For 13 minutes it appeared Gregg once again poo poo the bed with his PopSecret money. Given the chance to make a movie, he just made it all about himself and his inane knowledge of VHS tapes. Thank god Tim salvaged things and turned it into one of the most thrilling films of the year. Almost too many Jacks for the screen to handle.

Completely forgot that Gregg spent money on this, lollll god

What is with the changed names for real? Is Adult Swim asserting ownership over Decker?

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
I assume it’s to make sure they’re free and clear owning it all. Additionally, JJ may have shifted dimensions when he died or the timeline could have been altered to change the names. Tim really crafted a work full of endless possibilities. Only one thing is for sure, Denecker’s gotta get laid!

It's a man's game, but boys will play

Tim confirmed at one point when they were launching HEI Network that Decker was the one thing that Adult Swim definitely still owned. I doubt Adult Swim is being aggressively lovely about it or anything but I would guess they felt they needed to stay away from any possible infringement, and then they figured out a way to make it make sense in-universe. Like the Tim lost the rights to Decker in one of his many bankruptcies

In my mind, Tim conceived of Denneker as a separate character, but he only knows how to write one thing. I didn't even think of a meta-explanation

Yeah I heard Tim say somewhere that the rights to Decker were going to cost literally millions of dollars and it didn't make sense to buy it.

The breakout star from Deck of Cards, the Queen of Hearts, was also in the seventh oscar special and a 2017 short called Queen of Hearts. Just a little trivia I thought was fun.

the 2 of diamonds was voiced by the dudley moore impersonator from the same special, where gregg is the joker. and after tim takes over directing the dudley moore impersonator abruptly disappears, because tim hated him and kicked him off-set in that special. incredible layers, incredible

On the hei network. Not sure if it’s available for free tho. Most of the stuff they’ve put out in the last year requires the paid membership.

Yeah I'm a happy subscriber. It's worth it just for the Oscar specials imo.

Anyways, this is pretty deep nerd but I'm going to the world premiere of Vera Drew's movie The People's Joker at the Toronto Film Festival next week and I'm pretty excited. I think David Liebe Hart has a big role too.
