yeah i think the original VR broadcast had some limited pan capability but nothing like what i'm seeing on youtube rn. it'll be good to rescreen these eps at any rate.

October 2nd, save the date! The people at Adult Swim have lost their minds and are allowing me to make a 1-hour live special to promote Mister America. We'll be talking On Cinema/Mister America, debuting some new videos, showing tons of fan content, taking Skype calls, etc! The hilarious Phil Braun (@playazball on Twitter) will be joining me in studio as my co-host.I've already contacted several of you about showing some of your great content during the stream and I will definitely be looking for more in the days to come.

was talking w my wife about this last night and we agreed the only logical endpoint for On Cinema universe is for Gregg and Tim to murder each other

Or, alternately, to remain hopelessly intertwined for the rest of their natural lives. Which is, arguably, just a more protracted version of the scenario you posit.

the three stooges impersonations, the audition videos where he just reads the script verbatim including the locations and motivations, the two extremely traumatic near-death sequences in both the fifth and sixth oscar specials

Mentioned in the T&E thread, but for those who didn't make the connection (as it took me way too long to do, myself), Mark was the pie-sitter on Better Call Saul.

it's certainly become clear just how much the office underused him

not to mention he was K-Strass the Yo-Yo guy, which I still think is one of the funniest things to ever happen to local morning news
― frogbs, Friday, 13 September 2019 15:11 (four years ago) link
K-Strass is one of my favorite things ever, complete genius. He had a big part in the What We Do In The Shadows TV series and was pretty funny

maybe force someone to rewatch the whole thing with me
it's only three weeks to wait for the movie

haha I've tried to make a few converts, not sure I've been at all successful. it's something of a hard sell when you tell people they have to start at the beginning and it's super-slow at first.

yeah i showed my gf, and before that my ex, the first few eps. both heidecker fans, not stoked on on cinema
― Seany's too Dyche to mention (jim in vancouver), Friday, 13 September 2019 22:20 (four years ago) link
when you tell people they have to start at the beginning
stop telling them this! they can jump in later when the mythology and interlacing feuds have started to build up, and pick things up from context, and/or go back & fill in once they've got a feel for it.
― now let's play big lunch take little lunch (sic), Friday, 13 September 2019 22:38 (four years ago) link
idk I initially started at season 10 and was like "wtf is this" I had to go back to the beginning
― Οὖτις, Friday, 13 September 2019 22:40 (four years ago) link
I was super late to the game despite being a fan of both dudes. It seemed like too much of an investment back when I didn't know the magic I was denying myself.My brother is also a big T+E head but I haven't sold him on On Cinema yet.

He's even seen all of Decker without realizing all the texture and context he was missing.
― Welcome To My Lifemare (Old Lunch), Friday, 13 September 2019 22:45 (four years ago) link
a good introductory episode of this is when tim vapes and says his thoughts are coming out of his nose
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 13 September 2019 22:54 (four years ago) link
yeah S10 is way too late, I mean before Decker. S3 or S4 have enough of the rivalry and side-characters established to get the feel for it, without the whole universe being so huge as to be completely confusing.
― now let's play big lunch take little lunch (sic), Friday, 13 September 2019 23:22 (four years ago) link
this guy m/l knows what's up:
forks if you were starting at an early point, try dropping in on a S4 or 5 episode, when the Tim vs Gregg tone is better established & there’s loads of backstory, to see if it pings any better with you― quelle sprocket damage (sic), Thursday, July 4, 2019 4:16 AM (two months ago)

you def wanna start 1-2 seasons before "Lucky Season 7" because I think that's where the show goes off the rails for good
― frogbs, Saturday, 14 September 2019 04:10 (four years ago) link
and I mean that in the best possible way, of course
this was me for a couple years, I recently rewatched 'em all and they are so much better once you're familiar with On Cinema. it explains so much - why Kington is the "Master of Codes", why Tim is so zonked out during the Hawaii season, the whole "Gregg Turkington's Decker vs. Dracula" thing, and why the budget is so much higher from "Decker: Unclassified" on. like my main complaint about Decker was "there's a lot of weird random things going on" but it all makes sense if you watch On Cinema
― frogbs, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 16:10 (four years ago) link
Even just those moments when Gregg clearly starts ad-libbing about one of his filmic obsessions and Tim loses his cool just before the scene is abruptly cut in the middle of a word. Or Gregg's reaction when Dr. San shows up.
