Det finns få episoder som bättre visar hur genialisk sitcom Community var än de berömda paintball-avsnitten, vilka förblivit fansens favoriter ända sedan dess. Det första var helt briljant och det andra nästan lika bra, men efter det tonades konceptet ner.
Och tydligen verkar det heller inte som att vi ska förvänta oss någon paintball i den kommande filmen. Communitys skapare Dan Harmon förklarar varför i en podcast:
"For instance, we go, 'Do we really think it'd be a good idea to be a paintball episode?' It's one of the first things to rule out because it's the first thing off the top of your head, and that's an issue with the 'Community' movie concept. We did a lot of episodes where you are joyfully locked into a construct that isn't a traditional sitcom narrative, but is rather through the lens of David Fincher or Martin Scorsese. There were a lot of special episodes that were kind of like genre homages. The paintball thing was one of them. We tried to do a bunch more paintballs, and they were all perfectly wonderful things to do, but would anything ever capture the joy of the original paintball episode?"
Vi antar att detta utesluter mer Dungeons and Dragons också, men å andra sidan var oviljan att förlita sig på gamla skämt en av de saker som gjorde Community så bra. Kanske ska vi lita på Harmons instinkter när han skapar den film vi efterfrågat sedan serien slutade 2015?
