I didn't like Napoleon Dynamite. I think Jon Heder...I think he's that guy in the back of class in love with his own cleverness. As far as I am concerned, the webseries is the perfect format for him. That way only people who care about him will see him.
@Bill-Lee: It's not as if anyone forced you to watch Napolean Dynamite, either. Come to think of it, that's pretty much how all movies and TV shows work; only the people that care about it watch it.
Except for Heroes. Somehow that thing keeps chugging away with no one watching it. It truly is a modern marvel.
How dare they mock the green ranger. SIT SIT SEE YAAHHHHHH. Damn, i love miles fisher, if you haven't seen his American psycho video, well you must be living under a rock.
it looks like Atom.com is temporarily down -- but the first episode and gag reel are also up on YouTube. (as the director, can i say it's supercool to be chatted about on io9? i'm totally geeking out...)
Loved it. The music was fuckin hilarious. Ive always wondered about theme tunes from the 80's. Stuff like Thundercats, Galaxy Rangers or Jayce and the Wheeled warriors. Besides Stan (the legend) Bush..who else sings this stuff. I can imagine a Hawkwind wannabe band going into the studio to sing the Thundercats theme whilst thinking...YES were going to make it big time!! Awesome.
@Aidan_: Just got home and finished watching it. Fucking hilarious. I was about 5 years old or so when Might Morphin' Power Rangers first started running on Fox Kids. Gods this brings me back!
@Lassus: Red is played by Miles Fisher, who you may know from his Tom Cruise impression in Superhero Movie. He also does a frighteningly-spot-on impression of Christian Bale ala American Psycho in his own music video for "This Must Be the Place."
@Meredith Woerner: He has released a 4 song EP on his website. [www.milesfisher.com] I really like his cover of This Must Be the Place. (Much of the acting reel is from his video and that is him singing.)
Hmm, Gawker needs a general media blog for music, book, and movie discussion.
