Saturday Afternoon Theater: THAT MOVIE SHOW: THE MOVIE, Feature Length for Your Pleasure

Official Synopsis

That Movie Show – The Feature Length Version (1 hour, 45 minutes)
This video collects all 20 episodes of “That Movie Show” which was produced for MTV Networks’ site: NextMovie.com. This is the same re-edited & uncensored version that played on the big screen in Los Angeles on June 7th.

Why We’re Watching: Our affection for Bobby Miller’s off-beat comedy style began in 2009 when he was a part of Indy Mogul. Back then he was running a short film review show called THE BEST SHORT FILMS IN THE WORLD. In case you missed it, here’s where we covered that on our Bits.

Not too long after that, THE REEL GOOD SHOW appeared with the same quirky style. This time the focus was not burgeoning short films. This time Miller was the host of a comedy show that interviewed the short filmmakers in the most offbeat manner possible.It’s like Zach Galifinakis’ BETWEEN TWO FERNS only funny and two years ahead of that Funny or Die darling.

MTV sounded the siren call and beckoned young Bobby Miller to go west and develop web series content for their movie site Next Movie.com. Here THAT MOVIE SHOW was born to interview more filmmaker celebrities and promote upcoming movies in Miller’s own unique style. Sadly the new show was put to rest after two seasons. unsadly, Miller and company re-edited the footage into a feature length and uncensored film.

We’re definitely looking forward to what @BobbyMiller and his new Hollywood peeps fire into the unsuspecting Internets.
