Am I the only one that thought this was GREAT??


I see a lot of people complaining about how the movie wasn't like the stuff they did on Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job. Did those people actually watch that show? It was pretty much exactly how I envisioned Tim and Eric taking their Awesome Show to the Big Screen. You had some absurd commercials (Schlaang, Swallow Valley Mall), absurd PSAs (How to Enjoy your Movie), absurd other video bits (Shrim video, Dobis P.R. "Who we Are"), plus the humor throughout the entire movie was just as absurd and ridiculous as any Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job episode. I thought the movie was one of the funniest I've ever seen! There were some slow parts in the middle that weren't that funny, but the funny parts were sooo funny that it made up for it.

No way it could be great without a Spagget cameo.

You are not alone. Saw in the theatres and loved it...there was about twenty people in the cinema and they all lost their *beep* It's a great movie. Surprised by how many people hate these guys. I think they're genius.
And yes, that delivery man who doesn't leave the room is a great scene.

This is the first Tim and Eric thing I ever saw, I watched it alone and didn't know what to think at first. But I showed it to my girlfriend by inviting her with "wanna see something *beep* up?"

We loved it and then we started binging the show which was equally amazing, along with Tom Goes to the Mayor, Check it Out, etc.

It actually got us through a year of our lives where we had little to no internet connection

I would say this is one of my favorite comedies of all time. I still watch it occasionally

I didn't like it. I could barely finish it.

I can understand the average movie-watcher not liking this movie -- after all, they have an incredibly obscure and bizarre style of humor -- but I absolutely love the show. I came into the movie optimistic, but was really let down by it. I just feel like it didn't lend itself well to a long, 90-minute format like this.
