  • The obvious example has to be their marathon commentary on The Lord of the Rings films' extended editions. Over twelve hours were spent doing nothing but discussing the films, and nearly everyone who had appeared on the show in years past joined in, along with numerous forum members. Special mentions go to Dorkman, for being the only commentator to remain on mic for the whole thing, and Eddie, for spending most of the day cooking numerous Rings-themed delicacies to keep the commentators fed (and still managing to stay on mic for quite a bit of the trilogy).
  • The above was indisputably topped by the show's 200th-episode celebration: a 24-hour marathon commentary on all eight Harry Potter films. The technical proceedings went off with only a few glitches thanks to Teague and Holden, Eddie kept everyone standing with his awesome cooking, the entire cast of fifteen+ people managed to stay enthusiastic and alert the whole way through, and Dorkman once again proved himself a great host by spearheading the show's development and then staying on mic for all 24 hours. The event ended up raising over $5,000 for charity and gaining the show a lot of exposure to a new audience. It was all closed by this victorious declaration:
    Dorkman: Mischief motherfucking managed.
  • Brian and his friends once made an Apollo 13 parody called "Thanksgiving with the Kranzes", not really expecting it to come to anything. Then Gene Kranz saw it. And emailed it to Jim Lovell. And Tom Hanks. And so it went. Brian's still hoping to get it beamed to the ISS someday.
  • The guys' rewritten premise for Cowboys & Aliens is fucking golden.
  • In the Intermission episode "What Are You Working On?" Trey goes into a long, cringe-inducing story of his being hired as a "consultant" for a low-budget film and basically winding up ghost-directing the whole thing to avoid its wildly inexperienced director's bringing the whole project crashing down. When said director decided to complain about the steps Trey was taking, Trey, knowing that the director needed him far more than he needed the director, had the following to tell him:
    Trey: The problem with this movie is you. The best thing you could do for this project at this point is to stay as far away from it as possible.
