watched The Kid Detective based on the latest RLM vid.

it's soooo fukkin good

Yep.

Maybe it's because I hadn't built up any expectations beforehand but I think I liked it more than The Nice Guys and and almost as much as Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Very cool homage to something like Chinatown or The Long Goodbye and the tonal shift for the last act totally works.

Very glad I saw their recommendation because otherwise I would have completely overlooked it.

When they mentioned it was a TIFF premiere I went and watched the YMS review (he reviews every single premiere from TIFF and a few other Canadian festivals each year), expecting him to hate it (I disagree with his opinions on many films but I like listening to him because he backs up his thoughts and makes smart comparisons to other films, usually), but he was actually mildly positive. For YMS and a genre film that's pretty much a glowing review.

(If anyone's interested:)

I think YMS current tastes are for more artsy films than RLM that are a little more mainstream focused at times.

Yup and that's why I love him. I've checked out sooooo much (good!) artsy fartsy stuff I never would have even known about otherwise thanks to him. His "Best movies of <year>" are easily some of the best indie film resources on YouTube IMO.

It's rare but when RLM and YMS overlap, or step a little into each other's territory, it's usually stellar content. (e.g. RLM spotlighting some more non-Hollywood stuff, and YMS loving a genre film.)

Glad he's taking care of himself.

Half in the Bag: Five Nights at Freddy's ripoff movies

Looks like it's on archive.org's video section for watching as well.

I hope Rich is there, even if he is not a fan of the franchise.
