I guess kind of paired to Be Kind Rewind era. Though I wish it was better that it really is.

Which movie do you wish were better, Nacho Libre or Be Kind Rewind? Or both? I have very vague recollections of Be Kind Rewind, but, if that's the one you're referring to, I'd tend to agree. I seem to recall a lot of the marketing was centered around the main duo's attempts to "Swede" movies with no production budget. As I recall, that's certainly present in the movie, but it's not really the focus to the extent I wish it were.

Nacho Libre I haven't seen at all, so I'll take y'all's word on that front.

Yep, the second one. The concept was fun, but I think they tried to bundle a series of ideas that made the whole experience a disjointed and half baken film.
