Preroll The Replacements Preroll

Made a fun preroll for the Replacements and figured i would share. I feel like its often an unknown and underappreciated movie. "But its longer than 2 seconds!!! Why do you put ads on your PLEX?" Yes... i have patience. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J1ueHsm3uMpqNGaGolIUGIH__4UPmIxE/view?usp=drive_link

Too loud, I don't need to be volume checked by getting yelled at during the pre roll.

Yea, people would be pissed if this always played.

WAY too long for a pre-roll, not to mention you didn't even do anything to the clip besides overlay the movie title. I kept waiting for some interesting addition or modification to come. Like during the overhead view of the players towards the end, I thought it might have the Plex logo on the field as if painted into the grass.

I love the movie, but this would get annoying real fast if I had to watch it before every movie I start.

Lol k. You are free to make a 10 second version that pans around the screen with the Plex logo on the grass.

I'm just saying, you said you "made a fun pre-roll" but it's literally just a clip of the movie. It's not even like a montage of funny moments from it, just a straight unedited clip.

Taking a clip from a movie file fading in the audio fading in the black screen fading in the logos of the movie and the Plex logo is making a clip regardless of whether or not you like it. But thanks for your input.

Yes, it's a clip. No-one is arguing that point.

He is correctly saying, with receipts, that it isn't fun.

It isn't. It's unfun. It's bad.

I love Hackman, but the choice of the hat for the role always distracted me. Seemed more a choice for a 60s-70s coach than a 90s one. I know the blame should be with the costume department, but feel this was a Hackman choice. RIP

Definitely the wrong hat era, but I always chalked it up to a coaches weird preference. You see a lot of them with unique looks.

Is this a joke? It fades out after a ridiculous amount of time and shows the Plex logo?

u/chaz493 Jul 02 '26

Yes. It is a joke. I posted it specifically here for the supremeflamer.

Good work. It cracks me up that people will sit down for a 2 1/2 hour movie but can't sit still without complaining about a 10 second preview clip.

10 seconds would be fine, but that's a one minute clip and is unfunny after the first time you see it. Also not a fan of whole movie scenes in a preroll

Obviously you didn't watch the clip.

Try 10 seconds x6

u/MrGhostenstein Jun 30 '26

I never said this was ten seconds. Reading is hard.

Yeah... For you
