In this episode of Burnt or Buttered, Toast and I talk about Is This Thing On?, a movie that looks like it’s going to be a fun comedy… and then quietly sucker-punches you with something way more honest.
We get into how Bradley Cooper reshaped the tone, why the tight 40mm lens choice makes everything feel uncomfortably real, and how Will Arnett delivers a performance that’s way deeper than people expect from him. We also talk about the stand-up scenes feeling like an open diary instead of punchlines, the subtle ways the divorce plays out without big screaming moments, and the surprising details that make this feel like a lived-in New York story.
This episode contains spoilers.
