“Community” fans got their six seasons, but they still want that movie. And series creator Dan Harmon wants it too — there’s just one big “philosophical question” he has to answer, among the logistical barriers to producing a feature-length reunion of the NBC sitcom. (And it’s not, “will Donald Glover do it?”)
The question in question, which Harmon revealed during a Thursday interview on Vulture’s “Good One” podcast: “Are you supposed to service a mythical new viewer?”
“The obvious, dogmatic, practical, off-the-street answer is like, ‘No, you don’t. It’s fan service. Why would there be a ‘Community’ movie? Who do you think is going to walk in off the street and buy popcorn and sit and watch a ‘Community’ movie like that? They deserve to be punished.
