Get your rest. I have a feeling there are background check systems you can use if you're not in the US, but they would just be the sketchiest sites ever. Maybe there's some other trick I could use, like tricking Netflix to think you're in America.

So I checked the IMBd Talking About the Weather page for the millionth time, searching for clues that we might have missed, and guess what? There was one more piece of the puzzle we didn't see, one more member of the crew: Lydia Lo, who was in charge of the sound department. Just as pretty much everyone else involved in this (besides Joan Jett of course), we know nothing about her. Her IMBd page is empty, credited only for Talking About the Weather, and google doesn't match her name either, just like with Olafsson. So yeah, we have one more member of the crew who only raises more questions than answers... yay...

Besides the new character entering the show (Lydia Lo), I also found another proof that Talking About the Weather might have been seen by a human being. I stumbled with this article called "Party Monsters and Misfits", It's about some dude talking about his life in San Francisco in the early.to-mid 90's, he talks about drugs and music and what not, but he made a short list of "acknowledgments" at the end, and Talking About the Weather is among them. There's also a extremely weird and kinda creepy video called Monsters, Freaks & Creeps which only shows random music and shows random images of... I don't even know. It shows a bunch of distorted clips and pictures of people, if I had to guess I'd say that this is some kind of compilation of the things he listed earlier, so there might be a picture or clip from Talking About the Weather, but this is a weird ass video, your guess is as good as mine

Found a website which supposedly has the movie to watch online, bus every time I click the "Play Movie" button it just keeps re-opening the same website over and over, also it says that the movie is from october 1995, and it says its duration is 0 minutes so... yeah, I'm really afraid that it might download a virus or something to my computer, so if you guys wanna check it by yourselves, be my guests
Putlocker? My cousin used that to watch Zootopia and other movies, and he tells me it's not a virus, I still think it is though.
Yeah like I said on a previous post I have a little bit of paranoia and OCD so I don't trust pretty much anything, with that said, I also used Putlocker a lot back in the day when downloads weren't as much of a pain as they're now, and it's an ok service, but this specific website acts really sketchy, not to mention that I don't even see a Putlocker logo anywhere

As far as I know, Putlocker files can't contain viruses, but the ads sure can. I'll take a look.
Fun fact: What do all the people who worked on Talking About the Weather have in common. None of them are in the movie industry. I think this may have been a one-off thing for everyone involved.

Well Joan Jett appeared in several movies, Nancy Kates has been pretty succesful and David E.Johnston worked on a couple more of shorts, but I think you're right with the rest of them, as if this was some kind of weird college experiment in which Joan Jett was dragged into somehow, and afterwards everyone kept going with their lives and nobody ever talked about it again

Guys I found something big:
I checked the YouTube channel where that weird video was uploaded. It has 95 suscribers and last video was uploaded 5 months ago, so it could probably still be active, also, every other video uploaded seems to be the same kind: some weird, creepy, oddly edited video with some dubstep music or whatever, they have weird titles too like "I Have Cancer So The Hell What?", "Bullies Are Fugly", and "Everybody Hates a Tweaker", just to mention a few. Also here's something interesting: in the Monsters, Freaks & Creeps video (which, by the way, is the most recent one on the channel), there's a part on the description which says:
"Talking About the Weather” (film), featuring Rik, Carlo and the legendary Joan Jett Blakk (Carl Forest Sandler, 1994)
Carlo is probably Sandler but... Joan Jett "Blakk"? Well guess what? I googled her and she... exist...? Apparently that's the artistic name of some performer called Terence Smith
Also, I figured that this "Rik" person is Olafsson (his first name is Rikaard) and the channel's name is "Rik is Major Drama". Several videos mention this Rik person, and they do in such a normal, casual way that it makes me think that this dude knows "Rik", Also, according to the uploader, there's this "Joan Jett Blakk"woman, so could it be that Joan Jett Blakk is being confused with the famous rockstar Joan Jett?

I got the movie to work by clicking on the link to "stream now." I wasn't able to watch much before it told me I had to create an account, but the little I did see was the Universal Pictures logo. Here is the movie link, although visiting it directly appears to redirect to nonsense: content1req.com/?rzi=1154054&rsz=1154054 Click "stream now" on the link posted before to get to the page. The Universal Pictures ident that I saw can be watched here: youtu.be/KpNkgRv_8XE
If this version of the logo was not used in 1994, then this would not be Talking About the Weather. If it is, however, then we might have a bigger lead.
After doing some research on various versions of the Universal Pictures ident, it seems that the version used here was not used until 1997. The previous version was similar but did not have the continents glow.

So it wasn't our movie huh? Well not surprised here, actually the moment I read abut the Universal logo I knew it wasn't. I'll take a look at RIMD's twitter

I checked that Twitter, and altough that guy kinda freaks me out I'll try to talk to him, he seems to know a little too much about the movie to ignore it
The two guys at the start of the Monsters, Freaks, and Creeps video appear to be the same guys in the Film Arts '94 image. More footage of them pops up in other parts of the video. This may mean we have footage of the film!
Tweeted to Rik. Now quite nervous.
I find Rik a lot less creepy than you do. Is his stuff weird? Yes. But I've seen far worse.

I also tweeted him so if he responds to you report it here right away, so we won't be both bothering him. I also kinda recognized the dudes but I thought it was my imagination so I didn't sweat it, not ot mention that I was looking for Joan Jett haha. It seems we're getting somewhere here!
