Effective comedy often relies on character dynamics where one character is more grounded and relatable while the other is more absurd or eccentric, creating comedic tension through their contrasting personalities; this dynamic, exemplified by the characters Matt Johnson and Jay McCarroll in 'Nirvana the Band, the Show, the Movie,' allows audiences to connect with the grounded character while finding the absurd character's antics funny, making the comedy more effective than having two equally absurd characters.

Couple REACTS to Nirvanna the Band the Show: The Movie for the FIRST TIME!Added:
Hello everyone. My name is Holden Hardman. Thank you so much for joining us again for another video. Today my wife and I are going to be watching Nirvana, the band, the show, the movie.
The reason we're doing this one is because it was selected on Patreon through our Spielberg tier by Louis Leblon. Thank you so much, Louis. I'm really looking forward to checking this one out. I will say I don't know anything about this. I watched a little bit of the trailer going in. I decided to cut myself off about halfway through cuz I figured this might be a fun one to go into blind. I did look up a few reviews and saw that it was mostly positive. People thought that it was a pretty funny movie. So, I'm looking forward to checking this one out. Jen, what are your thoughts going into it?
>> I have never heard of this movie, but when Holden mentioned it to me, I was like, "Oh my gosh, is it about Nirvana, the band?" But I'm a little confused because it's spelled differently, but it does reference a band. So, I really just don't know if it has anything to do with Kurt Cobain's band Nirvana or if it's something completely different. Um, either way, I'm really excited to check it out. I always love checking out movies that I've never heard of, I've never heard other people talk about. Um, so this is going to be one of those. Um, so I'm really really excited to check it out.
>> Before we get into it, we can't forget the comment of the day. Today's comment of the day comes from when we watched Tangled for the first time. This one says, "So, is the comment of the day from Patreon release or something? Why is it always from one month or more ago?" That comment was from one month ago. So, I thought that was pretty funny. So, that's the comment of the day. Thank you so much for that comment of the day. if you want your comment featured in a comment of the day. Leave us a comment down below. We'll check those out. That was just happen stance.
It really kind of depends. I try to keep it somewhat related to the movie or the content, the context of what we're doing. So, you know, that's usually why that's why I won't usually mention something like The Punisher or Daredevil um in a video like this because it's not relevant. But the one month ago thing, I thought was pretty funny. So, if you want your comment, make sure you leave a comment down below. Also, if you want to choose a movie for us to watch of your choosing, go check out Patreon, select the Spielberg tier, and you can select any movie of your choice. Louisis Leblanc actually picked another movie for us to watch after this one. Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. I've actually seen that one. It's really, really funny. It's with John C. Riley. So, make sure you subscribe so you can be notified when we do post that one down the line. But anyway, thank you so much, Louis. We appreciate it. Let's go and get into this one. Nirvana, the band, the show, the movie.
I've been seeing more about Neon. I think they're like a um kind like an A24 situation like independent >> films. So, films.
>> Okay. So, We open up. No, no, no, no. I point and this red light turns on and I and the light boom on my face at the audience like that. We are the man and you are about to be sent to the moon.
>> And then right then break >> then more opening then we keep like playing to the audience.
>> Okay, so here's the plan.
>> Why does a club book a band?
>> They play good music.
>> No.
>> Okay.
[laughter] and we'll have a picture of us on there.
>> You know what? Let's make the flyers mangoes perfect at the river tonight.
>> Jay, I got a feeling things are going to work out okay for us.
[laughter] >> Jay, I figured it out.
>> Oh no.
>> This plan is called the seventh >> stretch >> skydive.
We during a game go up.
>> I don't think you can get up to the very >> jump. [screaming] Whole crowd's going to go insane cuz like what is this terrorist attack?
>> Actually, we're coming in. We're going have to have the peace signs. [laughter] >> How did they do that with making them look >> I think they actually filmed that other part in 2008 because it actually it looked like an older camera too.
>> Ladies and gentlemen, >> you're probably wondering why we skydived here. Sky dove here.
>> Skydive. I'm gonna just amend it. You're probably wondering why we're here.
Because the skydiving is implied.
>> What are you saying to everyone?
>> Except for the blind people.
>> This is actually how my brain kind of works, too, when I'm trying to word things, right?
>> We sky dove on [laughter] the same track.
>> Tell me the plan.
>> Except for blind people.
>> A bolt of lightning in every bottle.
>> We have to account for them.
>> This might be the last bottle that exist. [laughter] >> Ladies and gentlemen, you're probably wondering who we are. We are Nirvana the band. You there in the stands. Do you have a show at the Rivy?
>> Don't you see? It's >> So, we're telling everybody to go to a show that we don't have.
>> If you build it, they will come.
[laughter] >> Are you sure this is going to work?
>> This is going to be the last plan you and I ever have to do. And as far as I'm concerned, we're playing the Rivlly tonight.
[music] >> I love romances.
I'm not familiar with either of these actors.
>> Neither am I. I think they actually had like a season of a show and the show was called Divine the Band. The show.
>> It's like one season. I think maybe that's where that intro came from back in 2008.
>> Oh, that would make sense.
>> Maybe cuz that's what I was saying. I was like that looked like my old like Canon uh Vixia camcorder, you know, at the very beginning.
>> Yeah. I was curious like how did they do that? Like he was way thinner, younger.
I guess they've just been doing this for [laughter] a long time.
>> Take a good look, Jake. This is the last time you're going to see the ribbon as a citizen. We'll play the show. We loading in right there.
>> The girls taking your picture.
>> DO YOU WANT TO BET? THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE your picture. Yes, they will.
>> So, they don't have a show there.
>> No, >> they're just [laughter] going to like show up.
>> Build it and they will come.
>> Are they just buying supplies to skydive? We need something that like that that can cut through.
>> Are they actually messing with real people >> up high? I think they're going to have a safety harness on us or something like that.
>> Got some like impractical jokers going.
>> Yeah.
>> What do you plan to [laughter] do though?
>> So here's So we are going to be up. We need something that can like cut through the rope or the cable.
>> What happens if we're not even allowed in the security?
>> You will be actually >> You have the freedom to do this. I'm a libertarian. You have the [laughter] I'm not feel [laughter] >> Thanks a lot. I've got to jump off it.
>> Welcome to Toronto.
>> Enjoy your trip.
>> Have a good time.
>> Look like Quasimoto.
>> Hi. How you doing? We're just going up the uh >> Oh my goodness.
>> He's okay.
camera.
>> Going the old Holden way.
>> Yeah, this is how I would do it, too. A little bit more of a forgiveness than permission situation. That's exactly what I was thinking, too.
>> Oh my gosh, this is painful.
[laughter] >> I guess I need them.
>> Wow. Really? Okay. They're not going to question them about the large hump on their backs.
>> Are you ready to step up and touch the sky?
>> Oh my goodness.
>> They're wearing suits while doing this, too.
>> That's pretty massive.
Gosh, guys.
>> I was scared when we went up to the lighthouse in Pensacola.
>> Oh my god, guys.
>> Oh my gosh.
>> I feel like I'm appropriately scared of heights, but this is this is something else.
Oh, so they just normally walk like that's what this is.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, I thought that they were going to jump.
>> Well, they are. That's what they're saying. They're going to go up there with their packs on and then jump off.
Then what's the the pliers >> to cut the to cut the rope thing that's holding them there? And I think also to cut off their parachute.
>> They want to cut something that keeps them secured there.
>> No, I think they're just going to unhook and then when they go down in the parachute, they're going to cut the strings off the parachute. I think like when they landed, I think is what they wanted them for. Oh, I guess they're just cutting it off there. Oh my gosh.
So now they can jump. Okay, I guess that's what it was.
>> Oh my gosh.
I don't want >> they are going to get arrested.
>> No, this must be a they must have actually got permission at some point or like I think the initial dive off was not real.
>> Like I can't tell if this is real footage or not.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> Cuz like the fabric on the parachutes look looks a little sketchy. You push me up the tower.
>> Are you crazy? I thought I was going to die.
>> It's like for this, I think they would just have had all this stuff and then walked up to like a firefighter and just been like, "Hey man, I appreciate everything you do." You know, make it look like they saved them.
>> Yeah.
>> You know what? Maybe we still got time for another plan. What's Excuse me. You know what time it is?

>> It's red now. It's right on the street.
>> On the street?
>> Lauren, you ripped the cable out.
>> Oh, no.
>> Matt, we are >> Sorry, >> Sam. Sorry.
>> No.
No. Matt.
[laughter] Ah.
[music] >> [laughter] [gasps] >> Sorry. Sorry.
>> Oh my god.
[laughter] do this.
[laughter] [screaming] >> Do you want to Do you want to help me?
[laughter] >> Yeah. So, I'm trying to get my cable plugged in here. Do you want to hold my walkie-talkie for me for a second?
>> Come on.
>> You press the the return key.
>> Bird, we have a a problem. Uh, but I'm going to fix it.
This is funny to you. [laughter] >> Hypothetically, right? If I wanted to go back two days. What do you mean want to go back? I spilled some wine on my pants. Or maybe I killed someone.
>> Everything's going good back here. You haven't missed much. The waiting for you. Just wondering the ETA on that cable connection.
>> They will get the electricity goes right through my body.
>> Yeah.
>> And I turn into a skeleton.
I figured IT OUT.
>> OKAY, SO we during a game go up the CN Tower.
>> Matt, >> you know, maybe we should go early just in case the weather gets bad and they shut the dome.
>> Yeah, okay, sure. So, we'll go early.
Here's the plan.
>> It's a sliver of glass. It's a Oh, there's a postredit scene playing post credits. So, like the other camera guy or was that him? I couldn't tell.
>> Well, wouldn't that Yeah, that would have been him because there was one on the couch.
>> Just finished watching Nirvana, the band, the show, the movie. Granted, going into this, I had no idea what to expect. Um, since it was selected for the Spielberg tier, I figured it was going to be something funny, but I ended up really enjoying it. I didn't know how it was going to feel right at the very beginning. I was like, I don't know, like seeing the kind of the old camera footage, but seeing the movie progress and getting to know these two characters, I really liked them. I've talked before about like comedy theory and one thing I've talked about is sort of the Abbott and Castello uh dynamic of comedy where you have one character that's a little bit more grounded in reality that the audience can kind of relate to and then the other character I forget I forget his name it's not Jay it's the other one the one with the fedora >> Matt.
>> Matt. Yeah. Who's the comedic um silly one that's so outlandish that needs to play off the reality character which makes it so funny. Like if you have two absurd characters the whole time it can come off as obnoxious. But having that dynamic really is what makes this type of comedy really really land. I really ended up really liking the characters.
There were parts of this that I was like wondering how they actually pulled off because some of it looked like they like filmed real people on the [music] streets, but sometimes they would come back up to them like that girl who was sitting outside the CN Tower. He like, you know, first he like meets her and he I think that she was a not a pl like not a plant but an actual person there. Then there's like another scene where he's going with the wheelbarrow. They could have played both of those off. The only way I could think of it is that maybe they did the wheelbarrow part first and then they just shot it like depending on how they shot stuff. So there's like a lot of technical stuff I'd be really curious about. There were moments in this that like I was really laughing really hard. So I think this was a solid pick. I'm curious about the the show. I saw that it's like back in 2017. Um it's only eight episodes. So I guess this was like a pretty popular or like a cult cult following in Canada enough to warrant a movie several years later.
kind of like how Firefly was everywhere else. But anyway, I'd love to know what you thought of this one, Jen. [music] >> I was actually very surprised cuz I enjoyed it 100%. I adore these [music] two characters so much. They are very different, but their bromance is just off the charts. And I love love love movies that focus on bromances. I don't know why, but they just I feel like it's some of the best comedy out there. And so I really enjoyed it. I love that they referenced the [music] honestly the Orbits drink which I remember I remember drinking the Orbits drinks and the fact that it was such a focus of this movie was hilarious [music] to me. So I love that kind of time capsule scenario and um I also just really love the [music] energy between these two. It also had a touch of kind of what felt like impractical jokers at times, which was really fun because me and Holden are huge Impractical Jokers fans. So, if these some of the people that were featured in the movie were actually [music] actors and not like real people just pulled off the street, they are fantastic actors [music] because I was very convinced that they were um it was a reality show type scenario or [music] hidden camera type scenario, but loved it. I I thought it was just a fun movie. It was hilarious.
In particular, I loved Matt's use of comedy [music] in this movie. I thought that he was great. Very offthe-wall, as Holden kind of touched on, and then Jay was a little more down to earth, I'll say, but they were both like oddballs, which just played out really well for this film. [music] So all in all, I think, you know, it was nothing more than like pair of guys that just really enjoy each other's company and have this like [music] idea and um seeing that kind of play out and how much fun they have with that, how much [music] they appreciate each other at the end. I just loved it all. So it was very heartwarming, very funny. It had a little touch of everything for me. So loved it.
>> What would [music] you rate it?
>> Pretty high up there. I was also not sure in the beginning, but it ended up being a fun ride and I really didn't know in the beginning what direction they were going, but I was pleasantly surprised. So, I'm going to go with a nine.
>> Wow.
>> I'm pretty up there, too. I was pleasantly surprised as well. I I came to really like both of the characters.
There were some of those like outofpocket moment moments like when G shoots the guy in the head. Just was not expecting that. Like I thought, you know, cuz they were teasing like, "Oh, he's going to, you know, pull the gun out, maybe fire it in the car or something, but just like the straight up head shot, it's just like, wait, what the heck?" And then running from the police the rest of like the time that they were in that timeline. So funny.
Comedic gold. So, um, I would rate this one probably an eight. I think a [music] solid eight. Really enjoyed it overall.
But you know what? These are just some of our thoughts. Let us know what you guys think down in the comments below if it's the first time watching for you as well. You can watch the full length reaction over on Patreon if you'd like to do that. Thank you so much, Louis, for suggesting this one. I cannot wait to watch Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.
I think Jen's going to really like that one. Maybe if I could be wrong, it might be a little bit more obnoxious humor than this one is, but we'll see. But for now, that is it everyone. We appreciate you watching. We'll catch you in the next video. Take care.
