My girlfriend says that Megan Fox is the only other woman besides Rose McGowan that she’d “scissor”. As soon as I look up what that means, I’ll tell you if that’s something cool or not…
Until then, please enjoy these pics of Megan Fox in a wet dress from the new movie “How To Lose Friend And Alienate People”!
Full Clip Right Here:
We were on location at the premiere of Season 4/Season 3 DVD release of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”, one of the funniest shows currently on television. We asked some of the stars of the show about their experience working on the popular comedy program, a couple of rude personal questions and even one or two questions that had absolutely nothing to do with anything! I would say “that’s how we roll” but that would make me a douche, amirite? So just watch the goddamn video already!
Now with 100% less Kate Hudson!

A cursory glance at the big movies of the summer paints a very telling picture of the way roles are written for women in cinema these days… |
Maybe the closest thing to a serious acting gig for a chick would be the recently released Woody Allen picture, “Vicky Cristina Barcelona”, which appears to exist so that we can all watch Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz have a threesome with the guy from “No Country” because Woody Allen is finally too old to do it himself.
Javier and his friendos.
It seems like the days in which the “best actress” category at the Oscars (and their retarded stepbrother, the Golden Globes) were not a complete farce are long gone. Reese Witherspoon winning for sappy biopic like “Walk the Line”? Really? Or Hillary Swank for an over-promoted after school special like “Million Dollar Baby”? Jesus H. You have got to be kidding me. Where are all the serious actresses?
I, for one, am tired of all my movies being ruined by “actresses” that are perhaps better suited to print work, like Jessica Biel/Alba (same difference), pretentious broads like Kiera Knightly who over-value their own skill level, and bland TV actresses with no sex appeal like Katherine Hiegl. Who are this generation’s future legends? None of these women are likely to have a career that outlasts their 30th birthday.
Jessica Alba “acting” like a champion handjobbist.
With a little research I’ve come up with a list of ten actresses that may be just one great role away from timeless recognition. Or, at the very least, are reasonably tolerable. Read the rest of this entry →
Except for, like, most of them actually were…

It took me ages to get around to finishing this book, which has physically been through hell in a remarkable parallel to the stories contained within… |
…This book has been lost, found, forgotten (due to the recent purchase of an Xbox 360), dropped into a toilet at a cabin in Big Bear, left outside to dry, been run over, gone camping, been sexually harassed by an older book on MySpace, and found out that it was adopted. Nevertheless, I proudly soldiered on so that I could pass along my opinion to the three or four of you out there that actually still read books. So without further ado, please enjoy the long awaited review of “The Greatest Sci-Fi Movies never Made”!
Originally published in 2002, David Hughes’ recently revised book, “The Greatest Sci-Fi Movies Never Made” is an exhaustively researched and immensely fascinating look into just how inept the studio system really is. Even when handed over an incredible story that really require very little embellishment, every single one of these films quickly spirals out of control, with numerous screenwriters pushing the story further and further out of context, budgets spiraling out of control, and a revolving door of star directors and actors collecting paychecks to talk about what could have been in interviews. The title of the book is a little misleading because most of these movies actually have been made by now. But it’s more about what the movies could have been than it is about incomplete projects.
A page from Kevin Smith’s lost Superman script (lovingly rendered in crayon), in which Superman saves NASCAR from a diabolical monkey and says the word “feltch” a lot.
What’s truly fascinating about some of these stories, each of which plays out like it’s own individual little spy novel, is how some of the scripts that fail have their carcasses stripped and re-purposed for other films. “Men in Black” was essentially all the best parts of “The Tourist”, minus the dark drama elements. Spielberg’s horror picture “Night Skies” became “E.T.”, of all things. “EL Topo” director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s “Dune” became David Lynch’s “Dune”. It becomes apparent to the reader how important and universal some of the themes in science fiction really are (as well as how difficult it can be to protect one’s intellectual property).

In Canada, it’s just Season Four

Kenny Vs Spenny may be one of the funniest shows I have ever seen. Granted, my tastes are considerably lowbrow, but I have to call it like I see it and this season of Kenny Vs Spenny had me damn near shitting my pants with laughter. |
The premise of Kenny Vs Spenny is simple: two best friends enter into a series of friendly competitions that result in the loser being subjected to some kind of scarring humiliation. The competitions range from the obvious, like “who can blow the biggest fart” to the bizarre, like “who can be tied to a goat the longest”. The humiliations are almost always horrible, like making out with an old lady or rolling down a hill in a plastic ball filled with dog turds. No, I did not make that last part up.
These ten episodes were executive produced by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, which ratcheted up the humor in an already funny show. Kenny is such a dick and Spenny such a sad sack that you can’t help but suspend disbelief that some or all of the show may be staged and just enjoy the sadistic abuse levied upon poor Spenny. How “The Hills” became the de-facto pseudo-reality show when there’s something like Kenny Vs Spenny out there defies all logic. Read the rest of this entry →
Not quite what you would expect from Mike Judge…

I can vividly recall piling into the car with three or four other kids as a teenager, passing a doobie around on the way to “Spike and Mike’s Sick Twisted Festival of Animation” once every six months or so when it came to town. |
I am just old enough that when I was a teenager, there weren’t really any videos online, so this was the only way you could see, weird, experimental animated short films from around the world.
Sadly, with the onset of Youtube and high speed internet, interest in Spike and Mike dwindled and seemed to disappear. In stepped Beavis & Butthead creator Mike Judge and animator Don Hertzfeldt with a new touring show, “The Animation Show”. Unfortunately, The Animation Show does not seem to be faring any better.
This film, “City Paradise”, wasn’t even all that animated, to be perfectly honest.
It isn’t true to say that the films collected in Volume 3 are poor in quality, but rather that they don’t really make an effort to reach out to the broader audience outside of the art house crowd. While the majority of us have been accustomed to seeing thousands of clever, well animated, funny and coherent films popping up online faster than we can even watch them, it’s amazing how few of these films even come close to anything resembling story structure or comedic timing.
