    There are plenty of subs for politics. There can be unexpected things which happen with politicians, but if someone who does not recognise the individuals would not see the twist then the post likely does not belong here.

    There is no need for political debate in comments.

    I definitely thought it was a bit. All I knew going in was the movie was satire of a late night show with a horror twist.

    I know! I kept saying, “All right, movie!” like Peter after about the fifth card. Also, enjoy the movie! I honestly didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. I might actually go watch it now since it’s on my mind (and giggle through that entire opening sequence).

    I remember when it came out, nobody could pronounce the title. I thought it was "sin ah DOH chee." I saw the opening screening at Proctors and before it started someone from the theater stood up and told the audience "since you know Schenectady, I'm sure everyone here already figured out how to say the title." I was pretty embarrassed I hadn't put it together.

    If you want to see something similar, watch the movie Flow (2024). Not only is it a fantastic movie itself, but it quite literally has 2 entire minutes of logos at the start. It's an independent movie, so those making the film worked with a bunch of different companies for financing and for production.

    They even had to fight against the inclusion of stylized opening credits which would have made it even longer.
