The Onion Movie
« on: June 09, 2008, 12:39:22 AM »
Has anybody seen it? I love The Onion, and have also gotten into the podcast recently. I'm wondering if the DVD is worth dropping $20 on. Please advise.

I thought it was pretty good. Little hit-or-miss, but overall it wins with the funny.

I'd been asking around regarding this and I've heard pretty lukewarm things.  Seems like the general consensus is that if it was any good, it would've been released a few years ago when it was made.  That being said, I'll still probably give it a go on Netflix.

It's a really long version of their normal video podcast.

There isn't much point in dissecting it... it's funny, so what the hell, I don't think you have to justify it's existence (har) beyond that.
