Video of the Day

I needed a little comedy this morning, and then this popped up on my playlist's shuffle.

The youngest of my kiddos started at a new babysitter this morning, and he was extremely clingy and weepy when I dropped him off. I hated leaving, but I had to get the other kiddos where they needed to be, and I needed to get to work. So this song helped put a smile on my face (and the song works better when watching the video, too).

I've been getting photos via text from the babysitter, and it looks like the little guy is settling in quite nicely. Makes me happy.

I don't think I need to say anything other than Kenny Powers IS Darth Vader.



This 15-year-old girl going all beat-box on a flute is amazing. I would have been friends with more floutists in high school if they were able to do this.



I didn't want to post this because I didn't want to give this damn "church" any more publicity, but it's the Foo Fighters, and this helps to prove their awesomeness.



Once again I missed the Emmys, and these clips make me wish I hadn't.

Here's Jane Lynch's full intro. Most of it is only slightly below average, but the Mad Men stuff is wonderful. I tried to cut out the bad stuff, but I couldn't. If I did this correctly, though, the video should start at the right time.



I've never watched Mike & Molly, so I don't know how deserving the winner for Best Actress in a Comedy Series was, but I refuse to believe she was better than Pollen, Fey or Plimpton. Regardless, the presentation of nominees and the winner's speech were excellent.



This was my favorite of the dreadful Emmytones. I felt bad for Joel McHale and Zachary Levi, only slightly bad for Colby Smothers.



Despite the talent involved in this (Andy Samburg, Emma Stone, Bill Hader, Zach Galifiankis, Seth Rogen, Ken Jeong, Ed Helms, Emma Stone, Samuel L. Jackson ['cause he's in everything], Aziz Ansari), it's a big pile of meh at best. But hey, it's funny people delivering bad Star Wars lines, so there's a BIT of entertainment to be had, and Emma Stone is just a delight to watch.



I don't have time to watch all the late-night talk shows that I want to, so I'm glad highlights are almost instantly available. And I applaud Conan for his reaction to Nicole Scherzinger's bust (PUN!).



I like Joseph Gordon-Levitt as much as the next guy, but this movie looks like a joke. It looks like the plot of a '90s action movie with dialogue that is just corny as hell.

This trailer has no dialogue, just two minutes of pure action and violence, and I want to see the movie so badly now. And the music is by Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park, so that's a plus.



It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia outtakes? I guess I know what I'm going to be doing this morning.



More Star Wars fun! This time we let Porkins have the day he deserves.



And here we have Vader reacting to various things.



I watched this video, like, 10 times and I STILL don't know how to play rugby. And I'm sleepy.

Probably for the rest of the month I’m going to whore myself out with an impassioned plea: click on the ads. PLEASE click on the ads. I don’t care if you exit it out of it immediately or actually look around. This isn’t some professional blog where I believe in the products I’m shilling. These are automatic ads placed by Google. But my experiment this weekend proved to me that I actually AM making a spot of cash whenever the ads are clicked. So I’m going to put this little disclaimer on the bottom of all my posts for the next month or so, and I hope you’ll take an extra 10 seconds after reading my blog to click on an ad. Thanks so much!

Dealing-with-It Video Constitutional

In honor of all the people who spent time on the water this past holiday weekend, here are some videos so you can remember the good times you had.





Also, because I miss The League on FX and can't wait for the 3rd season, here are all of Taco's songs and miscellania that I could find. The first one is a song he sang in the first episode, but YouTube won't let me embed it, so here's a live version. It's better, though, when he's singing it at a five year old's birthday party.















Go Muscles Glasses, go!!! I always wonder how long it takes to eat all this crap, and how much of it is actually eaten.



I really like Joseph Gordon-Levitt. This looks utterly depressing. I still want to see it.



Here's the latest video from the latest Foo Fighters album, Wasting Light. It's for "Walk," my favorite track from the album, and it's kind of been my theme song since I heard it in April. I'm glad there's a video for it. And then go track down the Michael Douglas movie "Falling Down" if you haven't seen it. It's a good one that the video "borrowed" heavily from.

Memorial Day Weekend Video Constitutional

Here's the teaser for the next season of True Blood.

The the live action Ambiguously Gay Duo sketch from this past weekends Saturday Night Live. It's not all that funny, but the cameos are fun to watch.



AHHHH!!! AHHHHHHH!!! DEMON!!!! IT'S A DEMON!!!!! BURN IT BEAT IT KILL IT DEAD!!!!



THIS is the Epic Meal Time episode that almost made me throw up at my desk. I'm totally fine with all the meat stuff, but I don't have a sweet tooth like I used to.



This should be a commercial. Parents like me would get one of these for their kids based on this clip alone.



In the past 33 years my parents have owned three beagles, so I have a bit of a soft spot in my heart for them. Here's a video of one who has learned how to catch a ball with his paws.



Can't say this is my favorite Epic Meal Time, but it's not bad.



Not as good as Dick in a Box, but I think I like 3-Way better than Motherlover.



I recently had a Parks and Recreation marathon and was pleased and surprised when Louis C.K. showed up. It really made me miss his show. But it's coming back next month! Yay!



New trailer for the new season of True Blood. I got a little giddy.



Okay, I was really prepared not to enjoy the latest installment of Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis. It's wo actors who can be over-the-top, and I expected them to out over-the-top each other to the point of eye rolling. Didn't happen. The stuff with the food and John Hamm was briliant.

Christmas Video Constitutional

I loved the first two of these, so I'm expecting to like this one. Plus, it's named after my favorite STar Wars meme! The trailer, though, did not have me laughing nearly as much as Something Something Something Dark Side did.



The Green Hornet looks...good?

I enjoyed the first season of Spartacus on Starz. Apparently the lead has had to be recast after the star, Andy Whitfield, developed and went through treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Starz decided to do a prequel mini while we wait. Here's the trailer.



I just don't know anymore. I don't WANT to post this, but I feel like I have to. And the kicker? It's not even Japanese.



Would this be as funny if the Inception music weren't behind it? Probably not.



I don't like being around cats, but I kind of love watching them.



Newest digital short. Nice.



Too...much...meat.

We're Back! Video Dump

I've never read the comic, but this movie looks all sorts of awesome. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.



Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert join Conan O'Brien on stage for a dance-off...the Andy Richter shoots Stewart.



Tosh.0 is back!!!!!!

Gonna have to see Dinner for Shmucks. Yup, gonna have to see it.



I wasn't good at the video game, and I never saw the other movies because they looked horrible...but this is a pretty kick-ass trailer for a new Mortal Kombat movie.



Having an immortal dog might not be as awesome as you might think.



A boombox can change the world. You've gotta know your limits with a boombox.



I thought I had posted this already, but I couldn't find it, so here are...all?...of Terry Crews' Old Spice commercials. Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-POWER!!!



First trailer for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, the next Narnia installment.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader - Theatrical Trailer | Movies & TV | SPIKE.com

Best Scott Pilgrim trailer I've seen yet.



Despite Luke Wilson, you've got Giovanni Ribisi, James Caan, and I'm pretty sure I saw a brief glimpse of Kevin Pollack, three excellent reasons to watch any movie. Then you've got the added bonus of this being about the rise of Internet porn, and it becomes captivating.

Another Friday Video Dump

It's the only Vampire stuff I've enjoyed since Angel was cancelled. Here's the new trailer for the third season of HBO's True Blood.

Season 3 Preview 1

From the creator of Arrested Development and starring Will Arnett, how can this NOT be good?



Another SNL digital short winner!!



Letterman will always be my favorite late-night talk show host. Here's his Top 10 List with Lost finale spoilers.

These are pictures I've come across that I think are slightly awesome.

Hot Rod (Movie Review)

Don’t go into this movie expecting a comedic masterpiece. It’s not. But if you like juvenile humor, if you like some pretty rough physical comedy, and if you like movies where the dorky guy gets the incredibly hot girl, you should be mildly amused by this movie. It’s also one of those weird movies that you can’t really figure out when it takes place, like Napoleon Dynamite and Balls of Fury. All of the characters seem to be firmly planted in the ‘80s, but there are a few references to modern things. I can never figure out if that adds to or detracts from the humor. I guess I’m over thinking it.

I think Andy Samburg is great on Saturday Night Live, but he’s not quite good enough to carry his own movie. There were some chuckles, but most of the gags were pretty much expected. Isla Fisher is gorgeous. That’s all I have to say about her. Just...wow. Will Arnett has a relatively small part in the movie, but he’s a dick, and he’s best when he’s playing a dick. Bill Hader and Chris Parnell, two more SNL cast members, also show up. They bring the funny, too.

This movie is definitely worth a rent, and if these types of comedies are your thing, then you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not having it in your collection. And we really do learn who the winner is of the biggest fight of all time. No, not astronauts vs. cavemen, but taco vs. grilled cheese.
