I watched 24 Hour Party People last night, it's a film by Michael Winterbottom about Factory Records in Manchester from the 70s to early 90s. It was really really good, I'm a big fan of Winterbottom's stuff, particularly his collabs with Coogan and Brydon. Well worth watching if you have even a passing interest in the music of that era, or if you liked The Trip.

I’ll never forget the time Jack was playing Pokémon on stream while Rich described how sometimes women have orgasms when they’re raped. The world is a little dimmer without Pre Rec

It has a fun 4th wall breaking feel to it and it doesn't try to be too documentary. I know Steve Coogan is well known in the UK, but I haven't seen any of his other work. He was really good in this, at least.

lobsterminator posted:They didn't even need to ham it up and thank every subscriber. Jack is a simpleton and he assumed it was necessary. If Rich and Jay started a streaming channel where Rich plays a boring game and Jay talks about weird movies it would be a success. If they wanted sub money they could just keep the chat in subscriber only mode without thanking a single one. A HORNY SWEARENGEN posted:Rich and Jay playing Friday the 13th and Jay talking about his favorite times women have been killed was fun. Yeah I could see a scenario where Rich, Mike and Jay could make it work. They could just chat about movies/tv while Rich plays some random game. Some of their best content is their commentary tracks where they just shoot the poo poo for 2 hours. They’re big enough already that they wouldn’t have to scrounge for viewers or tolerate a bunch of stupid personal questions and the inevitable barrage of “what happened to Jessi?”. But after Rich’s experience with PreRec I don’t see it happening. They seem to be pretty set in their ways at this point and enjoy the process of filming and editing, as well as keeping their fans at a distance.

When I saw that I was wondering why Coogan just doing Alan Partridge again until I learned that he partially based Partridge on Tony Wilson.

A Cock and Bull Story, also directed by Winterbottom and starring Coogan and Brydon, is excellent. Same deal with The Trip and its various sequels. I'm Alan Partridge is one of the best sitcoms ever IMO. All the Alan Partridge stuff ranges from good to amazing. Mid-Morning Matters and This Time... are more recent and really good. The audiobooks are also really funny. For more serious stuff, he also co-wrote and stars in Philomena with Stephen Frears, that's excellent.

infernal machines posted:It really helped that Rich completely earnestly loathes RLM fans and the kind of people who participate in live streams. Even if they didn't do all the fan engagement stuff, which they largely didn't, he just would not suffer idiots asking obnoxious questions. The PreRec setup really encouraged the worst type of "notice me senpai" behavior. It's probably for the best, though. Better that they got burned out on streaming years ago instead or jumping onto it now.

The only good thing came out of PreRec was Mike and the gang playing Don't poo poo Your Pants and occasional Jay cameo talking about random movies.

luchajones posted:That Corporate show wasnt too bad. Did it get killed by Covid? I liked Corporate. I think it was getting cancelled anyway. It got a "one more season but this is the last" renewal a long time ago, but the last season might have been shortened by COVID because it was only 6 episodes.

Mordja posted:Oh yeah I finally watched the Deadwood movie and it was very good except that it should have been a three hour epic* instead of a standard-length movie, everything felt very condensed for how many characters it brought back. I was so deflated when I started watching and saw the runtime. Absolutely should've been the length of 3ish episodes instead of the less than 1.5 it was. A bummer Powers Boothe died - he was supposed to play a substantial role.

Rich and Jack can easily rule the twitch chat with an iron fist if they want to. They can auto ban anyone who ask about Jessi and other stupid star war topics. Some streamer do that. The reason they didn't do it was they didn't treat twitch as a different interactive experience. Also RLM's main revenue is doing too well, so Rich was afraid to try different things. Jack wanted to but it was not up to him.

Streaming is easy money when you already have an audience and Jack doesn't get RLM bucks.

Rich and Jack had no chemistry. It's telling that their best streams are the ones where Jay and Mike were there. Even their edited game reviews were boring. Also they loving sucked at videogames. Rich popping off about how he has 1000 hours in Xcom then getting absolutely decimated in the beginning fight of Xcom 2 was one of my favorite moments.

That sounds like the one game stream I'd watch. Link? But really, otherwise, I don't see many people clamoring for old guys from Wisconsin to play Senpai Maker Doku Doku 9 on Twitch. Nobody would watch this long term. They can barely feign interest in Marvel movies, and they have to cut hours of content down to 40 minutes for those discussions. Rich isn't meant for long live video, especially about video games.

I hope he doesn't end up applying to edit pornos again.
