Eric Wareheim: "'Happiness.' I just rewatched that again. That was very inspirational for our work, for me, just seeing how awkward ... family problems ... It was just one of those movies that hit you on all levels. Really, really funny, but really f**ked up. Todd Solondz is one of my favorite directors."
Tim Heidecker: "'Spinal Tap' I could watch a million times. I don't think I ever get tired of that movie. It's so perfect. Every scene is exactly in the place it should be. A lot of asshole qualities come from being stupid. Like that scene when David St. Hubbins is so medicated after Nigel leaves the band. They're trying to get some answer out of him about how he feels about that and he's treating it like he's just another guy that's played in the band. It's so sad!"
Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are the eponymous duo behind the cult Adult Swim series "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" and "Tom Goes to the Mayor." Their hilarious/surreal first feature, "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie," is currently available on iTunes, on demand and in select theaters.
