"It's not everyday you get to release the planet's greatest operating system for personal computing...!" This delightfully clever, amusing short film is now out to watch online. Written & directed by Kk Apple, The Launch is a parody of the Microsoft team getting ready to launch Windows 95 at a big tech event in 1995. "When a ruthless tech ubernerd is faced with pushback right before a big launch, he must find a way to hype up the team - and himself - before going onstage." It's inspired by true events and "one very viral Bill Gates video." This film riffs on the whole event by casting a group of young women to perform as kids pretending to be these not-so-confident tech nerds - the Microsoft boys.

National Lampoon, which turns 50 this year, has inked a series deal with Quibi for eight episodes of Let’s Go, Atsuko! A (woke) Japanese Game Show based on an eponymous live show and podcast by comedian and actress Atsuko Okatsuka.
In each episode, two contestants share with host and creator Okatsuka something they love and something they fear, which she uses in comic scenarios to humiliate them and test their “wokeness.”
The project is the latest in a series of steps to aggressively relaunch the iconic brand over the past year under President Evan Shapiro, who said he’s in the process of trying to close a deal with another Ott platform for a second show.
The former executive of IFC, Participant Media and NBCUniversal, and a prolific television producer, is also rolling out Monday a deal with membership platform Patreon, And he said Lampoon will be collaborating on a...
