      It *was* longer; this was a brief lighting and sound check. Ayoade, known as "The Lugubrious Chestnut" to his peers, held court in that closet for nearly three hours. The extended cut will be released as a special feature on a Criterion DVD of his choosing.

    The Criterion Collection better add Submarine because that film is designed to be released on it! Love Submarine's story, humour, acting, characters, Erik Wilson's beautiful cinematography taking place in Swansea, Wales, the incredibly underrated score by Andrew Hewitt and an iconic soundtrack by Arctic Monkeys Frontman Alex Turner to boot! Timeless, funny, charming, endearing, but, sad and plucks your heart strings throughout! I still haven't seen the IT Crowd and think Richard Ayoade is talented at comedy and most likely the most successful British Comedian film director since Terry Gilliam!

      If Criterion features him on their channel, like Amoeba Records on their ' What's in My Bag' vids, you know they're a true artist.

      Actually, the other four segments featuring Ayoade were worse! This was a composite from the three-hour cut of the final visit.

      Don't believe your own eyes and ears: Ayoade is the *It* guy of 2016; a severely unremarkable figure.
