Half in the Bag Episode 160: Us and Paddleton
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 бер 2019
- Mike and Jay talk about Us, the biggest movie at the box office and the highest opening for an original horror film ever. They also talk about Paddleton, a movie that didn't get a theatrical release and that you've never heard of.
Reason you haven't seen Ray Romano all these years cause he was doing voice over work for all 500 Ice Age movies.
@TogoSasquatch ...Fun Fact: The "Ice Age" films from BlueSky Studios were a spinoff of "Land Before Time", the "Ice Age" films would have been Cel Animated and a bit more serious if "Titan A.E." didn't flops so hard..... I bring this up since "Land Before Time" currently has 14 movies and counting.
The show Get Shorty is solid!
Plus the TV show is COMPLETE garbage absolutely STUFFED with unlikeable characters, starting with Ray himself. It's supposed to be funny how wormy he is.
@@RamsTheNameCom titan ae flopped? Haven't seen it since I was a kid but I remember loving that movie. Nostalgia goggles?
@@RamsTheNameCom Hey I dont hate Ice Age it just got over saturated like Land before Time did. If it gives Ray Romano a paycheck then am sure he's not complaining. Am just saying thats what hes been doing when not in movies. It still is movies or was but only his voice.
I like how Mike just calls Avengers Endgame “Thanos”
Air Bud is the Best I wish it was just called “Avengers: Thanos”
Isn't the full title "Thanos: Hand of fate"?
@@MyHabbits Are you...some sort of deity?
An involuntary poop transplant??
In The HOOOOOOUSE
"Close down the cinemas!"
....Monkey's paw finger slowly curls
This is a genius comment
Damn, you beat me to it.
Fuck this is a top tier comment! Nice dude lol
I dunno after watching the Wish Upon video this seems more like a genies curse
Us is basically the same story as the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode where Bart discovers he has an evil twin that’s shackled in the attic and is fed fish heads
Or the invasion of the body snatchers
Which is basically the same as the subplot of Jane Eyre with Jane's evil twin Bertha chained up in the attic.
Don’t forget that the evil twin was actually IRL Bart so in the end he gets shackled in the attic
It's also the exact same plot as The World's End but with clones instead of Aliens
I felt like this was a easy movie to predict while doing a boring job to think about the trailer enough. It's a doppelganger movie so it's either demons or government experiment. It's a double movie so someone is going to be switched at some point.
I really like this idea of tricking us into learning about small films
Curse you RLM for expanding my pallet!!!!!!!
THESE HACKS ARE GIVING THE SCAM ARTISTS THAT PREY ON MY INDIE TASTES THE SPOT LIGHT.
FUCK THESE FRAUDS
It worked kind of the opposite way on me. I wanted to avoid spoilers for Us, so I only watched this to scrub past the Us review and see them rip on a pretentious Mark Duplass movie. Then it turns out they covered it first and it's good, WHAT A TWIST!
SHILLS!
Honestly I'd like more of that
Jay’s impersonation of the sin counter is spot on
Mike in March 2019 - "Shut down the cinemas!"
Cinemas in March 2020 - "Okay"
HE did this to us! GET HIM!
I was thinking the exact same thing :P
Mike snaps his fingers and half of society goes down lol
@@MiikaKontio Probably colluding with Fauci in secret.
I like how every film youtuber makes fun of Cinemasins.
@@Jagonath Yeh, and there was a good video on Empire Strikes Back where they highlight cinemasins actually editing out clips to fake problems with the movie.
I read"Cinemasins" like "raisins".
@@Donball Lol
Featherman R because they’re dogshit. I also enjoy the criticism
Nott What’s the video? I want to see this haha
Thank God I'm unemployed and can watch this in the middle of the day.
I'm so sad and hemorrhaging money, yeee haw.
Same
Same
I envy the unemployed just because of this video
I’m watching this on the job, fuck it.
So Paddleton isn't about a CG bear in a colorful fictional world?
Ah yes, the fictional town of London, UK
@@christopherlowery3797 It's definitely a fictionalised version of London. Paddington doesn't get stabbed at any point.
great comment
It's more of a spiritual successor.
Ironically I haven't heard of "Us" and came for the Paddleton review. In Ukraine, Paddleton was at the top of my Netflix page for a week.
Hey 2ch
Netflix is telling you that you have cancer
Netflix thinks Ukrainians love depressing shit

I thought the title said "Us and Paddington" and I was ready for hella whiplash
I love Mike and Jay throwing shade at the CinemaSins guys lol
One of the worst channels on UA-cam. Nitpicking to the extreme and giving impressionable people shitty views on watching movies.
Well deserved shade. It's like the annoying neckbeard everyone went to high school with is now a youtube channel.
@@Nope2479 To be fair, the nitpicking is a part of the joke. They're not actually giving valid criticism, and they don't really want to.
Other than that though, yeah they're lazy, and boring, and they make other people think dumb shit about movies. I've never really liked them, but I've liked a couple of Jeremy's solo videos on his channel.
They deserve more than just shade thrown at them. They deserve to be thrown into the dark sewer and tethered where they won’t be seen again.
@@BrokenGodEnt is it me or is "it's part of the joke" usually a defense for something trying to be funny but failed
Honestly if they wanted to partner every BIG BUDGET HALF IN THE BAG film with a VOD movie that would just be fantastic
agreed

Hands Across America is the key to all of this. That's where Mike learned how to be a hack fraud.
Can we all appreciate how few ads RLM are running on a 42 minute video?
Apparently they had a run-in recently where youtube auto-inserted a ton of ad breaks into dozens of their videos
And instead of just leaving them, they manually went video to video and got rid of the ad breaks youtube added in
Deep down they care, they careee
daiselol At work I play botw in the background and there are still a good number of those with an absurd number of ads. But I immediately thought that was weird, because it was a recent development. Like I say, I’ve seen all of these half a dozen times. But even so, I love these guys.
@@hirooonoda441 or we could support or favorite content creators like not jackass's
Justin Pruitt you choose the amount of adds once you’re channel gets ad revenues. You can choose at the end of the video beginning middle or end or un-skippable adds. But these hack frauds don’t need more money from us.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought you were reviewing Up and Paddington
i want that episode

lets be honest, he just wanted the chance to use a Star Trek mug.
It’s interesting to me how positive Mike was about Us, given his repeated insistence that for horror to work for him, there need to be well-defined rules. The Tethered are highly inconsistent with what they can and can’t do.
The frauds discuss it during this review. To paraphrase it very loosely - for a good horror movie you need established rules OR you need to be a parable of sorts, a well-delivered metaphor

"That's why I think Jordan Peele is gonna be great doing Twilight Zone"
Well that didn't age well.
It's because Jordan peele was just reading a script he had no pull
@@shadymcnasty5920 its very telling that the stuff which is directed and written solely by Peele is much better than the stuff which is "from Jordan Peele" but usually co-written with a group and directed by someone else.
Why is it when I think of mike and jay watching these indie netflix films, I just imagine them huddled on a couch with a blanket watching it on a little laptop, just like a sleepover
To be fair, Conan gets millions of hits on his remotes and basically anything non-talkshow-related. I'm glad he cut his show down to focus more on those aspects.
...sorry, I meant "Is the Conan show replacing Half in the Bag?!"
Yeah, Conan is still the best late night host and I still watch him.
A shit ton of people do, they just don't tune in live for a late show anymore because that is more for the NCIS audience.
As someone who constantly rewatches Conan remotes and BOTW at night, hearing Jay say all that hurt my insides.
Almost reported this as spam until I saw the last sentence.
@@SWong37 The best late night host who's currently on the air, at least. I'd still watch Craig Ferguson nightly if his run hadn't ended five years ago.
Guess I'll watch Paddleton now since this is the first and only time I've ever heard about it. GOOD JOB NETFLIX!
Why are they just now reviewing Up and Paddington? It's 2019 this belongs in Re:View
Joe Vigil honestly, I got really excited that they were going to review Paddington but then I reread title.
🤣🤣
I like that Mike is miming smoking a cigarette when he does his impressions.
Indie mumblecore sounds more like a music genre.

Has Mike always had pointy Vulcan ears?
Yup, once you notice, you'll always see it.

If there’s a doppelgänger of Mike and Jay perhaps they look at the “Worst of the Best Movies” underground.
They really should do a "Worst of the best" where they sit down and watch high budget, terrible movies
I hate your profile pic
They are Nukie fans and can’t get what’s wrong with it
I’m sorry if the pic is creepy
@@MaxLoafin Pretty sure that's THIS show... DUN DUN DUNNNNN
I really think _Us_ would've benefited from being more vague in its explanation or having a supernatural explanation that didn't beg so many questions. I know it doesn't bother everyone, but for me, the logical problems are almost all I can think of when I think about _Us._ I think it really hurts the rewatchability of the movie. It's harder to take the tension and danger of the earlier scenes as seriously when you know the explanation doesn't make any sense.
I'm also of the opinion that's Peele's films, ironically, appeal to an audience that doesn't actually watch horror movies.
I’m with you. Especially that last shot
*SPOILERS*
With the chain of people crossing mountains, I just threw my hands up. I guess they do have a copy of everyone on the planet. And they all got matching jumpsuits, gloves, and scissors. I also don’t totally understand the “shadow” thing. Like sometimes you can control your opposite with movements and other times they give no shits. They also lost me a bit with the main family’s copy being very dramatic with their sit down, while the other family just walks in and stabs them all.
I'd be genuinely interested in your opinion of the rewatchability after you've seen it more than once.
@@afriendinthevoid6522 SPOILERS
Also, one thing that annoyed me most was the lack of stakes. Like, after they don't kill the dad multiple times when he clearly should have died, you know that nobody is ever in any real danger. It made me think of A Quiet Place and how, despite my issues with that film, they establish real tension and stakes from the very beginning. I never felt worried for any of the main characters in this "horror" movie.
OriginalMasters Ah yes. Yeah that works with *SPOILERS* for the rest of my replies if any. Spoiler thread.
With the twist reveal in the end. And the rest of the family followed her lead with that since she was obviously the coordinator. Good point.
I like how the Us trailer reversed the footage of the car-fire scene. It subverted my expectations!
"I'm really looking forward to that new Twiligh Zone series!"
*laughs in hindsight*
I don't know exactly how much absolute control Peele had over the production, but the exposition monologue felt like something that producers demanded he put in. Personally, I would have been 100% fine with no explanation whatsoever; it's clearly more about the metaphor and the imagery than it is about the logic. But I also understand that even an incredibly effective, well-crafted movie will put general audiences off if it leaves large portions of its plot unexplained. Great movie, tho. You guys didn't talk about the music or the sound. That was something I noticed and really loved while watching it.
That does make sense, but who knows, maybe it was him that thought audiences would be confused or annoyed without it.
That's what killed it for me. It was a solid 4-star movie to me until the plot sucked me out of it. There's just too much that doesn't make any sense.
I would have loved for a lack of explanation like Jay mentioned with the ...of the Dead series or the Silent Hill games.
I can't honestly see the metaphor for class struggle in the film. The fact that there was no interaction or exploitation of the tethered makes the argument for class metaphor to be impossible.
Brian Holmes
There IS a lack of explanation. Yeah, she tells them what they are but that’s all you get. There’s way more they could have delved into and I’m glad they didn’t. I actually think Jordan Peele did this himself. I saw a lot of dumbasses on Facebook and whatnot who tried way to hard to create fake theories for Get Out and it ruined the movie for a lot of people and turned off some from watching it. He even said himself that people were over analyzing it. This was his way of circumventing that.
Last time there was a double bill episode, Jay was Amish
And a Spookie.

Love Jay’s Shaun of the Dead tribute pocket stain. “You’ve got red on you.”
This is for Mike. I just recently watched US and finally was able to watch this episode and I have to say thank you so so much for Paddleton. I am a 48 year old male and this one got me. I didn't think it was going to hit me as hard as it did by the end based off of the first 15-20 minutes. Ramanos character was really bugging me at first, but by the end, I was crying like a baby. A great little movie with a huge heart. So thank you again for pointing all of us to this film.
Why did you release this in the middle of the day, you hack frauds?!! I'm at WORK!!
They're appealing directly to the EU audience.
They've finally sold out for real
It's early Thursday morning here!
Perfect end of the night for me in Finland :D
@@WanderingChin this is illegal in the EU though
something to look forward to when you get home, grab some beers!
Joe Pilato featured more in this unrelated review than he did in Mike's Joe Pilato story.
RIP
I finally got around to watching Paddleton and I think it's the best film I've seen this decade. I loved it so very much. The ending made me cry and a week later I still can't stop thinking about how sad it made me.
Nobody:
Mike: That's right Jay.
Did I do it right?
Sasaki no
Nobody:
Mike: THIS MOVIE WAS SO BAD IT GAVE ME DIARRHEA. STAR TRACK
I give Paddleton 6 bags of popcorn, two sodas and a 'we have worked with Tim Heidecker' subversive reference
Agreed, they should have left things more vague, once they explained the tethered world, it drove me crazy thinking about it.
Same. I don't care if the movie is a giant metaphor. If you place it in the real world and keep it realistic the entire way through, don't bitch when people point out how the logistics of the plot make no sense at all.
Yes because it was dumb & iknow yt fanboys wont believe me but im 2for2 on calling the plots to jordans peeles films tho i do enjoy their "aesthetic"so i say hes over hyped & everyone licking ass.
I'd have appreciated it much more if they'd keep it more vague. I liked thinking that those red clones were our dark halves or something - that's why the white guys had to die. They were too far gone, too spoiled, rotten. But no! They're just fuckin clones who live underground. And it opens up itself for so many plot holes!
I don't care what the themes are if the film's bad at surface level. And this one is 3,maybe 4 out of 10.
@@The1RealDarek I would have preferred it if they were like from a shadow universe like how Hell is depicted as being our world but broken in the Constantine movie. Or if it wasn't explained at all.
But they got you to keep thinking of the movie, even now your probably trying to think of possibilities in it's universe.
Something to be said for that.
Us reminded me of the episode of Star Trek where Kirk gets split into a good version of himself and an evil doppelganger in a transporter accident...
I thought that the part Lupita says: "our souls are connected" or something was Jordan's way of saying: "don't think too much about it, it doesn't have to make perfect sense".
Mike thought the red jumpsuits were orange.
Weird, Paddleton was all over my Netflix main page (Netflix Portugal) for a good while. Also Ray made baaaaaank by voicing Manny the Mammoth from the Ice Age movies.
FUN FACT: In the opening scene of US they reference a film shoot nearby. That is a reference to THE LOST BOYS which was shot on the Santa Cruz boardwalk that year.
I assumed this was from this march when the intro was "close down the cinemas" and im convinced rlm is the new simpsons.
Mike's been making a joke for years about how maybe he just wishes theaters would die...
Careful what you wish for
If anyone is interested in Mike's Joe Pilato story, I believe he talks about it in the BOTW Star Wars Holiday Special episode.
RLM is the best of what UA-cam can be. Content that reflects the creators, never feels corporatized in anyway, and. funny while insightful.
shut up nerd
I like that Santa Cruz is "this little small beach town" to Mike. But I'm VERY disappointed that Jay didn't pick up on the line about "they're filming a movie over on the carousel" which would've been The Lost Boys.
It's like youre my mom and you are sneaking vegetables in lunch quesadilla
Wait, Mike Stoklasa is slurping coffee while Jay is the one drinking beer?
What is this, the mirror universe?
Slaaneshi cultist it’s Us
@B Hole Don't blame me, I didn't even vote.
"Ambitious but sloppy" is an accurate description of Us. Peele did a great job using the originality of the premise to pull off some thrilling and suspenseful scenes. However, I felt that the material got out of control. It is one thing to nick-pick logical gaps in the story, it is quite another to point out that these gaps meant it was difficult to follow the narrative. There were times in which I was unable to relate scenes to the wider story, lessening the emotional payoff. It's a shame, too; I really felt this could have been something special.
Somewhere in Hollywood: bees....space ship....THIS IS GOLD!
There’s so many movies on Netflix that I always panic and just watch the third Lord Of The Rings for the twentieth time
Sure, the superhero, sci-fi, horror extravaganza is great, but I love it when Mike and Jay review just regular old plain-ass dramas.
I forgot about that episode of HitB with Tim Hiedecker. Haha
I love how redlettermedia has its own made up place called wisconsin where its winter all year round

Brace yourself for the epic conclusion to this cinematic trilogy, Stuff
Part of the It trilogy.
@@brunovega6479 The Stuff was the first movie in the trilogy you dingus.
Seriously tho, there is an actual horror movie called "The Stuff" which I think was trying to be like "The Thing" as it had a semi-similar monster and twist. We just need one more "The [insert vague term here]" to round things out into a nice even three and we're good.
When Mike touches his nose, he looks like Slavoj Zizek.
**Sniff**
Yes, but without being an unrelenting marxist piece of shit.
You know Stoklasa is actually a Czech name, so makes sense they might look similar
That's my favorite Star Wars character

Amazingly enough, I saw Paddleton a few weeks ago. I can confirm, its fantastic. Go watch it.
Finally got around to seeing Us, and the twist was so obvious I'm honestly wondering if it was even intended to surprise the audience at all. I called it as soon as the opening scene closed with the two girls in the mirror house.
Me too.
Good review, good conversation. I appreciate this a lot.
Yep, and I learned a movie I didn't even know existed.
We just going to forget about all the ice age movies??? Smh and you call yourself “critics”
Is this in reference to something in the video or did they just not reference the iconic ice age films again
@@adamwirth7788 They made a comment about Ray Romano disappearing for a while.
@@adamwirth7788 It really annoys me how every episode of Half in the Bag ignores all of the Ice Age movies or even any of the classic movies produced by the Blue Sky animation studio.
Genuinely really appreciate you guys recommending smaller movies and putting them into your big movie reviews. Please keep doing that! I’ve seen a few really worthwhile movies I never would have known about from your year in review videos

A movie doesn't have to stand up to endless scrutiny, but Us doesn't stand up to any scrutiny at all.
Thank you so much Mike and Jay this was one of my favourite episodes of Half in a bag. You paid both of these great movies a lot of respect. I had never even heard about Paddleton but today watched it and loved it
"There's gonna be assholes asking: where did they got all the jumpsuits? Is not that kind of movie"
You mean, the kind of movie that makes sense? Because, you know, you can make a statement about classism and whatnot AND also have a coherent script.
Mike and Jay throwing shade at Mumblecore and Nietzschian Cowboys. Best part of the episode.
I rather like Conan since he started doing TBS.
The bit where he travels around the world is pretty good stuff.
that, Clueless Gamer, and any time he trolls the shit out of his producer, Jordan Schlansky.
Mike's rant about movie ads was the best, funniest, most concise and well worded rant that i've heard in the last few years.
Honestly, 'Us' sounds like a Junji Ito story. But Ito definitely would've kept it vague.
Accurate.
Poopscipade Us has the same problem that Gyo has where it explain too much but also not enough
@@nykcarnsew2238YES! That's the best way to describe it.
But I prefer Junji's stories, he does overload them with exposition sometimes but not enough in others.
@@Persephone01 most of his stories are really bad, but all of them are also really charming in way. Junji Ito has become a genre on Its own. I don't even read his mangas for the plot anymore, I read them just because Junji Ito wrote It.
But I enjoy peele's movies. It feels genuine in my opinion
Most accurate description of Netflix discovery I've heard.
there were 11 rabbit cages going across in the rooms during the opening anthem of US. the details in that film were lovely!
Just glad i have found you guys. Satire and sass, a great outlook on these movies. I am very much enjoying binge watching your stuff.
This is one of your best episodes yet! I love hearing the insight of the modern movie ecosystem is like and getting in depth of the nuances in making and marketing a movie. You guys should teach a college course lol.

Hands Across America was the Ice Bucket Challenge of its day.
You two are my favorite duo of reviewers! I love this show! Thanks so much Mike and Jay
I watched this Half in the Bag two days ago, thought Paddleton sounded good so I gave it a watch and absolutely loved it! There's no way I would have found it without you guys recommending it so please keep doing these kind of smaller films on Half in the Bag (as well as all the big films that you normally do)
I love Mike’s “Hands Across America” story. More stories please sir
the daughter in “Us” actually does make a reference to fluoride in water at the start of the film- clearly just a joke, but interesting link!
Not really
good catch, everything in a screenplay usually matters to the overall story of a movie.
Pol arity thank you for the quality response
She's breaking the conditioning
“It was a pretentious nightmare.” That’s how I felt about Us.
Amen.
I think the Hands Across America thing provided a good contrast with what was actually happening in the movie, which was an actual revolution of sorts. Whereas Hands Across America and charity in general can be seen as rich people doing just enough for poor people to make them feel good about themselves.
