- In the epic conclusion to Half in the Bag's "Hipster Trilogy," Mike and Jay discuss the "final" Hangover film (unless it makes a ton of money and a Hangover part IV is rushed into production) as well as After Earth, the latest collaboration fo two of cinema's finest: M. Night Shyamalan and Will Smith.
I once spent a whole year thinking John Goodman was dead.
My brain constantly mixes him up with John candy for some reason
I thought he died as well.
John candy has been dead for a long time now. Which actually is a shame since i really liked him...
i was sure john goodman wasnt going to live through the 00's, i remember after roseanne ended i saw him in o brother where art thou in '02 and thought 'oh he's still alive! good for him'. flash forward 16 years and hes in the best shape ever now
yeah I'm glad he's still with us.
He's a great actor.
You think thats bad? Up till 3 years ago I thought Chris Farley was still alive.
This is the second best clip that has both Will Smith and a GI Jane reference
So after 1000 years of Humanity's absence. The animals EVOLVED to be able to kill us? That's like saying everything alive on earth now has evolved to kill dinosaurs. Or martians.
Dinosaurs are still around, man, there's lots of animals that have evolved to kill dinosaurs.
Like cats, yeah.
James Mildenhall and also 1000 years wouldn't be nearly enough
i think the idea was supposed to be everything on earth has evolved to the point it is inherently hostile to homo sapiens, but of course it's M night shit show so it sucks and is explained wrong.
Do you think that we won't kill dinosaurs or martians?
Mike: "It's a coming of age story."
Jay: "Well, the kid learns to stop listening to everything his dad tells him to do and just do what his dad probably wants him to do, without having to tell him."
Razor sharp observation of art imitating life.
Wasn't there a more successful vehicle for Will Smith to glorify his son called 'Pursuit of Happiness'?
@@diamondrel5190 Great movie but whitewashed how horrible of a person the actual man it's based on was.
Two times is the charm
I love that Tim Higgins has finally become a regular on Best of the Worst. His cadence and drunken midwestern accent keeps my suicide delayed every time he shows up.
You could swap the plots of these movies and it would have been really entertaining. The hangover crew wakes up in post apocalyptic world, will smith and his underage son get drunk for 2 hours. 🤣
Your so right Had a good laugh at the thought of just the hangover crew waking up like that 😂
9/11 was an inside job, preserve the truth!!
How the hell would that be entertaining you creep
Legit would think a movie where Jaiden and Will found themselves lost in Vegas be a pretty funny movie.
Agreed
Damn, Jay looked like a Courage The Cowardly Dog villain.
17:11 "I guess his wife, Jada Plinkett Smith..."
Oh my gaaahhhd.
Watching Will Smith bumble his way through that interview where he tries to sell this piece of shit while Jayden looks on with contempt is amazing.
How can you even tell that's contempt? It's just his one facial expression
9/11 was an inside job, preserve the truth!!
@@helloitismetomato. Yeah, but that expression screams contempt and incredulity from what he’s hearing his father say.
We all have to suffer for nepotism in Hollywood.
We all have to suffer for nepotism
We all have to suffer
It’s too late now, but I’d rather mediocre nepotism flops than successful quid pro quo à la Mr “IMBD picture should be a mugshot”. Having said that, his movies were great, so great.
@@lc9245 nepotism flops are the quid pro quo imdb mugshots
So wait a second. It has John Goodman, as a Badman?
Underrated comment.
Jada Plinkett Smith.. Lol
when i saw her singing i genuinely started convulsing, thats how much it made my skin crawl. she really is the most loathsome part of her family, even more than their naming codes.
@@ILIKEWALLS hmm
@@turtleanton6539 hmm?
Jada Plinkletto Smith Evans
It's cute that Mike thinks Jaden reads books.
@@AlucardsQuest it's cute because mike is such an optimist.... 😂
It's cute because Mike is cute
😅
damn you guys were mean to that 15 year old
Sometimes I forget Jay used to try and rock a mustache-less beard. I think they should hire the people who removed Superman’s mustache to try and add Jay’s mustache back in these old videos.
Shyamalan's best twist ever - going from Hollywood's most promising director to a living dumpster fire. I wonder how his story will end.
An Oscar?
It also involves a dumpster
turns out he was a ghost all along
Probably with death. That’s how every human’s story ends.
He becomes a great director. That'll be a fucking twist.
The Naked Gun seems to be the only comedy series that actually remains funny after roman numeral two.
Didn't they make like 33 1/3 of those?
What about Austin Powers?
@@Largentina. don't forget the six-episode mini-series
Austin Powers 2 was funny introduced mini me and fat bastard
@@aerrowqueing Goldmember was pretty bad.
I still can’t believe M. Night’s film career actually managed to (mostly) recover from the ten years that culminated in After fucking Earth.
you didn't mention the last airbender. but then again, that movie should never be mentioned.....again.
what are you talking about? there is no movie in the last airbender fandom
M. Night's best movie!
Can't wait for the Hangover cinematic universe!
That universe ended quickly.
Must've had high entropy or something......
I love how the wheelchair hipster steals a bunch of Plinkett's pills on his way out.
This is the best hipster bashing I think I've ever seen.
"There's something about VHS. It's like so organic. Y'know like there's like this fidelity in the sound"
a friend n i setup a vhs to watch the non special edition original trilogy of star wars and i will never ever watch anything on vhs ever again, its absolutely awful and im not usually put off by questionable quality
Any technology that's been obsolete for long enough gets romanticised, see also horses, Fireplaces and Candlelight.
Technology: horses *Horses* *HORSES*, additional technology: Siamese Cats, Sheep, and beehives.
lol, but he clearly meant horses used as transport
@Potato King actually, there are allready people converting floppy's into flashdrives so it can be used as a floppy...
54 episodes into my marathon...I see mr plinkett in my sleep now
M. Night Shyamalan-"The Next Uwe Boll"
Perfect.
Speaking of Uwe Boll, I just saw his boring piece of shit "Rampage" movie.
After Earth also has heavy Scientology undertones. If memory serves, the final fight is at a volcano, where, if you don't know, the aliens were tossed into by Xenu. Also the whole concept of conquering your negative emotions (thetans, or whatever they freaking call them). I actually enjoyed the movie, though only because I enjoyed picking apart the Scientology propaganda.
Thanks for posting this. Fuck Scientology, lol.
The irony about Scientology is that no one would care about their stupid beliefs if they didn't exploit the shite out of vulnerable people.
@@tastyloaf5487 So, like... religion?
You probably see scientology undertones in Barney the dinosaur. You see what you want to see.
Choosy Beggar :_)
It's crazy looking back at Will Smith's filmography and seeing how much he slaps in all of his roles.
9/11 was an inside job, preserve the truth!!
You mean sleep?
@@matheusnerypradogazotto7566 Slop.
The strangest thing about "The Village" for me is I SWEAR I read a short story with the exact same plot in when I was in high school. I actually went to the movie thinking it was an adaptation. To this day I have no evidence the short story I thought I read exists.
The story HAS to have been done before. I called the “twist” from the first commercial I saw.
Check out “Running Out of Time” by Margaret Haddix
@@michaelcullen5308 Didn't the Twilight Zone do that story as well?
There’s a Goosebumps book about a “ghost camp” or something that’s similar
What a twist…
Going to a party dressed as Christian Slater in True Romance is a genuinely brilliant idea and I don't even care if I'm seeing things that aren't there.
You're so cool.
That footage of Jada Pinkett Smith "singing"......was fucking cringeworthy.
I'm here, again, watching an old half in the bag, again..
I thought the funniest scene in the happening was Mark Wahlberg talking to a plant.
Stormwern what? noo
I thought is was when he started singing to the door of the farmhouse to convince the guy inside that he was sane.
Lawnmower scene
I still say that film was intended as a glorious troll on Shyalaman's behalf.
🌭
Funerals are hysterical... especially in Spiderman movies.
AH! I'm insane with anger!
Are you going to murder me?
Poirot's Mustache
What? No!
maybe he confused his kids and his daughter is the one with the acting talent and his son the one with the singing talent... maybe...
Except Jaden wasn't as bad in the Karate Kid reboot, maybe he got worse as he got older?
like...hellooo.
like...hellooo.
@@roach9397 tbf ur seeing that movie thorough nostalgic lenses as well. He was pretty terrible in that movie just wasnt as much of failure. But there is something to be said of Jadens acting ability getting worse over the years. I actuay thought he would become a good actor after i saw his performance in the pursuit of happiness.
@@roach9397 , his head gradually disappeared up his own ass.
I really doubt Jaden Smith read moby dick...
*****
Well he can type, it just happens to be stupid shit.
Its mostly wills fault. Jaden's ego has been built up and now he thinks everything he says is brilliant. When he gets older he's going to regret all of it, of course once its on the internet its always going to be there.
Most trees are blue.
In their newest joint interview, Jaden and Willows Smith let you know they read Osho and "things that can't be pre-dated".
M Hedonist I read that interview yesterday and I couldn't believe how crazy those kids are. The things they were saying were insane.
I really doubt Jaden Smith can read.
Will Smith's face while Will Smith was bull shitting the interview was priceless.
I liked the Hangover better when it was called 'Dude, where's my car'.... ;)
Before that there was also a japanese movie called Monday which is undeservedly unknown.
@@kohinoir7202 The Night Before (1988), with Keanu Reeves. Pretty good comedy.
Waking up not knowing where you are is basically a trope, not a plot.
I was unwise and decided to take a sip of water when Mike started talking in Jay's voice. I almost choked to death.
+Christopher Cinema a very similar thing happened to me: I had the bad idea to fart while he was making his british accent, so I shat myself. I now have to change my pantaloons.
+RatchetandSly I'm pretty confident it was 4 gallons.
+Virgil Aeneid When he puts the can over his mouth and says 'The Hangover Part III'. 1:20
My dad always joked that he'd pay to watch will smith fold laundry... ...probably woulda been better that way
GI Jane and Will Smith in a review? RLM predicts the future!
When I was a kid I liked to watch At the Movies with Siskel and Ebert. Good times. Now I like to watch these hacks. Go figure. Good times.
I still miss Siskel and Ebert
Yikes, Will Smith was more reactive in that interview than he was in the entire film!
I have a theory that the "real" Will Smith is closest to his After Earth character.
Actors don't need to be good at experiencing emotion, just faking it. His apparent charismatic and sociable nature in interviews could be as much of an act as it is when he's playing a character written that way.
He's also said in multiple interviews that the relationship between the father and son in the movie reflects their dynamic at home, and that he was using the movie as a way "to parent" Jaden.
And this movie was his baby. He called up Shamalan to ask him to make this movie as a vehicle for his son to become an action star. He *wanted* to play an emotionally detached character who is pragmatic and calculating without empathy for others.
It's like he's trying to send subtle clues to tell us that he too is emotionally detached from other people, including his family, and is coldly attempting to use his son as a tool to keep himself and his brand in the limelight and continue to profit from it.
Not saying that this is definitely the case. And if Will Smith is like that, I don't want to suggest that people with antisocial personality or sociopathic traits are necessarily bad or dangerous because of the way their brains and emotions work.
I've just always gotten a vibe that he is not who he presents himself to be.
@@janeeyre1990 Interesting theory
This trend continued…
Hahaha, I love watching their reviews of movies that I have never seen, and will never see, normally due to a healthy serving of self-respect.
Here here
Mike's mini melt down about Will Smith's kids having to act or sing😂😂😂
HE'LL PAY FOR IT! HE'LL WRITE THE CHECKS!
Has anyone noticed that this episode both reviews a Will Smith film and includes a reference to G.I. Jane? Prophetic...
I guessed the twist of "the village" from watching the trailer. I said, "if I'm right I'm never watching one of this frauds movies ever again" and I was right, and I kept my word.
What a perfect time to revisit this. The smith's are insane
Imagine what the money that made After Earth could have been spent on instead.
An unlimited supply of merkins?
A trip to space?
Hospital bills?
Naah fuck that noise, I wanna see a stupid little rich twirp try to be his daddy.
It was not the Cloverfield (2008) monster, it was the Outlander (2008) monster. It was the same size, same shape, it was also carried from different planet in a spaceship, which crash-landed on earth and the main character has to fight it with melee combat, before the other spaceship comes to the rescue.
I want to be an ordinary popstar
These two movies will fit nicely on the Wheel of the Worst 2040.
32:55 RLM predicted the Smith Family Meltdown! RLM can see the future confirmed.
I think everybody could have predicted the Smith Family Meltdown.
The start of the After Earth trailer followed by Mike swallowing laxative pills just about sums up what people think of M Night Shameaboutthelastfilm.
After Earth was Awful! I don't think his accent sounded British though, it was just the sound of mumbling boredom. Should have been a sign in reflection I guess...
the 5 seconds of mike talking in a cockney accent was funnier than the hangover part 3
All I ever wanted to see in life was Mr. Plinkett laughing manically for destroying a VCR while Eddie Murphy’s “Party All the Time” plays in the background
Jay looks so damn good as a cowboy
He's not a cow boy. He's Bau man.
"In the epic conclusion to Half in the Bag's 'Hipster Trilogy,' (unless it makes a ton of money and a Hipsters part IV is rushed into production)"
Your guys' reviews are always way more entertaining than the actual movies.
Speaking as an English person, I think Mike's Cockney accent is fantastic!
The flashback scene where Alan buys drugs from black doug was actually pretty funny🤣
"Will Smith's legs are broken." Much like his careeeeeer? (said in a voice with rising pitch).
Mike and Jay covering their mouths to paste in the name of the movie never gets old.
I gotta admire how you guys painstakingly photoshopped all those Pabst beer cans into each individual frame that they appear in. I mean, that's a labor of love right there. It even makes actually BUYING them start to look reasonable by comparison.
?
***** That's the joke.
Game of thrones stole the idea from this show.... I smell a suit
Love the movie reviews you guys make. Great i can drink with you guys during... Please keep making these forever...
I appreciate their respect for Britney Spears and playing her song at the party scene
Ed Helms' style of comedy is SCREAM, they will think it is funny.
32:52 Another RLM prediction
The hipster saying "I think I want a cane" is pretty priceless.
Jaden's face at 21:00 is perfect
Your hipster dialogue in this episode was incredible. Extremely accurate depiction. I was surprised by how believable their lines were, honestly.
Mr. Plinkett has to be one of the most charming characters on youtube.
The dude in the Shawn kemp jersey is killing it
Mike's description of the Hangover 3 was hilarious.
The Will Smith song at the end is one of the many things really bring this episode together. Great show, once again.
Jay: "This is the most bizarre, misguided modern movie franchise I can think of."
DC: hold my fucking beer
I hope that magnatron had some solar-radiation absorbing system, to shoot a laser beam at whoever tried to copy that tape... After Earth, that is.
I have never seen after birth, and I never Will, nor shall I inflict it upon my children no matter how much I grow to loathed them.
There, take that Holly, so called, wood!
Good one
I love that all our main characters are actually villains haha.
so that’s why this one is in my feed.
the giraffe was HILARIOUS
Also starring "Actor" Rich Evans.
In my opinion, the fact that a character in a film is driving around with a Giraffe is funny, but when its head gets chopped off and smashes through a car window that's just lame shock-value which does not appeal to me.
I don't think it's fair to dismiss M Night as just getting lucky. He was on his way to being great but just imploded from a massive ego, or something. After Airbender I gave up on him for good. Then The Happening... Would actually be great if you guys could do a M Night marathon review, or something.
I agree. I actually think M Night is a fantastic writer. Airbender didn't work for me.
Watch "M. Night Shymalan Sucks" by YMS. Search it.
The Sixth Sense sucked. There, I said it.
Whenever I watch old videos like this (bc I only discovered RLM - and many other things - during COVID-19 lockdown) I get the urge to time travel into the room and be like "GUYS! I'm from 2021! Listen, you were totally right! Todd Phillips makes a fucking JOKER ORIGIN STORY that's basically TAXI DRIVER, and JOAQUIN PHOENIX WINS BEST ACTOR!!!!!" Just to see their fucking heads explode. For real, imagine if you went back in time and told ANYONE that the "Hangover guy" makes an Oscar winning Joker origin story POST-NOLAN, no one would believe you... lmao.
I just realized that after they finished reviewing the movies, Eddie Murphy's "Party All the Time" was faintly playing in the background. Remember his music career? No?
I guess you could say that After Earth.....
Is about family.
"Hey! - Hipster" = best line. Keep up the good work guys, great channel
I don’t know how you found after earth to be dull, i laughed my way through the whole thing
Love Mike's reaction to Jeff Who Live at home
“This is the most bizarre misguided modern movie franchise I can think of”
Star Wars Sequel Trilogy: *hold my broken beer bottle of a script*
Afterbirth 3: Electric boogaloo, coming to theatres near you.
"Watch it on your Boxee" made beer come out my nose
Mike: "I made a Magnetron."
Plinkett: "I made a Magnetron."
Dan Wilson: "I OWN IOWA'S LARGEST WILDLIFE PRESERVE."
Loved the After Earth talk.
Mike "running" to the table during Hit me baby one more time is probably the most epic thing I have ever seen. God I love that man :)
Yikes, Mike tell us how you really feel about Will Smith 😂😂😂
1983 is the year I was born! I feel soooooo fucking old now, thanks bro
I always flash my PBR's in hipster run territory.
Love the Eagle Man reference, I remember those commercials from when I was living near Chicago 😅
