Re: Tell The Truth
Do you watch Parks and Recs? I've heard it's good.

Re: Tell The Truth
I don't just watch it, I adore it. Ahead of Community as my favourite Comedy going today and would likely end up top 3 all time alongside Arrested Development & The Thick Of It by the time it ends barring a severly unlikely dip in form.
Great range of humour, strong and interesting characters, great development and writing, an amazing consistency and sense of continuity with recurring gags and defining moments in the show and each main cast member brings something to the show. Adam Scott is the king of deadpan delivery and sublime facial expressions, Tom Haverford is a great satire of the hipster crowd, Jim O'Heir as Jerry is amazing at being this delicate, helpless buffoon who's somehow hated by everyone, Rob Lowe is literally the best as the positively energetic and hyper head of the department on the verge of a breakdown at any moment, Rashida Jones & Aubrey Plaza are stunning and also hilarious in their respective characters, Ron Swanson is just indescribably great, Chris Pratt manages to play what could be an irritating character and make him into someone you genuinly care for when he has bad luck and Amy Poehler holds the entire thing together as the lead and a superbly written focal point of the show.
The fact the writing and development of Pawnee as this infinitely charming little community also adds to the show's quality. I've said it before but its as close as it gets to prime Simpsons in terms of these wonderful recurring side characters who have gotten enough showcase over the 5 seasons to have an identity and steal any scene they appear in.

Re: Tell The Truth
Can't help but seeing the Alison Brie picture as a clip from a seductive scene in a diner. See, now those two lads have got me hooked on this plan.

Re: Tell The Truth
We're influenced by Tarantino. So expect a scintillating score and a couple of cameos from us both in the film. Destiny is gonna be the waiter in the restaurant and i'mma be in a 3 man group with Tom Haverford & Jean Ralphio as the entertainment alongside Duke Silver. We tried to get Mouse Rat, but the frontman was too busy with his police training to commit to the project.
I wonder how many of the above references will be understood by more than a handful of people.

Re: Tell The Truth
The post was clearer to me than most things in modern day society are.

Re: Tell The Truth
You were apart of that handful of people dear Cody  .
I'll make sure the first screening is at a bar in Glasgow so Craig can be our selected preview viewer. Might give him a Bob Hoskins cameo to sooth his soul.

Re: Tell The Truth
 !
Film won't be complete till Natalie Portman shows up in SOME capacity. I'm totally going to cause creative conflict with this fantasy project.
