Tim and Eric- the art of promotion

http://timanderic.com/movies.html

"Deadpan" does not come close to describing Tim and Eric's approach to irony. With Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim's bold and enthusiastic "tie-in" marketing campaigns, satire becomes a brilliant and nihilistic Andy Kaufman-esque technique of perceived earnest sincerity.

Tim and Eric launch advertising initiatives for campaigns that they have NOTHING to do with. About six months ago, they hyped up the release of the "Shrek III" movie. The…
