The Agrifolk Art Movement

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

Here’s a really funny documentary short I saw last night as part of the AFF done by David Moore of Eyekiss films. Check it out, you will laugh, and if you don’t, it’s definitely your problem. Music by The Georgia Fireflies.
The Agrifolk Art Movement:

Then continue with part 2 and part 3.

AFF

Yo, check it. Atlanta Film Festival starts today.

My Fucking Head Is a Supernova

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

Now I am going to pitch my new show for some Big Ass network. It’s called, “My Fucking Head is a Supernova,” and it’s about this guy (you could say it’s semi-autobiographical) that has these awesome powers, perhaps caused by some unknown event in the past, an accident in the laboratory with giant magnets, that [...]

PKD: What’s Next?

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

It’s always with mixed emotions and skepticism that I watch Hollywood adaptations of sci-fi writer Philip K. Dick’s work come into existence. The latest, Next, based on the short story “The Golden Man,” doesn’t look too promising by the trailer. But then again, Nick Cage promises that the film delivers a PKD mind-fuck. Oh golly. [...]

Zombies and Vampires

Friday, February 9th, 2007

Yesterday, browsing through the philosophy section in a bookstore, I noticed some peculiar titles: Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Philosophy: Fear and Trembling in Sunnydale, The Simpsons and Philosophy: The D’oh! of Homer , and The Undead and Philosophy: Chicken Soup for the Soulless. I knew that these pop-culture philosophy hybrid instructional books had become [...]

Fox Norris

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

Chuck Norris, perhaps the biggest GOP celebrity-clown since Ted Nugent, filled in for Hannity on Fox News the other night. Could it be that Fox is forsaking all appearances of responsible journalism for self-parodying performance art? The joke could be on us.
All I can say about Chuck’s website is that all websites are better with [...]

Idiocracy

Wednesday, January 24th, 2007

Finally watched Idiocracy, Mike Judge’s uber-satire of a dumb-as-rocks devolved human civilization 500 years in the future. I had been warned that the movie wasn’t that great, so had low expectations. Quite the opposite story of Children of Men, which carried the burden of so much critical acclaim you almost had to be disappointed within [...]

South Park Politics

Tuesday, December 5th, 2006

South Park Republican Libertarian. That’s more like it. Sometime during the last few years South Park has become my animated comedy of choice, taking the place of the Simpsons even. The cultural skewering is just so brutally and beautifully dead on, and the man-child within me cackles heartily at the potty humor. [...]

Battlestar America

Friday, October 27th, 2006

It finally happened, my first Battlestar Galactica dream, and confirmation to ubergeekdom.
In my dream, a war rattled planet Earth was occupied by Cylons much like happened to Caprica at the beginning of season one. Only in my dream the Cylons were a mix of the old and new cylons, it seems the new ones [...]

Kumar Pallana

Monday, September 11th, 2006

Everyone fell in love with Kumar in Bottle Rocket. Here’s the “who was that man?” scene:

He’s got a great spinning plates scene in The Terminal, but there’s so much more to his talent as will be witnessed in the forthcoming KUMAR: MY 88 YEAR OLD BEST FRIEND.

Many mistakenly believe that Wes Anderson and Owen [...]
