The Nerd Crew releases their review of The Last Jedi after attending the star studded premiere in Los Angeles!
Okay Jay/Rich this is the rough edit. Insert the final trailer after it's uploaded this Sunday or Monday (You'll see the spot for it) This way we can have the reaction video out before everyone else. Our reactions will probably match up to the trailer as these SW trailers are pretty boilerplate and predictable at this point. Remember DO NOT POST THIS anytime before the official release of the trailer. We'll look really stupid. Also, Rich - a collection agency keeps calling my phone looking for you. They sounded pretty mad. Made some comments about "breaking your legs" - which seemed a little unusual for collections? Your gambling habit hasn't resurfaced again has it? If so we need to have a talk. DO NOT borrow money from Jimmy "the leg breaker" Malone anymore. Okay, talk with you guys soon. - Mike

A little while back, Justin Roiland (co-creator of Rick and Morty) asked a bunch of creators (including us) to shoot a weird commercial for his upcoming video game, Trover Saves the Universe.

Mike and Jay realize there are no newly released movies worth wasting any amount of air on and discuss some recent-ish movies instead! The Academy Award-showered Doctor Sleep, and the box office bomb that nobody saw, Parasite!
To avoid being exposed to horrible illness, Mike and Jay stay inside and explore the depths of Hulu that nobody has ever explored before: Blumhouse's Into the Dark, a series of cheap scary movies that are all shot in one location.
Jay and Mike watch Verotika! The embarrassing feature film debut from metal icon Glenn Danzig. So you know what that means... it's time for a quarantine watch party! Invite 100 to 200 of your best friends over to your 500 square foot apartment to all watch it together!!! Close all the windows and pass around the same glass of beer for everyone to share! This film is so terrible you'll rub your eyes in disbelief! You'll laugh so hard you'll cough all over the extra large bowl of pretzels everyone is grabbing from with all their filthy unwashed hands! What a treat! Could this episode have been 10 minutes long? Sure. But why not breath in the same air with all of your sketchy friends in an unventilated room for an hour!
Stuck inside during a global apocalypse, Mike and Jay decide to discuss some stuff that everyone already talked about months ago. In part 1, they dig into everyone's favorite nightmare meme, Tiger King, as well as The Invisible Man, ironically one of the last big movie to play in theaters before they...disappeared.
Still stuck inside, Mike and Jay talk about Gretel & Hansel, Vivarium, and the most anticipated movie of all time, THE BOY 2!!!! Is there ANOTHER boy living in the walls??? Stay tuned to find out!
Well it's come to this. Mike and Jay have nothing better to talk about than a DVD where Neil Breen talks about himself for almost 6 hours and a mostly forgotten 80s movie called Rawhead Rex, written by Clive Barker and shot in Ireland for some reason. Nothing matters anymore.
Mike and Jay finally return to work to talk about two movies that didn't have their release dates pushed back a year: The Assistant, a tense and slow drama about workplace harassment, and The Wrong Missy, a tense and slow drama about workplace harassment.
Stuck inside the VCR repair shop, Mike and Jay decide to talk about two movies they've seen recently on streaming services because movie theaters are still closed and Hollywood is burning.
Stuck in the VCR repair shop, Mike and Jay talk about a bunch of stuff they've watched because they have nothing better to do.

Mike and Jay face the music and review the new 30-ish years later Bill and Ted sequel. Once again, they are joined by their very special guest, the noisy cricket. That guy just loves sitting in our their discussions!

Mike and Jay go down a rabbit hole of shameless rip off movies! Specifically Willy's Wonderland starring Nicolas Cage and The Banana Splits Movie, two films """"""influenced""""" by the premise of the video game Five Nights at Freddy's. Which one will be deemed The Best of the Worst????
Believe it or not, Half in the Bag has been going for 10 years now. Here's our sad, pathetic celebration!
Mike, Jay and Rich Evans talk about the 4 hour long version of The Justice League aka "The Snyder Cut"!
Remember Godzilla? Remember King Kong?? Well they're back! Again! Godzilla vs. Kong is a movie with Godzilla and King Kong in it and it's out now and that's the movie.
Zach Snyder's back! Again! To make both a zombie film AND a heist film, and fails at both. Booooo-urns. Come for the blurry, nauseating cinematography, and stay for the dead pixels.
Movie theaters are starting to open back up and long-delayed blockbuster sequels are finally starting to be released like Fast and the Furios 9, A Quiet Place 2, and The Conjuring 3, so naturally Mike and Jay decided to talk about a small, surreal British movie. It's Censor!
In Black Widow, Scarlett Johansson is back as Black Widow: the super spy who's here to do super spy stuff. Except not really. There's no spy stuff. She literally just asks her fake mom where the main bad guy is and she tells her and that's about the end of anything spy related. Then she flips around a bunch and her body slams full force into many, many, many hard objects which would result in her breaking every bone in her body if she wasn't made of CGI.
Mike and Jay check out the new movie The Suicide Squad. Not to be confused with Suicide Squad.
Mike and Jay watch Nelly Bloomcramp's new film "Demonic" about a lady who uses some kind of motion capture rig to talk to her demon-possessed mother in a coma. Mike continues with his new scheme to steal Mr. Plinkett's blood in a much more compelling story.
From the director of The Conjuring and Insidious and Saw and The Conjuring and The Conjuring, it's...MALIGNANT! The scariest of the year if you're a Warner Brothers executive. Is the entire movie one big joke???? That's not rhetorical; we really don't know.
After learning that their secret camera of Mr. Plinkett is no longer working, Mike and Jay arrive at his house to get those sweet sweet anti-bodies. However, instead of continuing this interesting plot line, Mike and Jay decide to talk about Halloween Kills - a film that's much more realistic and fascinating. It is that spooky, scary and most evil time of the year: October through June! What do Mike and Jay think of this newest Halloween installment? Oh come on, you know...
Mike, Jay and Rich Evans talk about the third sequel to the classic perfect comedy film Ghostbusters. If at first you succeed, fail, fail, and fail again! But this one's got kids in it.
Mike and Jay take a little break from tracking down the Omega variant infested Mr. Plinkett to talk about an important contribution to cinema: The Matrix: Resurrections. This episode also marks an important milestone. It's the first time Mike only drank one beer instead of 5 or more. His dementia is in full swing though. Watch this elderly fat ass try to form coherent sentences is like watching a manatee jump rope. Jay does a pretty good job talking about the movie though.

Bruce Willis makes a dozen movies a year and you've never heard of any of them. We thought we'd dive into this strange phenomenon and figure out what's going on, where these things come from, and why they keep getting made.
We're not done talking about Bruce Willis movies! For some reason. Or more specifically, for no reason. There's been two more terrible Bruce Willis movies in just the month since our previous Bruce Willis video so we wanted to get caught up. Also discussed: the Hulu series Pam and Tommy, a good show that you probably don't care about.
In this latest episode of the post mortem movie show, Jay and Mike take a look at one of the biggest bombs in movie history: MOONFALL! From the director of a bunch of other movies that somehow were popular and successful despite being equally terrible to MOONFALL! Thanks, Roland Emmerich! Your works of art will live on for generations of idiots to come.
Mike and Jay check out Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, the latest MCU movie. Yep, another one of those!

It's now officially June and the start of Summer! The first half of this year was a pile of crap but Jay and Mike did watch a bunch of movies that they cared so little about they nearly forgot all of them! The magic of the silver screen is back, baby! Mike orders a can of beer from the future! Jay rambles on about the new Robert Egger's Egg. And the posters on the thumbnail DO NOT represent the order in which the movies were talked about. That would have made sense, right? I should have done that from the start. But now that it's made, I'm too lazy to go and fix it because it's a nice day out and I'm going to the beach to swim in my new clown themed unitard.

Mike and Jay take a break in between fixing Mr. Plinkett's VCR to review a movie that came out 3 years ago: Everything Everywhere All At Once! I hope everyone has had the chance to finally see this film! WARNING: Video may contain coarse language, smoking, drug use, and Mike talking about Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Mike and Jay take a break from binging Mr. Plinkett's prescription pills to talk about a movie called The Black Phone! Not to be confused with The Black Cauldron, which is a completely different object that also happens to be black. The Black Phone stars Ethan Hawke and is directed by Bagul.
Mike and Jay discuss Prey, which is an attempt to reboot the Predator franchise. Not to be confused with The Predator, which was an attempt to reboot the Predator franchise. Or Predators, which was an attempt to reboot the Predator franchise. Fart in a jar.
There comes a time in two men's lives when they never watch The Batman. That time is now. Instead, these strapping young gentlemeeps watched three films that lay somewhere in the middle of the movie-greatness spectrum. Watcher, I Love My Dad and Vengeance. Three movies you may have heard of or seen available on your streaming servonk. These moopies are entertaining, interesting, lovable and sometimes flawed. But isn't that everyone of we? Does not pirate them. Support filmmakers making something other than Game of Thrones prequels or billion dollar Lord of the Rings prequels or whatever sharts are coming out soon (except for the upcoming 96th season of Ghost Adventures where the gang is sure to find their most compelling evidence yet!) Anyways, watch moopies that make you think. Make you feel scared. Or make you horribly uncomfortable. Everyday doesn't have to be a Tums festival but everyday can be a lovely day where you give a little indie movie a chance.
There comes a time in every two man's lives when they take a bunch of Glembezza, get super old, do an opening bit that goes on way too long, then watch two films on streaming. That time is then! Jay and Mike talk about two floms they watched weeks ago! Why aren't they talking about movies in the theater? Welp, I looked to see what was playing in the theater and it was: The Muppet Movie from 1974, some kid shit, something called "Honk for Jesus, Jaws from 1977, and some Teen romance film. Yes, the movie theaters are truly dead. They'll fill the screen with literally anything! Why go to a disgusting nightmare-world where you sit in other people's trash to see The Muppet Movie? So Jay and Mike watch two films of very good quality on streaming as they do and review them. Movies truly are magical. Tune in next week when Mike gets an illegal broadcast on his TV by the toynbee tiles guy who is currently broadcasting Clown Doll on all frequencies.
The time has come! Jets! Dinos! Thors! The internet freaked out when Jay and Mike reviewed a handful of rando indie films they probably haven't heard of. The internet said, "Why does you not talk about The Batman! Or other biggie moopies I seen with my Nanna!? Why you talk about ironic, self-indulgent hipster rubbish?" They all want Jay and Mike to tell them what to think about movies like Top Gum™, Dino World™, and More Marvel™. Then Mike and Jay talk about More Marvel™ and other such big action films and the internet says, "Why doesn't you speak of Barbarian? Why doesn't you go to a dark theater and watch Barbarian and sit next to a creep in a turtle-neck sweater touching himself while he watches Barbarian?" To this we say: WE DO BOTH! This time in Half in the Bag, Mike and Jay talk about three big summer movies in a year without a summer.
It is time yet again for evil to die tonight! The online movie discussion world has turned into the angry town mob of Haddonfield with their pitchforks and irons in hand to take aim at Halloween Ends, the third and final film in the David Gordon Green trilogy of Michael Myers movies. Grab your candy corn and Activia and listen to Mike and Jay make you angry for 45 minutes!!!!
Nearly two months after the films release, Half in the Bag continues to be the leading YouTube channel for the fastest reviews of new films! It's the time for Jay and Mike to talk about the most talked about movie of 2 months ago, Barbarian! This time Jay and Mike sit down as themselves cause they were too lazy to do their HITB storyline. But what did they think of Blarbberry? Does they liked it? Was it boring? Was it too preachy? Does the monster scared them? Did it have too many plort holes? Or was it different, fresh, inventive and fun? Only the guy who made the boner comedy Miss March could pull off a horror picture with an anti-misogynistic message. Jay usually likes creepy trash so my guess is he liked it. The other one, the fat dumb one probably didn't like it cause he only likes old Star Trek and he should jump off a bridge. - Rich Evans

We watched Night Court.
Mike and Jay narrow down some of the worst rated films of 2023 and pick one to watch. It's called Snow Falls and its something someone made that takes place in a large cabin house. Digital snowflakes fall on snowflakes as they gets cold in the film and can't handle basic survival skills or something and they just get too cold because of the film's premise. Someone made a movie and wanted you to watch this movie cause the trailer makes the movie look like it could be fun. It kind of looks like a movie you've seen before. Young people in a cabin and things happen but in this film nothing really happen. It gets cold and they can't leave the cabin, but they really can. I guess the roads are out but no one ever show me that. Why not drive away from cold house? Why not? No one liked this film, but Mike and Jay may talk about it for longer than anyone on Earth. Why did they? Why review this when them could review newer better or more populated films? When?
Cocaine Bear! It's that movie that everyone was joking about for about a week and then completely forgot. Jay and Mike talk about it. They also talk about Knock at the Cabin, the latest film from N. Night Shyamalan. It's about a cabin that has a knock at the cabin. They also talk about The Whale, starring Cocaine Bear!
An Irish guy shot the latest installment of an American franchise in New Zealand. It's Evil Dead Rise! The first Evil Dead movie in a decade. Is the new film worth traveling to a disgusting movie theater to see??? Only the idiots that bring their crying infants to a disgustingly violent R-rated movie know for sure!
The summer movie season is a go! It's time for action! Time for adventure! Time for incorrect aspect ratio projections of a movie that takes up only two thirds of your giant movie theater screen of which you came to see said movie on. It's time to head back to the moopies and check out the final Marvel movie, Guardians of the Galaxy 3!
Charlie Day from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia wrote, directed, and starred in a movie that just came out that you've never heard about! Is this gigantic flop as bad as its Rotten Tomatoes score would suggest? Also WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET THE RUBIK'S CUBE MOVIE???
Indiana...let it go. We had a lot of dumb technical issues when filming this episode. One of our stupid mics stopped working 2 minutes into our discussion but we didn't discover that until after talking about the stupid Indiana Jones movie for 45 minutes so then we had to start the stupid discussion all over again. And for some reason on the second time we shot it, Rich Evans' microphone made him sound extra echo-y because Rich Evans is a sound anomaly. But you can still understand everything we say as we painstakingly go through this boring movie. So just relax and have fun, everybody. Relax and have fun!!! And Happy Birthday, Grimace!
Happy Barbenheimer everyone! Watch as these two elderly losers stall for half the video before finally discussing what some are calling the best movie of the year: Oppenheimer! In addition to that, Mike and Jay discuss the ongoing writer and actor strikes as well as it's consequences on movies, theaters, streamers, audiences, and most importantly what effect it will have on David Zaslav. Won't someone please think of poor David Zaslav?!
Mike and Jay go down one of the most unexpected rabbit holes of all time! It’s the Kyle Gallner Triple Feature Spectacular! Brought to you by Vudu™ and Loot Crate™ and Quaker Oats™! Mike loves Vudu. It’s an interface his rotting, elderly, dementia-ridden brain can comprehend. It’s where he watches his movies and loves to click on the little pictures and see what other movies people have been in. This time, Mike saw that Jay’s old friend Kyle Gallner has been in 3 movies in the past 6 months or so. Mike watched the three most recent films and got a little something out of each one. He wanted to share them with Jay. And then with you, the internet audience. Are these movies destined to be classics decades from now? Probably not. They are lower budgeted quality independent films that make a heartful attempt at something new. Plus they do not have the words Clown, Shark, or Exorcist in the title. Did billions of people go to see them like the Barbie movie? Or Oppenhomie? Nope.
The power of Christ compels Mike and Jay to see another trash rebootquel cash grab soft-reboot sequel remake. This time, David Gordon Green and Blunhouse have got their dirty, disgusting hands on The Exorcist, one of Jay's favorite movies of all time. Is the movie any good???????? What do you think?????

The holiday season may be sort of over (except for News Years) but the derivative holiday-related shit films keep pooping out of our TVs. Hi, I'm Porky Fartbag and I'm here today to tell you about Mike and Jay (aka redlettermedia) they do a show called Half in the Bag where they talk about movies. On this episode they watched three recent holiday films: It's a Wonderful Knife, There's Something in the Barn, and Thanksgiving. It would have been more appropriate if there was a News Years Eves film in there too, but such as it goes. While a murderous Santa or horror Christmas film in the 1980's would have caused a stir, today it's par for the course. What, with all the filthy p*rn, shameful home renovation shows , trash music, angry political programing, and TLC fatso shows; a killer Santa Claus seems quaint. However, people keep making these movies hoping to shock or catch a view.
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is the newest Ghostbusters movie. It's the sequel to the last Ghostbusters movie, which was a franchise reset from the Ghostbusters movie before that one. Do you...do you remember Ghostbusters? Mike, Jay, and Rich sit in an empty void to discuss this latest Sony product. Do you remember Ghostbusters?
Mike and Jay discuss the new found-footage-ish demonic movie Late Night with the Devil! But more importantly, they break a very important and rare VCR repair tool or something.
