On Cinema at the Cinema on ilxor.com

Hearing him talk for an hour about Paul Simon's Surprise is about as mask-off as it gets. Also that Office Hours episode when he had gotten targeted by Q folks.

honestly the standard of expertise is much the same

I'm also excited about vertical movies

The “real” Tim sadly has such corny taste in music.

Tim is a bit over earnest as a musician and music lover, which is an interesting stark contrast against his persona in regards to comedy. I think he's been a little wrapped up in feeling like a Real Indie Rockstar this past year especially, but I don't fault him! Glad he's having so much fun.

crossposting here from bill callahan thread.

As Hadrian said it wasn't that long ago when it was very rare to witness Tim out of (some sort of) character/performance.

I can't even imagine the musical crossover between IRL Gregg & Tim. Gregg is far more open-minded than he gets credit for, but he's long operated in some of the more extreme fringes of music to some of the more commercial (tour manager for Link Wray, Mr. Bungle, Faith No More... & VonLMO lol)

Tim's music influence is dad rock as far as I can tell but he seems to know a lot about top level indie stuff too.
Is that corny in 2020? I don't think so. It is hip to un-ironically like music that was previously firmly cheese & corn. Who doesn't like Elote?

xps

I guess I’m corny for not appreciating dad rock and “top level indie” bores me silly.

can't say i really care about tim's taste in music

his taste in music is a big part of his public persona nowadays. I think his music is fine and I like 70s singer-songwriters but I guess it could irk otherwise

his latest album is pretty good and I don't normally like that sort of music

I guess I’m corny for not appreciating dad rock and “top level indie” bores me silly.

Was commenting more on the consensus these days. I do not care for much dad rock myself.

Everyone may I direct you (like Alfred Hitchcock!) to the launch of this website that will change the way movies and movie information is presented: https://t.co/bcw5c3VVNb

Looks as though the new subscription/platform for On Cinema has been determined, with the Oscar Special slated for April 25th.

subscribed 👍

feel a little wary about giving my financial information to a company run by the character "Tim Heidecker."

lol my thought too. true test of commitment to a bit, will the comedy extend to IRL billing errors

Hopefully Joe Estevez is getting another shot as CFO.

it will be a 24/7 Broadcasting Beohomoth

I signed up for top tier, just had to considering On Cinema is one of the great multi-platform artworks of all time.

video games by matt newman

the sudden flash of LaRue got me

the text scrolling from right to left was probably my favorite part

this is pretty great too, you actually have to refresh to see the time update:

i'm working on an amiga demo (small little art computer/music thing) and that was the punchline of the thing :(

The out-of-synch alternate take running in the background

Also, the VFA Time Converter is a direct hit to my wheelhouse.

Sub-scrubbers

has it been mentioned that the clapperboard "clipart" has the hinge on backwards?

not On Cinema related but this really cracked me up

lol I asked the FB group to drop random OC quotes on my new profile picture just to confuse my friends and family and THEY DELIVERED

lol, your t-shirt is fantastic.

not On Cinema related but this really cracked me up

Wow the end of that bit hit close to home. A certain someone in my family loves to tell stories about how wherever they go, their [mundane reason or "snarky comment"] gets all sorts of disproportionately animated reactions out of other people, like Tim's grocery store cashier in the bit. Sorry, but I've seen you out in public and I know for a fact that you aren't constantly blowing people's minds and/or shocking them with your wit or your t-shirt or whatever it is you claim gets these cartoonish "reactions" all the time. So, Tim nailed it. I mean, that character (standup Tim?) might be my favorite character... he really gets the type of person he is parodying.

might be my favorite of his characters that he does*

It's the most subtle thing ever because he's just being the type of obnoxious douche who actually exists irl and those of us who know his stuff and understand what he's doing are like (nods knowingly + approvingly) while your average joe on the street sees that bit and is just like (exaggeratedly rolls eyes) 'okaaaaaaay?'.

Yeah right down to the impression with the bug eyes and "Ok??" or "Wow!" etc. These other people in their story are always either so impressed or flabbergasted somehow by my notoriously un-edgy family member. It's ironic.

It's a rich comedic thread going back at least as far as Spagett. You just got so spooked! You should've seen your faces!

Exactly. They're experts in parodying that mix of ego delusion/desperation.

lmao the FB group is now full of people confused about whether or not the Our Cinema special is actually airing and what the hell "VFA time" is which is just perfectly in character

what is VFA time from, i don’t remember that
