Okay, I'll admit up front that I'll focus on some weird things... That being said, I am always fascinated when they put movie posters on a set, particularly because they usually pick stuff with no actors' likenesses to avoid clearance issues. In this week's "Community," in Abed's dorm room I noticed the great "Back to the Future Part II" teaser (just the car), "Short Circuit 2" (just the robot) and most amusingly the misbegotten Jeff Goldblum/Cyndi Lauper vehicle "Vibes" (just the title). Sneakily, they showed a "Back to the Future" one-sheet on the back of the door, but only the title was visible, cropping out Michael J. Fox. In every other shot, the door was open so you couldn't see the poster. There were two posters I could not figure out what they were, however. One was above the bunk beds, where they showed only the bottom, and it had a huge credit block in grey on black. The other was right above the couch that had a lot of stuff on it. I actually saw people on that one, so I wondered if it might have been made up by the show staff. The other clue to what they might be is that only posters from the show's co-producing studios (Sony and Universal) are represented.

Community colleges have dorms?

I guess imdb doesn't allow hot-linking to images.
Here's link to the
imdb site.

I only see "Vibes" above the bed. When Abed jumps in, that appears to be the only one present. When Britta speaks to Jeff later, the bottom of the same poster can be seen to her right.

I guess I tricked myself into thinking they didn't show Michael J. Fox. Interesting that they did, considering the rest of the posters fit within the idea of not showing likenesses.
"It Came From Beneath the Sea" is an interesting poster but not a movie I was familiar with. It seems out of place with all the other posters being from the 80s. And a "duh" moment on the "Vibes" poster. I should have realized the poster with all the credits on the bottom was that one. Side note: I also find it amusing that someone has decided to label "Vibes" a
"huge critical and commercial success" on Wikipedia.

I actually saw Vibes at the movie theater. I don't even remember anything about the movie anymore except that it was really terrible.

Yup. That's it. After this most recent episode it is now my favorite comedy show on TV. I have laughed more with this show than I have any other sitcom in a very long time.
The Human Being mascot with pom-poms was hilarious! And the wheelchair guy making his final (slow-mo) rebuttal had me on the floor.

The "Somewhere Out There" musical montage was great.
