yeah maybe not ideal for Oppenheim that he had his first non-doc movie come out right before so people would be less likely to have his style in mind before YCSE. Only saw Spermworld before YCSE but they're pretty clearly by the same guy in terms of style and vibe.

Continuing on with Lance Oppenheim documentaries with the one that's on Hulu, Spermworld, which I don't think has anything to do with whatever that Cumtown podcast was about.

Before even finding out about the thing where he dropped off a bunch of zyns to a zyn addicted RPat or messaged Nathan Fielder because he saw he only finished 60% of his debut doc, the fact that NYT was one of the production companies for Spermworld and was also featured in his new doc is wild to me

You Can See Everything…phew. A documentary (but actually a meta psychological thriller) that had me gripped for 3 hours. Looked up co-director Lance Oppenheim’s work afterwards and Ren Faire + Spermworld are now on the watchlist

second this, and also recommend his uncomfortable but compassionate documentary “Spermworld”
If you are just discovering Lance Oppenheim’s work, might I recommend SOME KIND OF HEAVEN, his remarkable, uncomfortable documentary about residents of The Villages, FL, which he somehow made as a very young director

ランス・オッペンハイム『Spermworld』観た
傑作
3人の精子提供者と彼らの精子を受け取る女性達を捉えたドキュメンタリー
遺伝的には繋がりを持つ子供の存在で自尊心を満たし、子供を持つ親というステータスを求める大人達
極端な手段でしか他者と繋がりを持てない人の様子は『ルーフマン』を連想した
今作の白眉は彼ら彼女らの行いで一番被害を被るであろう子供の視点が一切代弁されない事だろう(ここに今作がドキュメンタリーである必然性、欺瞞から一歩引く姿勢がある)
大人達の行いが子供へ如何なる影響を与えるか、常に我々は考えなければならない、という当たり前の教訓を改めて認識させられる作品

have finally watched my first Oppenheim—started with Spermworld. Great movie, instantly on board
still haven't gone Oppenheim crazy but it's sure as hell gonna happen very soon!!!
I am about to get so fucking obsessed with a doc director who pointedly as a formal gesture toes the line between reality and unreality making his feature debut with a film about To Catch a Predator. Almost went on a Lance Oppenheim dive a couple years ago but it is really gonna happen now

Primetime Review:
I've seen people online say this movie goes easy on pedophiles, and I think they have it backwards. Primetime is doing two things, and neither of them is excusing anyone. ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2

Robert Pattinson's 2026 has been one long argument that he's the best creep in Hollywood Lance Oppenheim has made a career out of filming people who live inside a fantasy they built for themselves, from the retirees of The Villages in Some Kind of Heaven to the donors of Spermworld.

Together they make a strange little double feature about hapless, power-hungry people who want money and influence and will lie to anyone standing between them and

Nathan Fielder's Theranos doc might be 2026's best film, but it's really co-director Lance Oppenheim (SPERMWORLD, Some Kind of Heaven) that push my hype over the edge. His track record of finding humanity in bizarre subjects is unmatched.

clairement le genre de truc que je déteste, mais je reste curieux de voir "Spermworld" avec son sujet du don "artisanal" de sperme 😅
la BA du docu avec Fielder fait un peur, mais avec lui, et un tel concept, ça peut donner un drôle d'objet au-delà du clinquant d'Oppenheim (on verra, j'ai hâte !)
