... that, unable to film in Italy in 2020, Jeff Baena created Cinema Toast from an idea to re-cut and dub old movies into new stories he had during an online poker game?
ALT1: ... that Jeff Baena had about two days to write an episode of Cinema Toast after the footage he was going to originally use was bought by Amazon Prime Video?
Source review: Lopez 2021 does not mention the name of the movie (Spin Me Round), only referring to a "feature film". You can maybe use this interview as a reference.
Sorry for nitpicking, but calling "Mystery Science Theater 3000" a Spoof could be seen as WP:SYNTH. The source specifies that the scripts for the project couldn't be ironic or mock the process, as Baena didn't want to recreate "Mystery Science Theater 3000." However, it does not explicitly describe the movie as a "spoof".
Suggestion for ALT1 ... that Jeff Baena had about two days to write an episode of Cinema Toast after the footage he was going to originally use was bought by Amazon Prime Video?
"The filmmakers for the project were predominantly Baena's friends", while the source reads: "...with Baena recruiting writers, directors, and actors he knew to build these new stories". Since this specific relationship is not directly stated, using the term "friends" could be considered an inference beyond the provided information.el.ziade (talkallam) 10:06, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
@Elias Ziade: Thanks for the review - don't worry about nitpicking stuff like that, it's appreciated! I think I've addressed everything in this edit. I have taken on your suggestion for ALT1, and think it's so relatively small it shouldn't need further sign-off. Kingsif (talk) 22:53, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
