Inevitably, the discussion turns toward a frank assessment of just how likely a <em>Community<\/em> movie really is and Harmon lets some intriguing clues slip:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c\u2026I am, at least once a week, thinking about it, because the gears are turning. There is, like \u2026 a thing is happening. Logistically, the locks are coming away. And the only problems are becoming the creative ones, which is great, because I love those problems. I love having these conversations, and they\u2019re being had.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We\u2019ve heard words like this before, but something tells me this instance might be a little different. Harmon\u2019s obviously been agonizing over this project, which ironically makes me feel better that the final product wouldn\u2019t end up being a cautionary tale. We\u2019ll see what may come of this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-307617 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/danharmon-harmontown-700x330.jpg\" alt=\"Mystery Science Theater 3000 Dan Harmon\" width=\"700\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/danharmon-harmontown.jpg 700w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/danharmon-harmontown-360x170.jpg 360w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/danharmon-harmontown-435x205.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whos_This_For_Anyway\"><\/span>Who\u2019s This For Anyway?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>But in classic Harmon fashion, things start to get very existential the longer the <em>Community<\/em> creator talked about this mythic movie. When asked specifically about what potential issues stand in the way of making it a reality, Harmon answers:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_2 -->\u201cHere\u2019s the biggest philosophical question [for a reunion movie]: Are you supposed to service a mythical new viewer? The obvious, dogmatic, practical, off-the-street answer is like, No, you don\u2019t. It\u2019s fan service. Why would there be a \u2018Community\u2019 movie? Who do you think is going to walk in off the street and buy popcorn and sit and watch a \u2018Community\u2019 movie like that? They deserve to be punished. Why are they doing that?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Personally I\u2019m glad to see this train of thought verbalized, since this has actually been one of my few reservations about seeing a movie get made. During its 110-episode run, <em>Community<\/em> simply never caught on to mainstream viewers in any tangible way. Its recent move to Netflix and Hulu helped turn the cult classic into something more widely accessible, but trying to balance catering to original hardcore fans vs potentially opening things up to a newer audience is a quandary worth wrestling with.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Rick and Morty<\/em>\u00a0co-creator continues, with a rather cogent comparison point:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSaying that that person doesn\u2019t exist is a lot different from asking yourself structurally if you\u2019re supposed to design the movie for them, because there\u2019s a new viewer inside of all of us. If every Marvel movie started with inside references to all 90 other Marvel movies, even if you had seen all of them \u2014 even if on one level you\u2019d be like, \u2018This is the greatest Marvel movie ever because all of the movies are in here\u2019 \u2014 I think that a part of your brain would be going, \u2018Yeah, but it\u2019s kind of not a good movie for this reason. It\u2019s just speaking in gibberish. What does this mean? I exist in that camp like you?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Formalistically, you owe a movie that I think the fans can not only enjoy, but they can stand back and go, You know, the crazy thing about this \u2018Community\u2019 movie is that if you didn\u2019t know there was a show, this is an insanely good movie. There\u2019s a reason to watch it and then definitely watch the series because now you\u2019re like, \u2018Holy crap. I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s arrogance, pretentiousness, responsibility, self-deprecation, torture. I can\u2019t get myself out of that camp.\u2019 \u201c<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_3 --><\/p>\n<p>Whew that\u2019s a lot, but there\u2019s also a lot to love about these quotes. <em>Community<\/em> was always built on an ever-escalating series of in-jokes and running gags, but it\u2019s tricky to translate those particular sensibilities to an actual feature-length film. Making art can\u2019t exist inside a bubble, Harmon seems to be arguing, not when there are so many broader implications that must factor in.<\/p>\n<p>                            <strong>Cool Posts From Around the Web:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>                            <!-- \/post -->\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
