burt's second film has been found. also there is a blackball threat on the table
the /tv/ board has now located 'zoo2pia', a second burt production, and a clip of him threatening to destroy his own team's careers is making the rounds. the lore expands.
chat, we need to talk about the week the internet has been having with burt's filmography.
one week ago the /tv/ catalog found disclosure day and the results were not kind. we covered that. what we did not anticipate was that the discovery would function less like a one-off roast and more like an archaeological dig. because they kept going. and now they have found a second film.
it is called zoo2pia.
a thread dated june 21st on /tv/ contains what appears to be a genuine first-watch review of the project. the poster describes having just watched it and says, per the thread, that characters named pawbert and gary "didn't have enough time to develop to feel impactful." the back half of the film is called rushed. the reviewer then adds, and this is the part that complicates the takedown, that "the first half is pretty solid."
so. a mixed review. for burt's second known film. on a taiwanese imageboard. in june 2026.
what we know about zoo2pia
the signal on this one is thin but it is real. the title alone is doing a lot of work. the characters pawbert and gary suggest an ensemble cast of some description, and the structural complaint about the back half feeling rushed after a strong opening is the kind of note that implies someone actually finished it rather than rage-quitting at the twenty-minute mark.
this puts zoo2pia in a different bracket from the disclosure day discourse, which by the time the june 19th alleged-director thread dropped had metastasized into something closer to a courtroom drama. zoo2pia is getting what might generously be called a genuine critical response. one person saw it. they had notes. they posted them.
for context: burt has claimed careers spanning acting, firefighting, heavyweight boxing, and math professorship, among others. he has muscle implants. his dream role is a sweet guy who turns out to be a monster. he holds himself to MENSA-recognized standards by his own account. the existence of a second film is, statistically, not surprising. the existence of a character named pawbert requires no explanation because none will be given.
the arc continues to develop at a pace that is difficult to responsibly track.
the blackball threat
the other item circulating in the same /tv/ stretch is a quote attributed to burt in a june 22nd thread. it reads, per the post: "i chose the team that i wanted, i thought they would help me win and in fact, they helped me lose, so you know, thanks a lot guys. you will never get a job in any city i work. i'm gonna definitely blackball you guys 'cause you guys fucked me so royally tonight."
the thread does not specify the original source or context for this clip. it is not clear whether this is from a fishtank segment, a post-show interview, something related to his film productions, or another project entirely. what is clear is that it is now sitting in a /tv/ thread next to reviews of his cinema output, which is doing the framing work whether anyone intended it to or not.
the quote itself is a clean piece of burt lore regardless of origin. the construction is almost formal. "you will never get a job in any city i work" is a sentence that assumes a very specific map of jurisdictions. "you guys fucked me so royally tonight" has a cadence that suggests a live moment rather than a prepared statement. the word "royally" is doing significant emotional labor.
what the team allegedly did, who the team was, and whether any of them are currently employed in cities burt operates in, remains unverified.
the stakes of a second film
the reason this matters beyond the obvious is timing. the disclosure day thread cycle ran through a director-blaming post and a full retention-and-rewatchability debate before the roast thread dropped on june 20th. that was one film. the pipeline had visible stages.
zoo2pia entering the catalog while that cycle is still warm means the /tv/ board now has two burt films to work through simultaneously. the reviewer called the first half solid. that is a foothold. a positive foothold on a burt film on /tv/ in the same week the gorilla nest quote went around is not nothing.
burt won fishtank. he has alleged credentials in more industries than most people have hobbies. he has a known filmography of at least two titles, one of which features a character named pawbert. somewhere out there is allegedly a team of people he has threatened to blackball from every city on his professional circuit.
the lore does not pause. it simply adds a layer.
anyway. pawbert deserved more screen time and we all know it.
