As a pretty big fan of RedLetterMedia, I've been looking forward to this for a while.

There wasn't a single even slightly amusing second in that whole trailer, why exactly are you guys looking forward to this?

Because I don't hate fun.

This looks like an attempt to make something so bad it's good, except it's even worse than that and just plain bad.
Also great evidence for the theory that being a good critic doesn't mean you'll be a good creator. I like RLM well enough but this is just terrible looking on every level.

Also, I enjoyed Feeding Frenzy quite a bit, despite the star (Ron Lipski) having the charisma of a boiled turnip. Rich and Mike starring in this one themselves guarantees it'll be better.

This reminds me of the pizza roll parts of the Pinkett reviews - and I really didn't think those were all that funny.

Red Letter Media have been losing their edge for a while now and Space Cop seems to follow that trend (though I still enjoy their Best/Wheel of the Worst shows alot).

The goofy "host segments" during Half in the Bag (and BotW to some extent) where they add completely unnecessary depth to their bizarre little fictional universe never fail to delight me. I'm hoping we'll see a little bit of crossover in the movie, the way that Feeding Frenzy had (fake) Plinkett as one of the main characters.

I have a feeling the Kick starter trailer for Kung Fury will have provided me with more laughs than this entire movie will. That looked terrible.

I just got my copy of this in the mail yesterday. I haven't watched it yet and I probably will not get a chance until next week. I'll report back after I've seen it.

Can't be many good jokes if a guy turning around and walking into a door is one they're going to put in the trailer.

Watched it last night. Not my favorite thing RLM has done, but it was definitely more entertaining than I Am Legend.

It was a little overly self-referential, I think. It was clearly made for RLM fans and I don't see much appeal to other audiences. I mean, granted, that's probably who is going to watch it, but for my wife, for example, I had to explain things a little too often (why is this stunt double so obviously not actually the same person playing Space Cop?)
Still, enjoyed it well enough, and I'll watch it again with commentary at some point.

I enjoyed it much more with the commentary. Not because it was super amazing stuff, more that I appreciated the work and care they put into it better. I agree wholeheartedly that it is mainly for RLM fans. Most of the smiles and laughs it got out of me were from noticing all the references.
All the deliberately bad/cheap/awkward stuff aside, I was impressed at the production values. This wasn't a good movie, or a good bad movie, but it was well made for what it was. If it helped them fund more episodes of Best of the Worst, then I am happy with my purchase.
