Anticipation for Wicked Funny 2?

It only just occurred to me how odd it must be for all the comedians and friends of comedians who are in Wicked Funny 2, who have not yet seen the film. I watched it from start to finish last night (taking more notes for tweaks and changes) for probably the 11th time, which of course does not factor in the hundreds or thousands of times I’ve watched smaller sections as I’ve edited the film over the past year. I know the film backwards and forwards, every interview clip, every joke (which are no longer funny to me)…

But I forget nobody else has seen it. You have no idea what the film will be like, all you know is (if you are a comedian featured) what you said on camera, or what little taste you got from the trailer. I like that there is some mystery surrounding the film. Because any magic the film ever held for me was drained away a while ago, replaced with stress, frustration, and, as it gets closer to completion, a wee bit of satisfaction.

I hope the film is not boring (I can’t tell anymore). I don’t think it will be for people who are fans of comedy. I hope you like it. I hope you come to the premiere July 13th.
