‘Nuff said - if you’re into that kind of thing. Here’s a skit from the ESPN Espy’s Award Show that broadcasted on Sunday. I’m choosing to believe that Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly ad libbed this skit, because they’re each funny enough to do it.
Now that everyone on the planet has gagged watching “2 Girls 1 Cup,” it’s time for something new and vulgar to trick your friends into watching.
Behold the next gross thing: CakeFarts (NSFW!!!)
Everybody likes cake.
And most people think farts are funny.
And naked ladies are awesome.
But nobody wants to see these three things combined.

We covered the unbelievably talented Adam Pesapane back in September with his stop-action films “Kaboom!”, “Game Over”, and “Human Skateboard”. Now, PES is back with an all new film, “Western Spaghetti.” Check it:

In short, Allison sees this ThreadPit t-shirt and says:
“I know where this is from, you have to see the movie!”
And she shows me the video clip from “Me and You and Everyone We Know” and it all made sense and I was laughing so hard I peed (NSFW):
Spread the word.
Back and forth, forever.

They call her La Gringita (”The Little White Girl”).
She is only 8.

Okay, I’ll admit it: I was looking up Daft Punk videos on YouTube. I came across this video, and I still don’t know what to make of it… except that this person’s fingers are a lot more flexible than mine.

And then there’s the obvious, poor choice in green bracelet jewelry.

Do you think George Lucas had this in mind when he made Star Wars?
Make sure you stick around for the Darth Vader crotchgrab at the end…

The movie War, Inc. finally came to a theater in my neighborhood.
Two words: “kick” and “ass.”
I loved it.
Brand Hauser (John Cusak) is an assassin on a mission in the war-torn mythle-eastern nation of Turaqistan. Hauser is posing as the producer of an arms convention, promoting Tamerlane military industries - the very corporation currently occupying the nation of Turaqistan. At the convention, Hauser meets journalist Natalie Hegalhuzen (Marisa Tomei) and obnoxious middle eastern pop star Yonica Babyyeah (Hilary Duff) . . . and all hell breaks loose in this Douglas Coupland-esque world.
War, Inc. has several of the best qualities of Cusak’s previous assassin dark comedy Grosse Pointe Blank - clever dialogue, a great soundtrack (that does not yet exist on iTunes, dammit), and several stellar fight/action scenes worthy of Martin Blank. This film also smelled heavily of Douglas Coupland and Naomi Klein’s “Baghdad Year Zero” (both of which are good smells).
Death Race - an upcoming remake of the 1975 film Death Race 2000 (starring David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone). Given that it’s already 2008, they decided to ditch the “2000” part in the new title.
