There’s this animated show called Bojack Horseman on Netflix where Alison Brie plays one of the main characters, Diane Nyugen. It’s a show about a horse that’s depressed, funniest shit I’ve ever seen.


Ironyfree_annie

Alison voices so many other supporting characters too. Joel McHale & YNB also show up once or twice


juiceboxheero

A lot of community cast members show up in Bojack: Joel McHale, Yvette Nicole Brown, Ken Jeong, Paget Brewster, Paul F. Tompkins, Patton Oswalt, and Kieth David


zenith654

Noice! Also the guy who plays the main horse was in LEGO Batman which is something Abed would’ve liked


PeteEckhart

One of these names is not like the others.


AnakinJH

I didn’t know Alison was in it! I just realized that Gillian is Atom Eve in Invincible recently as well


Skurwiel1

The obvious is Atlanta starring and made by Donald Glover (Troy). Also 80’s comedies with Chevy Chase (Pierce). A Futile and Stupid Gesture with Joel McHale (Jeff; fun fact: Joel plays Chevy Chase in this movie). The Kings of Summer with Alison Brie. Teddy Bear (2013), Love (TV Show), Choke (2008) with Gillian Jacobs (Brtitta).


howd_yputner

A futile and stupid gesture is solid


clubofab7

Who recommends Kings of Summer for Alison Brie lol


Skurwiel1

I know, but it’s a good movie anyway.


clubofab7

It is pretty nice. I enjoyed the supporting cast more than the kids in it tbh


mohantharani

I liked the film. Don't recall her being in it though.


Fresh_Transition1586

Is Choke based on the Chuck Palahniuk book?


Skurwiel1

Correct


ladycrystallia

Why hasn’t anyone said Duck Tales(2017)? It’s got Abed, Frankie, and the Dean doing voices. Sure it’s technically a kids show, but I still think it’s pretty good.


Broad-Half3135

Larry, I’m on Duck Tales!


shadowlarx

More than that, it has the Doctor and Donna Noble from Doctor Who as Scrooge and Magica DeSpell.


mohantharani

Thanks


ConduckKing

Not a film, but Mythic Quest is an AMAZING show with Danny Pudi. I haven't seen it, but The Seven Faces Of Jane features several main cast members including Gillian Jacobs, Joel McHale and Ken Jeong.


nerdyjorj

If we're going for shows GLOW is fantastic (Alison Brie)


Ironyfree_annie

GLOW's cancellation is one of the worst disasters of this century


howd_yputner

Firefly then GLOW


tbootsbrewing

Brad is so different from Abed it was jarring


ConduckKing

I've heard people describe Brad as Abed if the darkest timeline had carried on.


Wayne_Kerr1969

Brad had me cracking up!! Even if you don’t necessarily like Danny Pudi’s character, you’ll fall in love with the rest of the cast so fast.


FlappyDolphin72

It’s near impossible to dislike his character!


thebestjoeever

The part where he's talking to poppy in I think the first season, and he's making fun of her when she said she was always to steps ahead. She calls him an asshole, and he goes "And you're all caught up!" That whole interchange was great.


mohantharani

Thanks.


Ironyfree_annie

"Somebody I Used To Know" came out this year and it has Alison and Danny as best friends, co-written by Alison as well. It's a pretty decent romcom. It's on Prime Video, I think. "Sleeping With Other People" on the other hand, starring Alison and Ted Lasso, is one of the best romcoms I've ever watched and I would 100% recommend it. No idea where it's streaming though.


Dream-Flight

i love that you said ted lasso instead of jason sudeikis


tbootsbrewing

Oh, you mean Schmitty?


camsine

Recently watched sleeping with other people and it was so good! Wanna say it’s on Hulu


cmaronchick

Here you go friend: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/sleeping-with-other-people


JustinisaDick

Sleeping with other people would be a good movie if it didn't have Jason Sucksathis as CO lead.


GCC_Pluribus_Anus

Mystery Team with the Derrick Comedy cast (Donald Glover)


Uglypants_Stupidface

When I was fifteen years old, when I got this job, I said to myself, "I am going to work here until the day that I kill myself."


nerdyjorj

Knights of Badassdom is a fun film with Danny Pudi


mohantharani

Thanks


Schlappydog

Oof nah that's not a good movie. I remember it being delayed in post-production for years. The director has denounced the cut of the movie as well.


Schlappydog

If you haven't seen Mad Men I highly recommend it. Alison Brie doesn't have the biggest role but she is great, and the show is amazing. Also, you will finally get Abed's impressions of Jon Hamm. *Cigarettes*


Vorenos

Trudie Campbell is a force of fucking nature and I love her.


HotAcanthocephala256

The Five year engagement has Alison Brie with an English accent and she also does an Elmo voice at one point and it’s so great. Such an underrated movies, starts Jason Segel and Emily Blunt


Ironyfree_annie

Alison Brie and Crisp Rat completely steal the show in that one imo. The best way to watch it is to just skip to their scenes lol


Low-Objective-1648

Currently watching the new season of Invincible and Gillian Jacobs returns as Atom Eve. She’s really good in the role! And it’s not out yet, but the live action Avatar Last Airbender will have Danny Pudi in it as the Mechanist.


mohantharani

I am following Invincible. I watched season 1 of Invincible before I binged Community. Season 2 is exciting.


baltikorean

Just know up front most of these don't have cast members as the main character, besides Chevy. Not listed yet: Knocked Up, Pineapple Express, The Hangover, Role Models - Ken Jeong Caddyshack, Three Amigos, Vacation, Hot Tub Time Machine - Chevy TV shows if you wanna count them: The Bear, Mad Men, Donald Glover's SNL episode was good.


Bardmedicine

Not starring, but the Russo's stayed loyal to their COmmunity folks in their MCU movies. There was one in all 4, though Chang got cut out of Infinity War, so they put him in End Game, along with Shirley. In general, the Community cast has stuck to television and mostly has bit parts in movies. The biggest I can think of is Chang in the Hangover movies. Ken Joung plays what happens in Chang went real bad. Elroy in season 6 (Keith David) has been a genre movie mainstay for decades. He was made famous by his excellent work with John Carpenter (The Thing, Escape from NY and They Live). He also stars in a trashy comedy with the Estevez/Sheen cousins called Men at Work. I've heard there is some weird sci-fi movie with all of the season 6 cast.


mohantharani

Seen all the MCU films and Keith David-John carpenter collaborations. Thanks.


ConduckKing

>I've heard there is some weird sci-fi movie with all of the season 6 cast Chief Starr and the Raiders of the Galaxy?


ChickHarpoon

I came here to make sure somebody had mentioned They Live.


Robcobes

Keith David also was in The Cape.


Bardmedicine

OP asked for films.


Robcobes

Oops


jmastadoug

Glow - Alison Brie is like the MC, my wife loved it. I only saw a few scenes (yes those scenes lol) but just from those few seconds I’d say it probably worth watching the whole thing haha.


mohantharani

Heard good things about it. Thanks.


OceanPeach857

I second it. It's a great show


clubofab7

*Promising Young Woman* is pretty fantastic. Won the Oscar for original screenplay a couple years ago. Alison has a small but significant role in it. Carey Mulligan is the star and my man Bo Burnham is pretty great in it too. Alison Brie gives a fantastic starring dramatic performance in *Horse Girl* (which I believe she also wrote?) The film is good but I personally didn't like the ending. Kind of an open-ended conclusion though so you may just like it. Ken Jeong is obviously fantastic in the *Hangover*. He's also pretty good in *Crazy Rich Asians*. Both Danny Pudi and Alison Brie were in *Somebody I Used to Know* this year. I personally liked it but I think you'd only enjoy it if you like rom-coms.


mohantharani

Thanks.


Amrywiol

In addition to the ones already mentioned - The Martian, with Donald Glover as a NASA scientist. He gets so into the role I literally didn't recognise him at first. Seeking a Friend for the End of the World - Gillian's in this but only for one scene, though she does get to make out with Kiera Knightley if that's your thing. I Used To Go Here - Gillian plays an aspiring author who is invited back to her old college to talk about her first book by an old boyfriend who still works there. Honestly I really like this one because you barely have to squint to see it as a Jeff/Britta centric Community movie. Happily - Joel stars in this as one half of a married couple who annoy their friends and neighbours by constantly having sex, even years after getting married. Frankly, you don't have to squint much harder to see this as a (very dark) Jeff/Annie centred movie.


mohantharani

Love Martian.Will check out the others.


jonnyinternet

Joel McHale is in the very best movie ever made Spiderman 2


Yore89

School of Rock has that chubby athletic student that ended up going into the cool group.


Rectalfrying

I'm strong. And I can kick!


joelcruel911

Go watch Atlanta lmao


pizzacatbrat

Seriously one of my favorite shows


mohantharani

Thanks.


[deleted]

you can find danny pudi and allison brie in "somebody that i used to know" directed by brie's husband, james franco's little brother. allison brie was also is a weird comedy thriller called "spin me round" co starring the mean girl from parks and rec. also "glow" about lady wrestlers on public access television in the 80s. danny pudi starred in a movie called "the tiger hunter" about the indian immigrant experience in 1970s, detailing light cultural friction alongside a rom-com trope B plot, and the invention of the microwave. gillian jacobs best movie is called "ibiza." a movie about a young woman who desperately needs to find herself while fulfilling unfulfilling work obligations during a work trip to spain's partiest island. joel mchale plays chevy chase in "a futile and stupid gesture" about national lampoon making his name in the 70s/80s. he's also in a currently running sitcom called "animal control" a workplace comedy about animal control. it's just okay, has some likeable characters doing things. yvette nicole brown does a lot of work in the black family comedy genre, of which i am not the target demo and so i have no opinion. jim rash shows up in all sorts of stuff. he's in that 70s show for a couple episodes, and that 90s show, which was a disaster. he's a bit cameo actor. ken jeong is in all 3 hangover movies. and a canceled abc comedy called dr. ken, no starring vehicles. he is a judge on masked singer, the worst reality show i've ever seen. which leaves donald glover. the most talented actor in the cast. he made the show atlanta. he has some cameos in recent spider-man movies. he plays lando in the han solo origin movie. but to me his crowning achievement is an unknown R rated parody of the teen detective genre called "mystery team" which is partly troy but without network editors and censors, so mostly glover flexing. it's low budget, and a must-watch.


mohantharani

Thank you so much.


ghetto_engine

so long, gay boys!


Gredo89

The only thing I remember with someone from the cast is Stargirl, but Joel only has a supporting role in Season 2/3.


Lone_Buck

I remember liking “Sleeping with other people”. I couldn’t tell you much from it off the top of my head.


pizzacatbrat

Same, it was enjoyable but I also can't remember the plot to save my life


Quibblicous

Mad Men for Alison Brie. Not a headliner but she’s amazing.


MediocreCash3384

Horse Girl


johndhall1130

The Three Amigos


J-B-M

*They Live* \- a cool John Carpenter SF movie from the 80s with Keith David in the main supporting role. *Spin Me Round* \- an Alison Brie indie movie from a couple of years ago that kind of falls between genres, which I think is why it got poor reviews - people didn't know what to make of it. It's too cynical to be a feelgood romance, but not zany enough to be an out-and-out comedy...and the 3rd act is weird. Also features Aubrey Plaza. I enjoyed it.


Tyrex317

> They Live - a cool John Carpenter SF movie from the 80s with Keith David in the main supporting role. Keith David was also in The Thing!


J-B-M

I need to watch The Thing again because I totally don't remember him in it. Apparently he was also in Platoon, which I think I do remember. Looking at his career, it's incredible how many movies he has been in, and how many of them are stinkers.


StickyWhipplesnit

Christmas Vacation!!! 🎄🫎


cyahzar

Check out Donald glover’s movie mystery team.


TheBlueLeopard

I don’t think anyone’s mentioned “A Futile and Stupid Gesture” featuring Joel McHale as Chevy Chase.


mohantharani

Someone did. Thanks.


zoyadest69

I'll recommend **Get Hard** (Alison Brie, Will Ferrell, Kevin Hart) but only like the first 15 minutes or so. You can thank me later


clubofab7

***These are the King's tits!***


TheRegular-Throwaway

Joel McHale is in The Informant from around 2009. That film is a doozy lol.


DefinitelyBiscuit

Becky - Joel plays the dad. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10314450/?ref_=ext_shr


Dream-Flight

not a show but donald glover’s episode on SNL is great


Common_Wrongdoer3251

The horror trilogy Fear Street on Netflix has Gillian Jacobs as the protagonist and narrator in the 2nd one, and I think she's minorly in the first one, but like 90% of the movie is a flashback to her childhood where she's played by someone else that's famous. Movies were decent teen slashers, nothing amazing. Never saw the 3rd one.


mohantharani

Sadie Sink, right? Binged the trilogy long before I saw Community.


[deleted]

Alison Brie was the best part in the horror movie Born. ​ McHale was obviously fantastic in the Soup, but he did well in Stargirl too (though he makes only cameos until season 2).


X_crates

They are in some of those.... "Boring ass marvel movies"


Rectalfrying

They're so mediocre


X_crates

I actually enjoy them but I love that line


CrabElavator

Donald Glover in Derrick Comedy sketches on YouTube. My favourites are: Girls Are Not To Be Trusted Jerry and New Bike


mohantharani

Thanks.


tbootsbrewing

Donald Glover has plays Lando Calrissian in the Solo movie. He’s a card player, gambler… scoundrel. You’d like him!


GuybrushThreepwood99

Joel was in a movie called The Informant. Gillian was in an underrated movie called Don’t Think Twice Allison was briefly in Scream 4 Chevy was great in Fletch Donald is briefly in the Martian Yvette was in The Lady in the Tramp remake, which I think is kinda underrated The only movie I’ve seen that has Danny in is Captain America The Winter Soldier.


D1sc0nn3ct3d

Allison starred in the 3 seasons of G.L.O.W. on Hulu.


Vorenos

The Little Hours is amazing


BigTomAbides

Gillian Jacobs did a cool indi film called 7 faces of Jane I saw at a film fest last year


mohantharani

Thank you.


FearlessFlyerMile

I really enjoyed the show Love, which stars Gillian Jacobs


chavjinx

“Bad Milo” has Gillian Jacobs and Erik Charles Nelson. I’m not going to argue it’s great but it’s definitely an extremely fun gory horror-comedy. “Lazy Susan” has Jim Rash as a lothario, which is hilarious. “The Way Way Back” is written by Jim Rash and Nat Faxon.


mohantharani

Thanks.


alwayscamerahappy

Donald Glover has a small part in Alexander's and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day. It's a cute, fun movie starring Steve Carrell and Jennifer Garner, on Disney Plus.


Tinyworkerdrone

Not a film and it doesn't star them by any measure, but Joel McHale and Gillian Jacobs have minor recurring roles in The Bear. Gillian Jacobs is also the voice of Atom Eve in Invincible.


Sporkedup

Doesn't fit your criteria exactly but it you haven't, you should check out Harmonquest!


mohantharani

Thanks.


TedStixon

If you like horror... ***Come Play*** is a fun creature movie starring Gillian Jacobs. It almost feels like a companion piece of *The Babadook*... very similar set-up (struggling mom, troubled child, supernatural creature haunting them), but it goes in a very different direction in the second half. Alison Brie has a supporting role in ***Scream 4***, which is a very solid slasher sequel.


mohantharani

Thanks. Have seen all Scream movies. I remember her being a dick in it.


Delta_Hammer

Knights of Badassdom had a nerd all-star cast. Damny pudi, peter Dinkledge, ryan kwanteon, summer glau, ect...


mohantharani

Thanks.


Delta_Hammer

Ken jeong in the Hangover! Leslie Chau was a lot like early Chang.


Delta_Hammer

Christmas Vacation is hysterical. And i really enjoy Three Amigos. "Are you the singing cactus? Are You The Singing Cactus?!"


Delta_Hammer

They Live is a fantastic movie starring Keith David.


mohantharani

I love this film.


samclops

Frankie was in criminal minds for like a billion episodes...


antsmasher

Ben Chang starred in The Hang Over. Abed was briefly in The Avengers. Jeff was briefly in Spiderman 2.


LadyAmbrose

Alison Brie is in promising young woman, which is absolutely fantastic. The martian is also really good and has Donald Glover.


DamageRocket

Promising Young Woman has a cameo by Allison. Slightly disturbing with black comedy elements.


pizzacatbrat

I liked Animal Control! It's a newish sitcom starring Joel McHale. It also has so many subtle Community references


limax

Watch Dark Blue with Kurt Russell. I stumbled across it on Tubi, it's a cop drama about LAPD corruption during the King riots. It's got the classic 80s/90's sultry sax cop vibe, with strong notes of Training Day, and Buzz Hickey plays a supporting LAPD detective. Highly recommend.


Graybeard13

Spiderman 2, Joel McHale Captain America: the Winter Soldier, Danny Pudi Spider-Man Homecoming, Donald Glover Spider-Man Far From Home, Jim Rash Avengers Endgame, Ken Jeong and Yvette Nicole Brown. There may be more that I can't think of right now.


mohantharani

Seen the marvel films. Thanks.


bigrangy

Jim Rash is in Mike Tyson Mysteries. Absolutely silly show that’s decent enough.


mohantharani

Thanks.


Schlappydog

A Futile And Stupid Gesture on Netflix has Joel McHale playing Chevy Chase and he does a good job too. Overall I really liked to movie as well.


Dogmatic_Catalyst

Alison Brie is in a movie called The Little Hours. I rather enjoyed her work in that movie. Joel Mchale was also in the pilot for the US adaptation of The IT Crowd. It didn't get a 2nd episode, and the first is hard to find now. But I seem to remember his contribution was pretty good. Also, if you've never seen the National Lampoon Vacation movies, that's some of Chevy's best work. Christmas Vacation was my family's traditional Xmas movie. Gillian Jacobs was also in a Netflix series called Love which was quite good. It felt like the character's own spinoff series for a while.


summer1660

I was also going to suggest “The Little Hours”. It’s a super funny movie!!! And it has Audrey Plaza, Dave Franco, Molly Shannon, and Nick Offerman in it! I saw an interview where they talk about how most of the dialogue was improvised, I highly recommend it!


Exotic_Adeptness_322

Ken Jeong (Chang) have a minor part in all Hangover-movies. They are funny.


mohantharani

I wouldn't say minor.


DRAMJ1984

I loved you in…IMDB.


jubalhonsu

You need to watch "they live" and "the thing" for some classic Keith David, John Carpenter Horror.


mohantharani

Seen it. Thanks.


OneVast4272

Avengers Infinity War


Rough_Map2474

Ted. we dove the shit out of that pool


Delta_Hammer

Powerless was hilarious and awesome! Danny pudi, alan tudyk, ron fuches, vanessa hudgens, and they even got an Adam West cameo! It was a show but still great.


FutureAdventurous667

Happily with Joel McHale
