Movie Review: World's Greatest Dad

HDNET is owned by the same company as Magnolia Pictures. In an attempt to gain subscribers, they show a sneak preview on their movie channel of upcoming limited theatrical releases. This month’s movie is called “World’s Greatest Dad”. The movie is written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, yes the guy from Police Academy is making movies. The movie stars Robin Williams as a single parent, aspiring writer, high school teacher with a porn addicted shithead of a son named Kyle. **SPOILER ALERT** The ass hole kid dies from auto-erotic asphyxiation (jerking to up-skirt pics of his dad’s girlfriend) and the “World’s Greatest Dad” covers it up to make it look like a suicide. When the phony suicide note is released to the school populous, the once hated Kyle becomes the most popular kid in school. Robin capitalizes on this new found popularity and ghost writes Kyle’s journal which rockets him into stardom.
**SAFE TO READ**
Robin Williams delivers yet another great performance. This movie has some great characters, a great story and never hesitates to go where conventional films will not. Final thoughts rent this movie if you can, because it is likely there will not be a wall of copies at Blockbuster. I will give it 4 out of 5 German Shizer Videos.

Tarantino's Take on Top Gun

Quentin Tarantino breaks down why Top Gun is about fighting homosexuality. Pretty funny stuff. This clip is from a movie called "Sleep With Me". FYI

Creative Dog Grooming

There is a lot of crazy shit on the internet, but this is pretty out there. Apparently there are contests around the US where people compete in unique poodle painting. What the hell is wrong with people? I think I would paint my dog to look a rhinoceros or a dirty crack whore. Either one would take the blue ribbon. Enjoy the pictures.

Movie Review: Inglorious Basterds

Image by →Unity via Flickr

I have to preface this by saying I am a big Tarantino fan, so I am a little biased toward anything he makes. That being said, the Basterds do not disappoint. This movie has all the traditional Tarantino earmarks we have come to enjoy. Basterds is nontraditional,violent, thoughtful and funny...dark...but funny. It has all the things I look for in a great movie. The only short coming to me is that we didn't get to as much time as I would have liked with the Bastreds. After all the movie carries their name, but they are hardly the stars of the movie. The Basterds play more of a co-staring roll to whom is affectionately referred to as "The Jew Hunter". If you walk into this movie thinking you are about to watch a movie about a band of Jewish American soldiers roving France killing Germans, you will not...well not entirely. It would not be a Tarantino flick if that were all there was to it. Nor do I think it would be as good a movie if that were all there was to it.
Final thoughts...run to see this movie, right now. I give it 5 swastika carved foreheads.

Jimmi Hendrix Hidden Lyrics

Ever hear the song "Third Stone From The Sun" by Jimmi Hendrix? No? Well click the link and give it a listen. Notice the deep slurring sound underneath the music? Apparently if sped up x2, it is a very audible conversation between Jimmi and his producer Chas Chandler. Listen to the Youtube clip to hear what they are saying. What a crazy ass dude.

TV Review: Shark Tank

I normally veg out the last few hours of the weekend on my couch in preparation for the weekend. It’s always a struggle to find something to watch this time of year. I stumbled upon this new summer replacement on ABC called the Shark Tank. The show places desperate entrepreneurs in front of a panel of blood thirsty investors. You might think the fact that these people are on television would make the want to cut honest deals with these people…not a chance. If they aren’t berating someone for wasting their money on a stupid idea they are presenting them with unreasonable investment deals. Much like a shark they can smell blood a mile away. The sadist in me loves this. Example: There was a 30 something school teacher who had invented a teaching tool. The tool utilizes songs he wrote to teach Shakespeare over rock style music. The entire teaching tool was complete; booklets, teachers manual, music and all. He was looking for 500,000 dollars for 15% of the business. The counter offer was 500,000 and 5% of royalties on the music he wrote and composed for 100% of the company spread across the entire panel. One of the panelist piped up with another offer, much to the chagrin of the other panelists. His rational was that their offer was absurd and that the guy would never be stupid enough to take it. Mind you this is all said in front of the teacher. He walked away to think, came back and made another counter offer to which the panel quickly dismissed. The panel saw that this man truly desired to be rich. So much so that he was willing to give up all of his hard work so quickly to get there. The worst thing was how they discussed how much of a stupid bad deal that was for that guy as they slapped fives. Check it out for yourself. It’s an interesting show, but I don’t think it will be on for long.

Anna Maria Surf

Here is a little video I made out of the pics and video I took on Sunday before we left the island. The surfers were out in full for due to the depression that formed that night. These guys arn't exactly shredding it up but it's still cool. I put a live cut of Sublime's "Bad Fish" underneath so crank up your speakers.

Movie Review: District 9

After much thinking, I am ready to give my review of District 9. My friend texted me right after I had seen it and all I could say is that it was very cool. Amber’s opinion was that it was weird. I agreed with her, but weird does not always equal bad. Now that I have given the movie sufficient time to set in I am going to say I liked it…a lot. It is probably one of my top five of the year. The story is very original, the effects are cool and I really like that South African accent (like a cross between Australian and French/German). The hesitation in my feelings comes from a couple of things. The lead character becomes infected by alien DNA and sets the movie into this manic tail spin. This, along with the inconsistency of camera styles wore me out. The director meshes documentary/interview, CCTV and third person styles of filming and it takes a little time to get used to. After you see your first guy get vaporized, you notice this less and less. District 9 will not have you leaving the theater with the warm and fuzzies, (no Randy Quade yelling “I’m back” while kamikaze style blowing up a spaceship) but it will have you thinking about what it was you just saw.
Side story…I saw some friends of mine walk into the theater and Amber did the whole “Hey I know you” thing. When the movie was over we waited for them to come out, but they never did. I texted her to see what happened and she said she walked out within the first 10 minutes. She said it was the worst movie she had ever seen. Lesson: I know now to never ask for her opinion on movies.
Final thoughts…go see this movie, but stay longer than 10 minutes even if you start to feel the urge to leave(crazy ass women). I give this movie 4.5 popping aborted prawn babies

Bikini Cinema: Pulp Fiction

Apparently someone has come up with the brilliant idea of putting girls in bikinis and having them recite dialogue from iconic movie scenes. This one is the famous "What does M. Wallace look like?" scene from Pulp Fiction. Enjoy

Anna Maria Island

For the second year in a row my wife and I felt like we need to bolt for our Anniversary. 9 years BTW. She found this old 50's reovated motel while looking for a place to stay for a friends wedding a few years back. We have been loyal partrons ever since.
Anna Maria is old Florida. No high rise hotels, McDonalds and mostly no tourist (non floridians). The beaches are made of fine white sand and are hardly ever crowded. We have grown to love this place over the years as most of my friends have.

I'll be here all weekend and should be able to post some more pics later.

Review: Revolutionary Road

If you like your movies incredibly depressing (i.e. Requiem For A Dream), Revolutionary Road will be right up your alley. This dark period piece could be a peak into the married life of any of us. It's about a couple stuck in the monotony of suburban life. The main characters even describe it as hopeless emptiness. A wannabe actress, a smooth talker in a dead-end job along with their seldom seen two kids are struggling to find their true happiness. To break free of their self imposed shackles they devise a plan to run off to Paris. This is where the fun of the movie occurs. The arguments feel just a little over the top at times but they keep you engrossed. Of the big name cast members, it's actually the "mentally ill" son of Kathy Bates character that stole the show for me.
Final thoughts...if you are in the mood for a good old fashion writs cut, rent Revolutionary Road. I'll give it 4 self administered abortions

Review: Funny People

First impression, I really liked this movie. It has it all. It's vulgar, a little dark, it invokes emotion and it has a pretty good story. Now let me add my real two cents. (SPOILER ALERT) They should have killed George off. That would have ended the movie about an hour sooner which they needed to any way. No comedy should ever be two and a half hours long...period. Apatow's first, The 40 Year Old Virgin, clocks in at just over two hours and I remember thinking that shit was too long as well. That being said, I would not have killed off the main character just to end to movie sooner. It makes the whole thing more memorable. You would have everyone in that theater walking out with tears in their eyes like Adam Sandler had really died. You play a little montage of funny moments over some good music as the credits roll to lighten it up a bit and BAM.... People would be talking about it all the way to their cars. Instead people are just wondering where the hell they parked because they have been in a movie theater for two and a half damn hours.
Final thoughts...go see this movie, just make sure your significant other takes the "big purse" and fills it with plenty of snacks. I'll give it 4 quick trips to the bathroom
Don't forget to Check out the Raaaaaaaandy stuff.

New Eminem song: The Warning

I have not been a fan of Eminem in quite a while, but I think he is at his best when he has an adversary. This hot off the press release is entitled The Warning. In it Em hits his supposed ex Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon with some pretty nasty lyrics. Check it out...apparently he has pics.
