'Tim And Eric's Billion Dollar Movie' - A Billion Laughs For Fans, A Few Dozen For Non [Sundance 2012 Video Blog]
Hi, my name is Germain and I'm a Tim and Eric fan. I've been a fan for about 4 years, which is when I first discovered their Adult Swim show Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job. Their off-the-wall, awkward and weird brand of humor brand is certainly an acquired taste but well worth the trouble.
If you've done the leg work and are a fan of Tim and Eric like I am, Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim's first feature film, Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie is a riot. The duo have successfully adapted their style and humor into feature length with a little help from their friends Zach Galifianakis, Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Robert Loggia, Jeff Goldblum, Will Forte and William Atherton. While it runs a bit too long and can drag at moments, overall, fans are going to have a truly fun experience with the film. Non-fans, on the other hand, might struggle through some of the madness.
After the jump, watch myself and Ethan Anderton from First Showing discuss the film on video!
