Q: To what extent does someone need to know On Cinema lore to dig into this movie?A: When we started this, we weren’t thinking about a theatrically released movie. It would just be something we put up on the Adult Swim website, as maybe a half hour. But as we were doing it, we realized it was working. It felt right. Our editor gave us a rough, two-hour cut and said “I don’t know, this feels like a movie.”Nathan Fielder [of Nathan for You] looked at it early on and said “guys, this isn’t just for the website. This needs a poster. It needs to get reviewed.” So then we looked to restructure the first half for people who hadn’t watched anything from us.If you watch, say, Making A Murderer or any of the thousand murder documentaries on Netflix, you don’t know everything about these people. A good documentary feeds you the backstory and moves you along. We don’t bombard you with “a film critic who started an EDM festival — “

From a New York Times article interviewing people who dressed up as the Joker at Comic-Con:
Cruz was so set on playing Phoenix's version of the Joker that he bought the movie-specific costume on Amazon just for the occasion."I was the 'Dark Knight' Joker previously," Cruz said. "I’m just a Joker-head. This is one I wanted to take on."

I still miss Tim’s ‘I love this movie!’ from the previous theme song. Simpler times :(Joe on the board, having to take notes and write financial reports, that will not go wrong at all.

the screening here played Dekkar videos & Our Values Are Under Attack and trailers for Oh God! and The Shaggy D.A. beforehand, had a certified popcorn classic on every seat, and gave away a movie hat after a game of Stump The Buff

imo the movie is incredibly awesome if you're an on cinema-head. i went with someone who doesn't know on cinema that well but is a tim heidecker fan and she wasn't quite as enthused as i was but also it must be weird to be in a theater full of people laughing very loudly at in-jokes you haven't heard before
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 11 October 2019 18:30 (four years ago) link
i went with someone new to On Cinema and she loved it, but she likes Tim & Eric and i'd shared a couple episodes with her beforehand that i thought offered a good window into the universe (S4E3 and S6E2)

Would watch when my brother and friend get to town this weekend but they are among the T&E heads who have yet to become On Cinema heads so it seems like they need a proper immersion first. Maybe I can convince them to spend 84 hours binging everything that's happened thus far.

how many times do you get to hear "Empty Bottle" during those 84 hours

tim is on the newest ep of chapo trap house. is in character as "tim heidecker" for the first 10 minutes or so

The Dekkar guys are wise to cover something so closely tied to cinema.
Who was it who said "Reboots are always better"?
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 11 October 2019 19:34 (four years ago) link
yeah, let's imagine they worked it up for the On Cinema Oscar Special, and presented it earnestly to Tim & Gregg at a meeting, only to be let down politely & gently

the footage from the end of The Trial in the movie, with Axiom & Manuel lightly corpsing behind Tim's victory speech, was a sweet reminder that they get at least a little bit of the joke
― now let's play big lunch take little lunch (sic), Friday, 11 October 2019 19:44 (four years ago) link
there are def some moments on the 4th special where the camera cuts to them and they're clearly laughing
― frogbs, Friday, 11 October 2019 19:45 (four years ago) link
I think on either reddit or FB someone asked Tim how he met Axiom and he said "At Guitar Center" haha

and they met manuel because he was already axiom's friend. at the metrograph screening i was at tim went on for a minute about how amazing manuel is
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 11 October 2019 20:15 (four years ago) link
(iirc they actually found axiom by looking through imdb headshots)
do they ever explain why Axiom & Manuel have such dedicated loyalty to Tim? he's not jerks to *them*, but he does hog the spotlight & stole Axiom's song.
― frogbs, Friday, 11 October 2019 20:19 (four years ago) link
tim actually explained that! whenever tim (the character) is not paying axiom and manuel, they disappear from the show
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 11 October 2019 20:20 (four years ago) link
they mention in the trial that they get a 'stipend' which does explain it but Axiom donating his entire hand is uh
