?

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

Did he ever do reviews of the new Disney ones?

He did something for the force awakens but I don’t think he tore it apart like these

 

[Alpha Male]

So many memorable takedowns but the two that stand out to me:

- His breakdown of why Yoda using a lightsaber is foolish.

- His breakdown of why Yoda and Obi Wan are complete idiots for not just exposing the emperor using the VIDEO FOOTAGE they received of him swearing in anakin after killing the jedi children

 

[Code]

Those reviews are classic

Its shame that channel fell off tho, they're just contrarians now

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

fukk a Mr Plinkett

 

[Days of Future Piff]

When they had that whole romance analysis in Episode 2



And the way he broke down the beginning of the Phantom menace

How those droids landed on the wrong side of the planet for no reason

Or when they were escaping the blockade. They made such a big deal out of fixing the shield generator, and they never even got hit again after it was fixed, so it didn't mean jack

Plinkett had quotables for days...

(Episode 1)
"Maybe that's why they call him Qui-Gon Jinn... 'cuz he's always drinkin' gin."
"The two most effective, clear-minded logical guys stay on the ship and wait while the clumsy idiot, the slow-moving droid, a vulnerable, attractive young woman, and a drunk go wandering around a dangerous city."

(Episode 2)
"GET IN MY LIVING ROOM"

(Episode 3)
"So anyway, he [Palpatine] tells the Senate that the Jedi - an organization of monks who have been the guardians of peace and justice for over a thousand generations - have suddenly decided to take over the world. Oh, and I also happen to look and sound like a monster who wants to take over the world. Don't mind my creepy black cloak, my horribly evil-sounding voice or my terrifying face. Also don't mind the fact that I'm yelling about creating a galactic empire run exclusively by me. No no, you see its the Jedi who are the ones that tried to take over. That warranted them all being executed by the army that I control by myself without any kind of trial in the courts to prove what I'm saying is true. And then we burned down their temple, and you're all just gonna have to take my word for it. Trust me, look at my face. Would this face lie to you?'"

“Pump in more gas. Then keep pumping it in and if they cut their way out start shooting them in the face. Obviously you’ve never suffocated a hooker underneath your crawl space before (toxic starts playing in the background)”

“It shouldn’t be a problem? Ooh now I’m really on the edge of my seat. You know it really adds to the tension when the main enemy force is totally ineffective.

George: the Jedi cut the droids down like they’re butter. They really are kinda useless.

Plinkett: fukk you!”

“I have analyzed this film with two experts in the field of true love: porn star Jocelyn James and tiger woods. Both have provided me with valuable insights about love and stable monogamous relationships.”


“Let’s go over why stowing aboard separate ships is a bad idea:

Number one: they could possibly get separated by hundreds if not thousands of miles

Number two: increase the chances of getting caught by 100%

But of course they don’t get caught and land right next to each other ”


“Why exactly is the decoy queen in the throne on the ship? Would a queen thank a droid? Do the real queen and the fake one play games like this when they switch spots? When I’m queen, I’m gonna make you clean toilets . When I’m queen, I’m gonna have you die in a horrible explosion . Oh, wait. That actually happened ”

:laughingphil: times 1,000,000

 

[My Girl is Bow Legged]

I watched the ep 2 review like 5 times, has to be one of the best critical breakdowns of a film ever

I liked the prequels when I watched them as a kid but he was absolutely right about everything.

After watching the new films I've wondered if SW is only really good from a kid's perspective. I'm sure grown men sitting in the theater watching the prequels felt like I feel when I try to watch the new ones now

Phantom menace might be even funnier and just as detailed with how he breaks down that there’s no main character, no clear villain, and how we never even find out what the puppet villains even want. This guy really does know his shyt. Some things about the prequels can be fun but yeah they felt odd even when I first saw them and I was just 10, 13, and 16. The old ones are well structured films and the force awakens was too. I don’t see any storytelling violations in them. Last Jedi was worse than any prequels though. I can’t wait for his review of that.


Edit: the way he brought up copying imagery from gladiator, blade runner, and even from empire

[HipHopStan]

I'm still waiting on Plinkett's Rise of Skywalker review. I really think that movie kind of broke him. He was one of the originals to say J.J. Abrams should take control of the franchise and...well...

 

[Jaguar93]

Probably the most iconic YouTube movie reviews. That intro quote alone is iconic. “Star Wars The Phantom Menace was the most disappointing thing since my son.”

 

[Days of Future Piff]

I’ll hold my L for this… I was too hard on George Lucas. The Prequels have a lot of issues but they’re still better than this new trilogy.

This new trilogy was made up on the spot. At least the Prequels had a roadmap.
