| dbo:abstract | Red Letter Media (Eigenschreibweise auch RedLetterMedia) ist ein US-amerikanisches Videoproduktionsunternehmen, das verschiedene Webserien produziert, welche sich in unkonventionellen Formaten mit Filmkritik befassen. Thematisiert werden überwiegend Filme aus den Genres Science-Fiction, Fantasy und Horror, wobei sowohl Blockbuster als auch Low-Budget-Produktionen behandelt werden. Red Letter Media wurde 2004 von in Scottsdale gegründet und später nach Wisconsin verlegt. Aufmerksamkeit erlangte das Unternehmen mit ab 2007 auf YouTube veröffentlichten Kritiken von Star-Trek- und Star-Wars-Filmen, die in eine satirische Rahmenhandlung eingebettet waren. Stoklasa analysiert darin als verwahrloster Rentner Harry S. Plinkett die aus seiner Sicht qualitativ minderwertigen neueren Fortsetzungen der genannten Filmreihen und arbeitet strukturelle Gründe für die mindere Qualität dieser Produktionen heraus. In unregelmäßigen Abständen werden weitere Reviews aus dieser Reihe veröffentlicht. Seit 2011 produziert Red Letter Media die Webserie Half in the Bag, in der Filmreviews im Dialog zwischen den Darstellern Mike Stoklasa und Jay Bauman präsentiert werden. Die Rahmenhandlung entwickelt sich um die von den Darstellern verkörperten Mitarbeiter einer Videorekorder-Reparaturfirma, die über Jahre hinweg die Reparatur des VHS-Rekorders des senilen Mr. Plinkett (Rich Evans) hinauszögern. Seit 2013 werden in der Webserie Best of the Worst Low-Budget-Filme vorgestellt und hinsichtlich ihres (in der Regel unfreiwilligen) Unterhaltungswertes bewertet. Dabei wird zugunsten einer detaillierten Vorstellung der Filme auf eine Rahmenhandlung verzichtet. Das Panel besteht neben Mitwirkenden von Red Letter Media oft aus Gästen. So waren unter anderem bereits der Low-Budget-Filmemacher , der Filmregisseur Max Landis, der Komiker Patton Oswalt und der Schauspieler Macaulay Culkin zu Gast. Das Unternehmen hat neben einigen ähnlich aufgebauten weiteren Webserien mit unterschiedlichen Schwerpunkten (z. B. Re:View) mehrere Low-Budget-Spielfilme veröffentlicht, unter anderem (2010) und Space Cop (2016). Red Letter Media ist als Limited Liability Company geführt und hat seinen Sitz in Oak Creek (Wisconsin). (de) Red Letter Media, LLC is an American film and video production company operated by independent filmmakers Mike Stoklasa (formerly of GMP Pictures) and Jay Bauman (formerly of Blanc Screen Cinema). It was formed by Stoklasa in 2004 while he was living in Scottsdale, Arizona, but is now based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (as of 2021). It attracted significant attention in 2009 through Stoklasa's 70-minute video review of the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. The review was posted in seven parts on YouTube, and was presented by his character "Harry S. Plinkett" (often shortened to "Mr. Plinkett"). While Stoklasa had published other video reviews of several Star Trek films before that, his Phantom Menace and subsequent Star Wars prequel reviews were praised for both content and presentation. Numerous other series have been produced by Red Letter Media, including several movie review-based web series (Half in the Bag, Best of the Worst, and re:View), satirical podcasts (The Nerd Crew) and video game-based web series (Game Station 2.0, Previously Recorded). Low budget features produced by and starring Stoklasa and other Red Letter Media members have been largely comedies like Oranges: Revenge of the Eggplant, or horror films such as Feeding Frenzy, The Recovered, and Space Cop. Alongside Stoklasa and Bauman, Red Letter Media also employs Rich Evans, Stoklasa's long-time friend and confidant, as a full-time actor and stagehand for their projects. Stoklasa, Bauman, Evans, and their friends Jack Packard, Josh Davis, and Tim Higgins appear as cast members for the vast majority of their YouTube releases. (en) Red Letter Media (spesso trascritta RedLetterMedia) è una casa di produzione di film/video costituita da registi indipendenti come (in precedenza alla GMP Pictures) e (ex Blanc Screen Cinema). L'azienda venne fondata da Stoklasa nel 2004 a Scottsdale (Arizona), ma attualmente la sede centrale è stata spostata a Milwaukee (Wisconsin). Lo stesso Stoklasa divenne popolare sul web nel 2009, a causa di una lunga recensione-fiume (70 minuti di durata) del film Star Wars: Episodio I - La minaccia fantasma del 1999. La recensione, che stronca il film di George Lucas a più riprese, venne postata su YouTube in sette parti, ed è narrata fuoricampo dalla voce del personaggio fittizio "Harry S. Plinkett". Stoklasa ha prodotto anche altri lavori per la RedLetterMedia, inclusi brevi cortometraggi umoristici e web series (The Grabowskis); svariate serie di recensioni (inclusi i programmi Half in the Bag e Best of the Worst); oltre che video di concerti, matrimoni, ecc. Le produzioni low-budget sono in gran parte horror e commedie, e annoverano titoli quali Feeding Frenzy, The Recovered, e Oranges: Revenge of the Eggplant. Bauman, che ha diretto Stoklasa in molti progetti low-budget, spesso collabora con esso in alcune produzioni. In aggiunta, Stoklasa ha assunto il collega Rich Evans come attore full-time nei titoli della compagnia. (it) Red Letter Media (RedLetterMedia i stiliserad form) är ett filmproduktionsbolag lett av filmskaparna och . Bolaget grundades av Stoklasa 2004. Stoklasa och bolaget blev ursprungligen kända genom en 70 minuter lång recension av långfilmen Star Wars: Episod I – Det mörka hotet. Recensionen publicerades i flera delar på Youtube. Stoklasa spelar i recensionen karaktären "Harry S. Plinkett", en man med påtagliga talsvårigheter och ett mörkt förflutet som inkluderar kidnappning och mord på prostituerade, men som samtidigt framstår som en djupt insatt cineast. Redan tidigare hade Stoklasa använt samma karaktär för att recensera bland annat Star Trek-filmer, men det blev som recensent av The Phantom Menace och dess uppföljare han uppmärksammades. Tillsammans med Jay Bauman har Stoklasa producerat ett antal oberoende kort- och långfilmer, men RedLetterMedia's verksamhet är för närvarande centrerad kring regelbundet publicerade filmrecensioner. Nya biofilmer recenseras av Stoklasa och Bauman i halvtimmeslånga program under titeln "Half in the Bag". "Best of the Worst" är istället en paneldiskussion, där Stoklasa och Bauman efter att ha sett tre eller fler B-filmer tillsammans med en grupp vänner, diskuterar och värderar filmerna. Programmet avslutas ofta med att den film som bedömts vara sämst förstörs på ett våldsamt sätt. (sv) |
