[up][up]Is this the first time they've done a honest trailer on anime?

Looks like Money Plane is gonna be a Running Gag for Honest Trailers.

I hope they also do a Money Train Honest Trailer and make this joke: "Money Train isn't a great movie but is still better than Money Plane!"

The Honest Trailer this week is...Ted Lasso, you know, the one bright spot in Apple TV's otherwise completely barren lineup, and one of its few shows that isn't a completely original concept (it was based on an NBC Sports ad campaign for Premier League airings).

Honest Game Trailer is...yet another World of Warcraft DLC -

I was wondering how quickly they made an Honest Trailer for Black Widow when I just saw the movie last week in theaters but then I remembered that the movie is also on Disney+.

They spent $30 on this instead of waiting for it to be free on the service. That's commitment.

[up] For content creators, getting a video early is important out of pure profit considerations. That thirty is just a regular business expense.

It's time to get up and promote Warner Media properties, slam, it's Space Jam: A New Legacy!

Honest Game Trailer meanwhile is Zombies Ate My Neighbors, a B-movie spoof for 16 bit systems that was also one of the rather notable projects of Lucasarts before they began to solely focus on that galaxy far, far away.

I wasn't really a big fan of the original Space Jam, but hearing all the changes they made to the sequel is starting to make the movie feel like a personal attack.

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

Before streaming Screen Junkies still had to buy tickets to see a movie (possibly several times) and buy the DVD or Blu-Ray later for the video footage so if anything $30 up front is cheaper.

Yeah, they get to combine the version they watch to make a review with the version they pull footage from to make the Honest Trailer.

That and they’re a big enough thing that they might just get a review copy.

I always heard people who play Zombies Ate My Neighbors when they were kids it was a fun game since I never heard about this game until I watch it on G4.

Then the Honest Trailer revealed it was Nintendo Hard and look up on people who actually finished the game who complained how difficult it is especially since you might run out of ammo or fail to rescue the hostages due to the game sending waves of powerful enemies at you.

No Joe! The Honest Trailer is for the GI Joe two-pack of films, which given Joe's popularity during the Reagan era doesn't translate nearly as well to film as the Robots In Disguise.

Honest Game Trailers meanwhile is about another one of Mario's downtime activities when not jumping all over the place - golf. And he's been doing it since the NES days, so it has that going for it too.

That Mario Golf game sounds like they wanted to make anything but a golf game.

What's next, FIFA 22: Battle Royale?

Yup. The GI Joe Honest Trailer correctly points out the problem I have with the movies especially the sexism (Really? "Don't make me shoot a woman!"? Dude, your part of an elite international special forces group that also includes female commandos. Also Wayans character was a creep for constantly hitting on Scarlett despite the fact the woman herself pointed out she wasn't interested.)

It's too bad the Snake Eyes reboot movie failed in the box office since it might have lead to a crossover with the new rebooted Transformers (which reminds me that Honest Trailer hasn't done one yet for the Bumblebee movie.)

Huh the Snake-Eyes movie bombed? Well damn.

Prolly didn't help that it felt like a generic action-movie. They really gotta give better style to this stuff.

[up][up]I'm guessing they haven't done Bumblebee because Jon Bailey's in it.

Unlikely since they have done Honest Trailers for movies and games that Jon Bailey starred in like XCOM Enemy Unknown.

Time to get honest about Loki (2021).

And the Honest Game is the HD update of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
