I know we’ve gotten on a huge tangent here, but regarding RLM; I really think they’re old and out of touch these days.
I just watched their review of Alien Romulus, for instance, and they were asking questions like “where did all these new facehuggers come from?” When the movie clearly stated that they were genetically engineered using dna from “big chap.” At one point they also go “the first film clearly established that every alien hive needs a queen,” when that was really only established in the second film. They completely forgot about the egg-morphing from the deleted scene of the first (which I’m pretty sure is on the director’s cut, which they claim to have seen).
That’s just one of several examples of how lately they’ve been making more mistakes/ overlooking details. Their memories are getting hazy, and they seem to have a harder time actually paying attention to the things they’re watching/ reviewing… IDK, they just act really old now. Too old, too ignorant, too grumpy, etc.
They’ve been that way for a long time and it really pissed me off. They really just do not pay attention, and I think they do it because they think it’s funny and relatable to act confused. They would also do that a lot with information they’re not directly familiar with. They have an encyclopedic knowledge of certain dumb and obscure things, but the idea that Taskmaster was a popular Marvel villain, for example, gets played up into this crazy wild nerd concept for them to act baffled about. I don’t even care most of the time, it’s just annoying when they pretend like having some information or context is somehow beneath them.
