If you can’t trust your shadowy overlords to keep it secret, what is the purpose, really, of voting in the public democracy?

The 80th Annual Academy Awards, hosted by Jon Stewart [in real time].

I am, by no means, an expert when it comes to predictions. Some of the films I haven’t even seen. But this is my blog and I do what I want. I only make “predictions” in 21 of the 24 categories. I exclude the three shorts: Documentary, Animated, and Live Action. [...]

Awww. Breaking the law can be so cute.

Not to be outdone, the GOP had their own video made to scare the shit out of all of us. It looks like a bad parody of 24, a show they obviously didn’t study very well.

In advance of Sunday night’s Academy Award’s telecast, Slate V put together this little retrospect of horrible movies that Oscar winners have gone on to make. Missing are the obvious blunders, like Halle Berry’s Catwoman or even Raul Julia’s farewell performance in Street Fighter: The Movie. Instead, Slate looks at the post Oscar [...]

This is utterly retarded. Fox News recently conducted a poll to see who voters would vote for if the election was held today. It’s not the results of the Presidential poll that are interesting though. It’s the very bottom of the article that deals with one of the other questions asked of [...]

Variety reports that Terry Gilliam has found a workaround for his new film The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus that will allow for the preservation of the scenes Heath Ledger filmed before his untimely death last month. Instead of recasting Ledger’s role entirely, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell will all play the same [...]

Guess what? Indy’s back. Check out the teaser trailer below….

The New York Times’ Patricia Cohen elaborates on a couple of new books that discuss how anti-intellectualism (the attitude that “too much learning can be a dangerous thing”) and anti-rationalism (“the idea that there is no such things as evidence or fact, just opinion”) have fused in a particularly insidious way.
I wonder how Miss Information [...]

Ralph Wiggum is running for President. That is all.

I dig the Wig.

If haven’t seen the trailer for the upcoming Michel Gondry comedy Be Kind Rewind, then you might not appreciate the following parody as much. Basically, the premise of Be Kind Rewind is that Jack Black and Mos Def work in a video store where all of the VHS tapes have been magnetically erased, [...]

At the end of the third season of LOST, Desmond told Charlie that he had one of his flashes and in it he saw Claire board a helicopter with Aaron and leave the island….

Bears were the topic of conversation all day long, in just about every class of mine. Now I get online and stumble across these graphic images of a brutal bear attack.

Oh, the humanity!
Oh, the unbearable cuteness!

The Senate voted 69-29 to pass the FISA Bill today. What’s the FISA Bill, you ask? Well, it allows for the government to spy on all citizens (that’s us) and provides immunity from prosecution for the telecom companies that make it possible.
John McCain was one of the 69 senators who [...]

Now that the Writer’s Strike is over, the TV industry, can start picking up the pieces. According to The New York Times, some shows will resume production immediately, while others will sit out the rest of the season.
24, which already had the start of its seventh season delayed indefinitely, will now sit [...]

Earlier, I posted some thoughts regarding the appearance of John McCain and Mike Huckabee, in particular this unflattering picture. For some reason it really got me thinking outside the box. As a result, all sorts of satirical ideas popped into my head. I began to amend said post when it started to [...]

I ganked the above image from TPM because, well, as George W. Bush has shown us over the last seven years, politicians can look goofy.
McCain looks like a Batman villain work-in-progress (the Maverick, mayhaps?) And Huckleberry, as I like to call him, looks, ironically, like one of them flamboyant gays I keep reading about. [...]

Last night’s episode of LOST was by far one of the best in the show’s history. It raised a lot new questions but, more importantly, it answered a lot too. It’s apparent now more than ever that the writers and producers know where they’re going. Before I offer my own insight, I [...]

Someone has way too much time on his hands…
