Anyone know anything about this? They showed a couple of scenes on the Kinsey DVD, but I can't find any info on it.

Plot Summary: A sketch comedy feature film written by Robert Siegel and Todd Hanson, long-time editors and writers for The Onion website and publication. "The Untitled Onion Movie" incorporates the comic point of view of The Onion, the world's most popular humor periodical, which provides three million readers each week with a much-needed news-satire fix. In a history spanning 15 years, six popular books, and 10 Webby Awards, The Onion has become internationally famous for its commentary on world events, human behavior, and journalistic convention. Founded in Madison, Wisconsin, in 1988, The Onion has spun off successful print editions in New York City, Chicago, Milwaukee, and Denver, and in 1996 established a dominant presence on the Internet, where it has attracted millions of fans worldwide.

I just saw this the other day and I thought it was fantastic. Some parts are hit or miss, but most of it is brilliant. The Steven Segal "Cockpuncher" movie trailers were hillarious.

The one and only first hand report of this I've heard was from a huge Onion fan. Huge thumbs down. Coming from him, I don't think I'll even bother with it.

this movie was pretty bad, their stuff didnt translate well into movie format, and the jokes where really stupid which is usually not the case.

i did like one joke:
"the geogria flag added a swastika and a middle finger today" :lol:
