it does have that Gus Grissom joke though, which has divided even fans of the film

@JerrySeinfeld I very much enjoyed Unfrosted. I would be pleased if you would consider removing the name of Gus Grissom from the movie. It's not appropriate. Also, FYI - IBM is not responsible for Univac. Of course Chef Boy-are-dee had noting to do with Pop Tarts either. :)

The casting is superb and we need to keep a special eye on Eleanor Sweeney.

assuming that this was the girl who played one of the two kids who appear at various points throughout the film, she was really eerily good

That Kurt Pickard review reminds me of those Walter Monheit blurbs in Spy Magazine back in the day. (In fairness it should be pointed out that the Spy Magazine TV Special in the late 80's was ably hosted by a young Jerry Seinfeld.)

Ha I thought the movie was funny -- Austin Powers-esque zaniness. I have to admit I'm a cereal fanatic, so humour involving Battle Creek, MI, and niacin is up my alley.

Some side bits were amazingly unfunny, but it's hardly the worst thing put out by Netflix this month, let alone decade.

We had a "wellbeing at work" webinar at work today, and I was pleased to see this very famous quote by Jerry Seinfeld appear in one of the slides. (The speaker pronounced his name as "Jerry Seenfelt")

"So how come I feel so tired when I go to the gym? What's that about?"

Unfrosted was very dumb but that felt like it was the point. I laughed quite a bit at at it.

I keep seeing people say that Unfrosted was like one of the ridiculous fictional movies from 30 Rock, which seems fair, only they mean it as a bad thing, imo it was like that in a good way.

To be honest I’ve always felt a little bad for him on that, maybe he’s got a history of being a racist asshole but I don’t think that’s the case, it kinda looks like he had a psychotic breakdown in public. And now it’s the one thing he’s most famous for. Just a total nightmare situation
