Tim's insights regarding Pompeii:

"This is about volcanoes, about Pompeii, and it is a Pompeii movie."

Vancouver live show announced: Oct 6, part of VIFF.

"He said I would have been dead if I had not come in. Now let that sink in."

(sound of fan running)

"...What are the movies this week?"

i'd forgotten that tim's contemplating suicide on the 6th street bridge also made an appearance in in season 8 ep 4

I’m watching the Joe Estevez montage on the 3rd Oscar special and what the fuck is happening

like seriously how is this a real movie

(all the comments are about On Cinema of course)

I have a feeling that the path to building a filmography of 200+ roles entails accepting every acting job you're offered, scouring corkboards outside university film departments, stapling your headshot on telephone poles, etc. And in the process I'm sure you wind up in more than a few O_o productions.

lmao when he lowkey asks Gregg if he's got the Ant-man director's number

I think it all came at me in such a flood that I'm only in retrospect fully appreciating all of the elements of Mindwipe that reflect a four-year-old's understanding of how the world works, e.g. talking underwater, transplanting organs by simply inserting them into someone's body cavity, etc.

Also the offhand joke (in I think Unsealed?) when deceased future Gregg is brought back to life and somehow also restored to what's referred to as his 'normal age' (presumably so he doesn't have to wear old man makeup anymore).

they're coming to my town in october!

haha i missed that bit while having read the first bit of that post

Would you want to see a Nardwuar on Gregg? I'd die if it happened...

One my favorite all time characters in motion pictures isn't a person, or an animal, or a gnome, or even a hobbit; it's a sword — a sword called Excalibur. And if you're an Excalibur head, this movie has got quite a number of scenes with the legendary sword, and that's what makes it such a thrilling movie.

S7E10 when Dr Luther pulls out the flute is probably the funniest moment of this series so far

some of the best bpms i've heard. the bpm settings were just dialed in perfectly. i think they were at 150 or something like that.

i'm still on season 2 btw

i don't think i'm a bingewatcher. more of a binge drinker for sure. i like to take my sweet ass time with comedy on video

in my slow watch world, decker hasn't even started

80s: billy idol
90s: kurt roder

Just realized Gregg's wife (pictured up thread with Rupert Boneham) plays Sally Kellerman's handler in Decker.

Just noticed she's holding a VHS tape

Collect 'em all!

oooohhh

we haven't talked about Tripp Spencer yet

lol @ offhanded gunfire

A while back, I came across a post that pointed out who each of the spectators were for each day of the trial are but I can't remember where it was anymore, I'm guessing reddit but I just looked there again and couldn't find it.

I'd love to see that

Mister America trailer coming Sept 4

look at what the guy brought for them to sign...

On Cinema is canon and everything, but I wonder if you people ("you people") who're about On Cinema are maybe also into the 2 Wet Crew videos that Doug's been making the last few years with Jay Weingarten, Mikey Kampmann, and an assorted cast of regulars from the Mt Washington/Glendale abso-lutely scene, including of course Tim? they're way more surreal (and will use the annoying term Lynchian), but super good.

let me also real quick stan for this Jay Weingarten thing. it is the kind of standup insanity that I believe makes a difference in this world

btw I'm driving to Long Beach to see Neil Hamburger for free at some festival thing in Long Beach so if anyone wants to say hi just say hi

tomorrow.

Its a testament to not only the acting but the directing/editing of this show that you could only cull <4 mins of similar footage from the dozens of hours of Oscar specials:

I choose to believe that the on cinema universe is the real Tim and Greg, and everything else is acting

That would make for an impressively-involved means of covering up one's culpability in the premature demise of 20 19 youths.

I choose to believe that

this is an odd 12 year old relic (pre-"Awesome Show") obvs. outside of the OnCinema universe but featuring T&G in a wildly different dynamic:

DID YOU KNOW...

due to Martin Sheen being unavailable during his recovery for his heart attack and later due to a falling out with Francis Ford-Coppola, the director flew Joe Estevez (uncredited) up to San Francisco to record all the narration in Apocalypse Now.

holy shit @ CGI Tom Cruise Heidecker telling people to not vaccinate their kids

possibly the best moment in the entire series
