On Cinema at the Cinema on ilxor.com

not sure how they're gonna handle it this year with Tim & Eric on tour

i really hope they do it bc it's the only reason for oscar to exist

Got the book as an xmas gift. In case it wasn't clear (and it wasn't to me until I actually flipped through the thing) it's basically the entire On Cinema saga in print form. For those interested.

Any picks for Oscar this year? I’d say Tolkien except that it didn’t include nearly as many appearances by the hobbit gang as I expected. Only solid pick I can think of is Rambo: Last Blood

xps. they don't have a show that day, they'll be in the US, and they had the telethon already. I'm sure it's going to happen

yessss

I didn’t think they could top the 2018 Oscar Special but the 2019 one was even more incredible so I’m really looking forward to this

2019 was genuinely unhinged. Not enough props paid to Heidecker's chops, as he seemed like he might've legitimately tipped over the edge.

so did Gregg tbqh!

Walter Brennan stars in this...really quite a career, sort of the Joe Estevez of the 1930s...his character, coincidentally, named Kingman

Forgive the thread spam, but I wanted to note that this show's 2019 season is nominated in the 2019 ILX TV poll:

ILX's Best Television of 2019 Poll / VOTING AND CAMPAIGNING THREAD / Voting Ends January 31

If you like this show and you'd like to see it have a good showing in the poll (running in February) all you need to do is submit a ballot including it and your other favorites (4 minimum, 25 maximum, organized by your favorite to least favorite) to forksclovetofu at gmail by end of day today. It'll take five minutes; get to it!

I was worried they might not do the oscar special this year due to tim being on tour, but i guess it's happening

y'all know that as little as 2 years ago this exact same IRL logistical scenario has happened before, and it resulted in some of the most painfully awkward and insane performances in the series to date?

sorry, that was 3 years ago.

The sleeper hit of the saga right there

Tim confirmed on Twitter that he's actually gonna be in this one

the Our Cinema special had some really funny bits but jfc I would not watch that again

tim's phone calls on the our cinema special were so good

Axiom calling Gregg worried that Tim had killed himself and Gregg asking if he had any picks for best actor is definitely one of my favorite parts of the whole series

guys, I think I might be coming down with a touch of Oscar Fever

Pouring some bub-lehh rn tbh

its Christmas time in tinsel town

countdown to Tim drinking champagne out of, and then smashing, the promotional Arthur 2 tumbler (a type of glass)

ha

will toni save them from carbon monoxide poisoning

fuck

Mark imposter!

Looks like they’re all truly overcome with Oscar fever

nooooooooooooooooooo

rough night

Holy shit.

it's been a good run

the joker strikes again

Tough break for Dudley Moore

lol I missed the first half of this and tuned in just as everyone was passing out

somebody's going to end up in court again, right? maybe w Greg as co-defendent

Greg's turn to be convicted of murder via negligence

Gregg will pay. He is in big trouble . I am alive

i made the mistake of watching the actual oscar last night so: when will this be streaming somewhere help my family is dying

Axiom arriving was such a perfect callback, I spent 15minutes fully convinced this was how it all ended.

My prediction is that Greg will be arrested for murder with much grandstanding and public moralizing by Tim, but DA Rosetti the Rat will drop charges or engineer an acquittal as a way of getting back at Tim

I really don't see how they do another full trial

I've just finished Mister America and am only five episodes into season 11, so apologies if this is addressed later in the season or the special: do you think are we meant to take at face value Toni's explanation that it was her own decision to acquit Tim? I always assumed he paid a juror off (presumably with Delgado funds or a job offer, hence campaign manager). OTOH, she seems like a Trump voter so could see her genuinely responding to his insanity.

my feeling is that she decided to acquit him and only after the trial did they hook up but i don't think it's clear
