Film Review #26: Between Two Ferns (comedy ... thing)

This is... very nice.  VERY nice.  Basically, a mockery of low-budget talk shows run by Zach Galifianakis.  He takes people, ranging from Obama to Bieber, and "interviews" them-- basically, it runs as a couple-minute slur of ridiculously cold, back-handed insults thrown back and forth, Zach instigating.  I haven't seen a whole lot, but what I have seen, I like.  Obama was bloody hilarious, whatever you think of his policies.  Bieber was a little slow to pick up on what was going on, and a bit slower to come up with any decent responses, and maybe that's my opinion talking, but, hey, TV doesn't lie, right?

...

*sigh*

Well.  Anyway.  Watch it.  It's on Youtube.  Between Two Ferns, with Zach Galifianakis.  If you like dry humor, short videos, low-budget-esquery, jibes sharp enough to shave with, and tropical plants, go on, enjoy.

I'd like to go on a "profound" rant about some aspect of media, but frankly, I'm tired.  I'll do that another time.
