I saw it tonight. It was quite good. A few laugh-out-loud moments, though no more than in a typical episode. Is the actor who played the deputy mayor the same guy who plays the Dungeons and Dragons guy on the show?
I might try seeing this on Sunday. I'm very excited about it, after seeing all 11 State people are in it.
That's comedian Patton Oswalt. I saw it last night, I'm not sure if it was the four beers I had before hand and three I had during the movie, but I enjoyed it and laughed hard quite often. Toward the end, looks like they left it open for another one... Scotland Yard. Ah, will the hijinxs ensue.
Dangle (Thomas Lennon) and Travis (Robert Ben Garrant) are two of the most successful comic writers in Hollywood. In addition to The State and Reno 911, they also created and wrote Night at the Museum, the Pacifier, and the (even more) crappy movie Taxi. Garrant directed Herbie Fully Loaded, as well. Their next movie is called Balls of Fury, and it stars George Lopez and Anchorman's Champ (David Koechner) as professional ping pong players caught up in some hijinx with Christopher Walken and Maggie Q.
yeah thats the same guy. if you watch the show a lot you'll notice that they have the same actors playing different characters on the show all the time.
A bit of useless trivia: Thomas Lennon is married to Jenny Robertson, who played the ballpark slut turned deeply religious bride on "Bull Durham."
