CRAVE

Holy crap this is well done. I’m completely amazed by peeps that can pull these things together. Best part… “Ohhhh dude, this night shift sucks. Like, sometimes I just honestly want to die” Pew! Pew! Even the sound effects are awesome.. enjoy.

Taking on a significantly more ambitions video approach, OK GO has a new video featuring a Rube Goldberg on steroids. This is definitely worth watching a couple times and I can only imagine that it took several weeks of planning and a lot of late night stoned adventures to scavenge for parts to put this thing together… totally nuts.

Not only is Frankenstein alive and well… he apparently has a wonderful singing voice. Special thanks to Thomas Lennon’s twitter on this one.. prepare to be afraid. Very afraid. (BTW – Anyone know what he is saying or what this show is about? Nada on Youtube)

Update: Found one more… Good stuff.

Ok… so everyone and their brother’s monkey has seen Jenna Haze naked. She’s a porn star after all. But have you ever seen Jenna Haze just hanging out at the beach in a bikini? huh? have you? Ha! I didn’t think so. Actually, I just find it amusing that porn stars actually have real lives outside of their “profession”. They shop for groceries, pick up dry cleaning and hang out on the beach in Hawaii while smoking LOTS of weed (scouts honor.. I follow her twitter, trust me) just like the rest of us. Suddenly, I’m really depressed.

I don’t really play online games like World of Warcraft. I’m usually too busy getting loaded at my local watering hole and chasing skirts to waste my time online like that. But this guy.. on yeah.. he loves himself some WOW. Loves it.. or rather.. maybe he hates it but I think that’s because he plays it too much. If you look closely, I think has a full slice of pizza in breast pocket.

There’s been a lot of people ragging on Oliver Stone’s Wall Street sequel, Money Never Sleeps. It may be the fact that he cast Shia I-play-the-same-character-in-every-movie-I-star-in LeBeouf or the fact that the original Wall Street was just so damn good that sequel seemed wholly and completely unnecessary. I, however, can’t wait to see it Shia’s bad acting notwithstanding. The trailer doesn’t give away much of the plot and I could do without the heavy guitar reverberation but overall, the premise of the movie and the timing of it’s release couldn’t be better timed.

The part with the rapper side stepping Gekko to get into the limousine is priceless. And Gordon’s quote pretty much sets the stage for the entire movie:

Someone recently reminded me I was once said ‘Greed is good’. Now it seems it’s legal. – Gordon Gekko, Money Never Sleeps

I just got chills down my spine… get em, Gordon. Get em! I’ve never before wanted to root for the bad guy so badly in a film. Michael Douglas seems to slide right back into the role. It seems Charlie Sheen will also be in the movie since he’s on the credits but the level of his character’s participation is questionable. It could be a small cameo or an important element of the plot. Time will tell.

The remaining cast rounds out with Josh Brolin and Frank Langella. Two complete bad asses when it comes to making a taught dramatic thriller. We also have newcomer Carey Mulligan as Gekko’s estranged daughter Winnie Gekko. A character that will no doubt play a central twist to the overall plot.

Money Never Sleeps comes out April 23rd. Greed is good, indeed.

The last time I played Twister I was eight years old at a birthday party. I got stuck in a round with the smelly kid. This looks like a WHOLE lot more fun.

I’ve been pouting on the sidelines for the past year about the craptastic movies that Hollywood seems to be pumping out these days. Nothing but unoriginal remakes or lame vampire movies. This year however, is shaping up quite nicely. We got another Iron Man on deck. An A-team remake that may not suck balls. Kick Ass is going to do exactly that. But the icing on the cake? Hot Tub Time Machine. I’m psyched out of my mind for this movie to come out. Check out the Trailers below.. note they are “red band” so they’re not so safe if you’re watching in class. The second one has boobies.

I rarely go out to the movies. I’m usually so disappointed by the dribble that Hollywood puts out that I don’t find it worth the time, effort and quite frankly the money to get my ass of the couch before a movie is ready on Netflix. But when I heard the James Cameron’s latest, AVATAR, was a “game changer” I figured I might as well shell out the $30 bucks to see it. And what did I get for my trouble? Dances with Wolves… in space.

Dances with Wolves in Space

If you loved Dances with Wolves, you’ll LOVE James Cameron’s AVATAR. They’re the same movie. I mean exactly.. the SAME movie. It’s kinda ridiculous. Here’s the plot excerpt for Dances with Wolves from IMDB:

Having been sent to a remote outpost in the wilderness of the Dakota territory during the American Civil War, Lieutenant John Dunbar encounters, and is eventually accepted into, the local Sioux tribe. He is known as “Dances with Wolves” to them and as time passes he becomes enamored by the beautiful “Stands With a Fist”. Not soon after, the frontier becomes the frontier no more, and as the army advances on the plains, John must make a decision that will not only affect him, but also the lives of the natives he now calls his people.

Now, let me replace the text with what I gathered from AVATAR:

Having been sent to a remote human outpost moon of Pandora during a mining operation, Corporal Jake Sully encounters, and is eventually accepted into, the local Na’Vi tribe. As time passes he becomes enamored by the beautiful Neytiri. Not soon after gung-ho Colonel Quaritch and a mercenary army advances on the Na’Vi, Jake must make a decision that will not only affect him, but also the lives of the natives he now calls his people.

Wes Studi

Add to all this, the Na’Vi actually sound like Native Americans. They ride horses, use bows and arrows and they even cast Wes Studi (Magua from Last of the Mohicans) to voice the main Na’Vi chief, Eytukan. I hope that puts to rest any questions you have about the plot of this movie. You won’t be shelling out your hard earned cash for great story.

What you will be shelling out that cash for is a rich and complex visual experience. If you don’t see this movie in 3D you are definitely wasting your time. I’m almost lamenting the fact that I didn’t see it in IMAX but a good big screen in 3D is still pretty good. I could have done without all the glowing, black light settings. I felt like I was at a bad frat party for a good bit of the movie. But the scenes where the Na’Vi were flying through the air were really amazing.

I don’t think AVATAR is a game changer but rather a stunning showcase of the latest technology that will be exploited in future movies.
