The fact no one had a copy of the original movie is crazy

I'm pretty sure Burnie has mentioned having a copy or something like that, but I'm not sure.

He has mentioned it, I think a few of the founders have it. Burnie just said he never wants to release it to the public. I think he feels it doesn’t hold up well.

u/Ccaves0127 5d ago

He's alluded to both there being music rights issues and also wanting to remake it

...okay so does rvb season 1

I'll sign a form to understand it was made in a different time

u/TheCosmicSaudade 5d ago

The reason they can't release it is because it has licensed music in it, one of the songs being "Don't fear the Reaper". And that's pretty much the only reason Burnie has given to not releasing it, which i totally understand

I'd love to see it.

u/DevourIsDead Funhaus 5d ago

I would too, but imo I feel like it might be because Burnie thinks the jokes are “dated” meaning lots of using the R word and other jokes they very much frown on now, but that is just my guess he never really specified publicly.

We watched rvb which has those too. I would feel there should be confidence in his fans to watch it without problems

In the press release announcing his reacquisition of the Rooster Teeth brand, it included references to "a new original audio adventure Again, and an untitled reimagining of Burns' first film The Schedule."

Burnie has said multiple times on Morning Somewhere that there has been a lot of behind the scenes work going on with Rooster Teeth, including the website/app, and he's alluded to some productions in the works but hasn't provided details.

I couldn’t list all of them, but he’s gone into some detail on some projects in the bonus episodes of Morning Somewhere.

u/DesertedPenguin 5d ago

Yeah, I couldn't remember what's been publicly announced and what's been kept for sponsors/patrons, and I always try to respect that boundary for content creators.

Did he change the kitty litter?

u/DrunkenNinja27 5d ago

This is what I came to get an update on.

u/mrshllwlknsn 5d ago

there just has to be something in that movie that aged TERRIBLY. it's the only explanation why we've never seen it.

u/kayknox_ 5d ago

Could also just be that it was a student film and it kinda sucked like most student films do, even ones from well-known and talented people.

Also Joel was a/the main character and didn't seem to exit the company on good terms.

u/bdiddlediddles 5d ago

This is likely it. Roosterteeth fans are devoted but it can't fix a really bad product.

Likely terrible camera and sound recording, bad script which isn't helped by subpar acting.

Even the original RvB is hard to sit through imo

u/HavenChronicles 5d ago

I'm like 90% sure burnie has sad they only have a vhs copy of it left. It might not be in good condition

u/Snck_Pck 5d ago

Can they also just release an audio book or novel about day 5 pls so we can have closure

6

u/Coblish 5d ago

Yes, please. Even just a podcast episode of them telling the general idea of what would happen would be nice.

What?

u/FeelingPrize67 5d ago

You don't remember the story Burnie told of the dude in the background when he noticed the camera was rolling he snuck out of frame like a 1920's cartoon villain

u/Suro-Nieve butts 5d ago

Oh! I remember that now.

u/FeelingPrize67 5d ago

Be sure to remember Honey doesn't spoil

u/TheCosmicSaudade 5d ago

They're working on a movie called Bad Toys, that post has nothing to do with The Schedule

u/NeedAReminder 5d ago

It’s really great knowing that Burnie has a hawk in that pic
